In LPBF, the path a laser takes, or scan pattern followed, as the beam travels across the top layer of powder. Raster patterns consist of parallel lines drawn back and forth across a build layer. The orientation of the lines can vary in patches or be uniform for an entire layer. In FDM/FFM it refers to the pattern used to sparsely fill the interior of a given layer.
