ICTM Aachen – International Center for Turbomachinery ManufacturingAnalysis of Melt Pool Monitoring Data for Evaluation of Material Properties and Process Stability in LMD
How to analyze and correlate LMD melt pool monitoring data in a geometry-oriented approach with material properties?
Challenge and Motivation
- Thermal process control in LMD is strongly influenced by process parameters and part geometry.
- Systematic correlation between melt pool data and material properties has not yet been little studied for AM specimen.
- Correlation is to be enabled by spatially resolved data acquisition and geometry-oriented analysis.
Objective
- Complementation of melt pool temperature data with melt pool image KPIs.
- Methodology for geometry-oriented measurement data analysis.
- Correlation of measurement data & material properties.
