contents A novel approach for creating tool paths for continuous carbon fiber-reinforced thermoplastic 3D printing is introduced. The aim is to enable load-bearing connections while avoiding non-manufacturable crossings of paths by generating layer specific patterns. We require a graph representation of the structural design with given desired continuous fiber connections. From this, optimal fiber patterns are obtained for each printing layer by solving linear integer optimization problems. Each layer may have a unique solution based on the history of the previous layers. Additionally, a path planning approach is presented which interprets the obtained layers via curves based on quadratic and cubic Bézier splines and their offset curves in constant distance. The single parameter for the construction of the paths is the minimal turning radius of the fibers. The path planning provides a new interpretation for the final geometry of the design to be printed.
