摘要：
The Programmatic Lattice Generator (PLG) is a software tool for generating lattice structures through the repetition of strut based lattice unit cells. The code has an extended library of unit cell topologies and additional functionality. It provides information on connectivity, length, orientation and printability of each strut element. The code has been used to generate lattice geometry for finite element models and additively manufactured parts presented in multiple peer-reviewed journal articles. This software has been extended to include tools that aid in the deployment of optimal AM structures including radial transformations and manufacturability assessment.
