Abstract
This paper discusses the improvements acquired by the introduction of a tracking controller and a look-ahead trajectory-planning policy in part fabrication using the layer manufacturing process. The improvements are quantified not only in terms of tracking and contouring errors, but they are also quantified in terms of overfilled and underfilled areas, thus directly relating the quality of parts fabricated through such a process
