AM Bench 2022 Macroscale Tensile Challenge at Different Orientations (CHAL-AMB2022-04-MaTTO) and Summary of Predictions

January 16, 2024
Author(s)
Newell Moser, Jake Benzing, Orion Kafka, Jordan Weaver, Nicholas Derimow, Ross Rentz, Nik Hrabe
The additive manufacturing benchmarking challenge described in this work was aimed at the prediction of average stress–strain properties for tensile specimens that were excised from blocks of non-heat-treated IN625 manufactured by laser powder bed fusion

Powder Spreading Testbed for Studying the Powder Spreading Process in Powder Bed Fusion Machines

November 29, 2023
Author(s)
Justin Whiting, Eric Whitenton, Aniruddha Das, Vipin Tondare, Jason Fox, Michael McGlauflin, Alkan Donmez, Shawn P. Moylan
The spreading of powder is an integral part of powder bed fusion-based additive manufacturing technologies; however, due to the complex nature and the number of interactions between particles, studying the powder spreading process is difficult. In order to

Layered Security Guidance for Data Asset Management in Additive Manufacturing

November 23, 2023
Author(s)
Fahad Milaat, Joshua Lubell
Manufacturing industries are increasingly adopting additive manufacturing (AM) technologies to produce functional parts in critical systems. However, the inherent complexity of both AM designs and AM processes render them attractive targets for cyber

Modeling of hierarchical solidification microstructures in metal additive manufacturing: Challenges and opportunities

October 31, 2023
Author(s)
Dilip K. Banerjee, Supriyo Ghosh, Julien Zollinger, Miha Zaloznik, Christopher Newman, Raymundo Arroyave
Metal-based additive manufacturing (AM) processes often produce parts with improved properties compared to conventional manufacturing and metal working routes. However, currently, only a few alloys can be reliably additively manufactured as the vast

Enhanced strength of additively manufactured Inconel 718 by means of a simplified heat treatment strategy

October 27, 2023
Author(s)
Jake Benzing, Nicholas Derimow, Orion Kafka, Nik Hrabe, Philipp Schumacher, Don Godfrey, Chad Beamer, Priya Pathare, Jay Carroll, Ping Lu, Isaiah Trujillo, Frank DelRio
This study simplified the heat treatment route and reduced the post-processing burden for laser powder bed fusion IN718 (a nickel-based superalloy). The tailored route retained advantageous microstructures and improved tensile strength when compared to the

Polybutadiene Click Chemistry: A Rapid and Direct Method for Vat Photopolymerization

October 10, 2023
Author(s)
Levi Moore, Van Michael Saludo, Oliver Grasdal, Kayleen Smith, Thomas Kolibaba, Jason Killgore, Jacob Marcischak, Jeremy Snyder, Gregory Yandek, Kamran Ghiassi
Thiol-ene click chemistry was utilized to crosslink unmodified commercial liquid polybutadiene, and complex geometries were printed using vat photopolymerization. Polybutadiene contains reactive moieties as a result of its production process, and were used

Part Deflection Measurements of AM-Bench IN718 3D Build Artifacts

October 6, 2023
Author(s)
Maxwell Praniewicz, Jason Fox, Jared Tarr
One of the primary barriers for adoption of additive manufacturing (AM) had been the uncertainty in the performance of AM parts due to residual stresses/strains. The rapid melting and solidification which occurs during AM processes result in high residual

Vision on metal additive manufacturing: Developments, challenges and future trends

September 14, 2023
Author(s)
Alain Bernard, Jean-Pierre Kruth, Jian Cao, Gisela Lanza, Stefania Bruschi, Marion Merklein, Tom Vaneker, Michael Schmidt, John Sutherland, Alkan Donmez, Eraldo da Silva
Additive Manufacturing (AM) is one of the disruptive technologies to fabricate components, parts, assemblies or tools in various fields of application due to its main characteristics such as direct digital manufacturing, ability to offer both internal and

Effects of as-built surface with varying number of contour passes on high-cycle fatigue behavior of additively manufactured nickel alloy 718

August 5, 2023
Author(s)
Orion Kafka, Jake Benzing, Nicholas Derimow, Philipp Schumacher, Lucas Koepke, Chad Beamer, Donald Godfrey, Nik Hrabe
High cycle fatigue life of laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) parts depends on several factors; as-built surfaces, when present, are a particular concern. This work measures as-built L-PBF surfaces with X-ray computed tomography, and uses rotating beam

A Data-Driven Approach to Complex Voxel Predictions in Grayscale Digital Light Processing Additive Manufacturing Using U-nets and Generative Adversarial Networks

July 6, 2023
Author(s)
Jason Killgore, Thomas Kolibaba, Benjamin Caplins, Callie Higgins, Jake Rezac
Machine learning models such as U-nets like the pix2pix conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) are shown to predict 3D printed voxel geometry in digital light processing (DLP) additive manufacturing. The models are trained on microscopic voxel

Characterization of Die-Swell in Thermoplastic Material Extrusion

July 5, 2023
Author(s)
Austin Colon, David Kazmer, Amy Peterson, Jonathan Seppala
Die-swell is a flow effect that occurs in polymer extrusion whereby the material experiences rapid stress and dimensional changes upon exiting the nozzle orifice. Material extrusion additive manufacturing is no exception, and this effect influences the

High-resolution Melt Pool Thermal Imaging for Metals Additive Manufacturing Using the Two-color Method with a Single Color Camera

July 5, 2023
Author(s)
Alexander Myers, Guadalupe Quirarte, Francis Ogoke, Brandon Lane, Syed Uddin, Amir Barati Farimani, Jack Beuth, Jonathan Malen
We introduce an experimental method to image melt pool temperature with a single commercial color camera and compare the results with multi-physics computational fluid dynamic (CFD) models. This approach leverages the principle of two-color (i.e
