Abstract
A computer-based workflow management method is provided for use in connection with a process for printing an object with a three-dimensional printer. The method includes executing a request queue phase comprising receiving instructions for defining a request for printing the object; executing an anatomic modeling phase comprising generating an anatomic three-dimensional model representing the object; and executing a build phase comprising printing an object in response to the generated anatomic model. The method includes generating and displaying various user interface screens programmed for visualizing different aspects of phases or stages of the three-dimensional printing process.
