ABSTRACT
The challenge addressed is to make real solid models (which can be felt and seen in 3D) of Möbius-Listing prototypes proposed by mathematical equations. The mathematical objects were generated by Wolfram Mathematica 8 and Autodesk 3ds-Max. Both programs provided versions in stereolithography format (STL). The objects were first printed with a 3D printer, with the chiral objects in a different color to distinguish them or for comparison purposes. In order to prepare future prototypes for milling in a 5-axis milling machine, we used Edgecam CAM software for their design and manufacture.
