“…They represent a value in a regular grid in 3Dspace. Voxels have been used in various applications like computer graphics, medicine and robot perception [32,33,34]. The advantage of using voxels is that it reduces computationally expensive steps such as meshing, mapping, volume integration and matrix-based solution methods [35].…”

The manufacturing sector is experiencing a transformation to Industry 4.0. The authors are researching 3D printable sensors to measure operating conditions like wear, strain and temperature, as part of a project to develop a large-scale multi-material extrusion 3D printer to print a Gravity Separation Spiral (GSS) -a piece of mining equipment that separates minerals from slurry. This paper proposes a sensor placement methodology for placing embedded sensors in large 3D printed objects. Voxels, the 3D equivalent of 2D pixels, are used to discretise the object and an optimisation routine optimally positions the 3D printable sensors into a 3D printed object. The optimisation objectives that are used during sensor placement include the information gain from the sensor, the ability to print the sensor using a robot, and the ability to discourage sensors being placed in important structural locations by penalising these voxels. Finite element analysis is employed to measure the information gain, while the robot arm's manipulability measures the capability to print at each voxel location. The objectives are integrated using 3D kernels, which are represented by voxels shaped in the size of the sensor and different weights related to the intricate traces that need to be printed. Using a weighted objective function the best locations are chosen. A simulation environment has been devel-
