Measurement of powder bed density in powder bed fusion additive manufacturing processes

October 5, 2016
Author(s)
Gregor Jacob, M A. Donmez, Shawn P. Moylan, John A. Slotwinski
There are many factors influencing the additive manufacturing (AM) processes resulting in high degree of variation in process outcomes. Therefore, quantifying these factors and their correlations to the process outcomes are important challenges to overcome

Influence of Scan Strategy and Process Parameters on Microstructure and Its Optimization in Additively Manufactured Nickel Alloy 625 via Laser Powder Bed Fusion

September 23, 2016
Author(s)
Yigit Arisoy, Luis Criales, Tugrul Ozel, Brandon Lane, Shawn P. Moylan, Alkan Donmez
Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) as an additive manufacturing process produces nearly fully dense nickel alloy 625 (IN625) parts with complex features. L-PBF generates surfaces and microstructure through directional solidification that can be controlled by

CHALLENGES IN TOLERANCE TRANSFER FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

September 22, 2016
Author(s)
Gaurav Ameta, Shawn P. Moylan, Paul Witherell
Abstract: From the design point of view, datum features are used to imply design intent of particular function of the part or sequence of assembly of components in a product. Each feature in a part could potentially have different datum reference based on

Using Design of Experiments in Finite Element Modeling to Identify Critical Variables in Laser Powder Bed Fusion

August 11, 2016

Li Ma, Jeffrey T. Fong, Brandon Lane, Shawn P. Moylan, James J. Filliben, N. Alan Heckert, Lyle E. Levine
In Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) Finite Element Analysis (FEA), input of accurate material and simulation parameters is critical for accurate predictions. It is challenging and expensive to measure and control all possible material properties and process

Design, Developments, and Results from the NIST Additive Manufacturing Metrology Testbed (AMMT)

Brandon M. Lane, Sergey Mekhontsev, Steven E. Grantham, Mihaela Vlasea, Justin G. Whiting, Ho Yeung, Jason C. Fox, Clarence J. Zarobila, Jorge E. Neira, Michael L. McGlauflin, Leonard M. Hanssen, Shawn P. Moylan, M A. Donmez, Joseph P. Rice
NIST is developing a facility titled the Additive Manufacturing Metrology Testbed that will enable advanced research into monitoring, controls, process development, and temperature measurement for laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing and similar

Variation of Emittivity with Powder Bed Fusion Build Parameters

August 4, 2016
Author(s)
Jarred C. Heigel, Brandon M. Lane, Shawn P. Moylan
Common approaches to process monitoring of powder bed fusion rely heavily on optical measurements. These measurements can be used to verify powder spreading, assess the quality of each layer, and to measure process temperatures. In regards to the latter

Synchrotron 4-dimensional imaging of two-phase flow through porous media

July 13, 2016
Author(s)
Felix H. Kim, D. Penumadu, P. Patel, X. Xiao, E. J. Garboczi, Shawn P. Moylan, M A. Donmez
Near real-time visualization of complex two-phase flow in a porous medium was demonstrated with dynamic 4D (3D + time) imaging at the 2-BM beam line of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory. Advancing fluid fronts through tortuous

Powder Bed Layer Geometry

June 27, 2016
Author(s)
Michael L. McGlauflin, Shawn P. Moylan
This paper investigates the measurement of machine performance errors associated with the powder bed geometry of a commercially available laser additive manufacturing (AM) machine. The methodology is based on existing ISO/ANSI standards as employed in

Multiple Sensor Detection of Process Phenomena in Laser Powder Bed Fusion

May 20, 2016
Author(s)
Brandon M. Lane, Eric P. Whitenton, Shawn P. Moylan
Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is an additive manufacturing (AM) process in which a high power laser melts metal powder layers into complex, three-dimensional shapes. LPBF parts are known to exhibit relatively high residual stresses, anisotropic
