Abstract
This paper first apply high dimension complex and self-square function J(z)=z2+c to generate special data set on 3D fractal, then take the set as the research object and produce the related STL model through the partition by its symmetry character and the triangulation of the consequent set, at last adopt Rapid Prototype technique to manufacture the fractal object by the CAD model. This research and technique route not only solve the problem that fractal can only be simulated and the related object can not be manufactured owing to the complex surface, but also build the bridge connecting fractal, CAD and CAM, which is an important experiment and innovation in fractal application research.
