Sensors for AM

MONITORS THE QUALITY OF AM PROCESS AND PARTS

Whereas additive manufacturing (AM) gives industry unique design and manufacturing flexibility, the certification of the parts still presents significant challenges. This is the main bottleneck hindering the massive growth of metal AM. Our product and services contribute to solve this issue

Visualizing quality issues

Differences in material quality are directly detected using our electromagnetic sensors.

These differences can be caused by changes in the process parameters or by localised defects. Early warnings are generated using these data.

Exploring the response of lattices to eddy currents

Exploring the response of lattices to eddy currents

It is now well documented that eddy currents can significantly contribute to the QC and NDT of additively manufactured parts, either during the process or in post processing. To fully deploy its potential, the technique has to demonstrate its value for low density structures such as lattices, which are now commonly manufactured with PBF-LB.
