This article describes the use of computer-aided techniques to produce a wax pattern of a missing ear. A 3-dimensional (3-D) computer model of a conventional cast from a patient was obtained using an optical surface capture device (scanner). The 3-D computer model was inverted, using computer-aided design software. A physical thermoplastic (wax) pattern of the inverted 3-D cast was produced using a rapid prototyping (RP) machine.
本文介绍了使用计算机辅助技术制作缺失耳朵的蜡型。使用光学表面捕捉设备(扫描仪)获得了患者传统铸件的三维(3-D)计算机模型。使用计算机辅助设计软件将该三维计算机模型进行反转。使用快速成型(RP)机器制作了反转后的三维铸件的物理热塑性(蜡)模型。
