1. A 3D model slicing method comprising:
receiving, by a 3D model slicing system, an input of data of a 3D model to 3D print;
examining, by the 3D model slicing system, a dimension of a layer thickness of the inputted 3D model;
determining whether a concavo-convex portion is detected within a layer of the inputted 3D model;
determining whether to preserve an overall dimension of the 3D model or to preserve a minimum width of the 3D model in priority;
based on the determining that the concavo-convex portion is detected within the layer of the inputted 3D model and based on the determining whether to preserve the overall dimension of the 3D model or to preserve the minimum width of the 3D model in priority, determining a compensation area corresponding to the concavo-convex portion and adding the compensation area to the layer of the inputted 3D model for slicing;
correcting, by the 3D model slicing system, a size of the layer for slicing, based on a result of the examining and a result of the determining the compensation area and the adding; and
slicing, by the 3D model slicing system, the corrected 3D model.
