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

Identifying uncertainty in laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing models

September 4, 2016
Author(s)
Felipe F. Lopez, Paul W. Witherell, Brandon M. Lane
As additive manufacturing (AM) matures, models are beginning to take a more prominent stage in design and process planning for AM. A limitation frequently encountered in AM models is a lack of indication about their precision and accuracy. Often overlooked

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

August 11, 2016
Author(s)
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

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

Laser Path Planning and Power Control Strategies for Powder Bed Fusion Systems

August 9, 2016
Author(s)
Ho Yeung, Jorge Neira, Brandon Lane, Jason Fox, Felipe F. Lopez
In laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing process, laser scan path, velocity, and power are some of the most important parameters affecting the build quality. Control strategies for laser path and power are implemented and tested on a prototype

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

Identifying uncertainty in Laser Powder Bed Fusion models

June 30, 2016
Author(s)
Felipe F. Lopez, Paul Witherell, Brandon Lane
A limitation frequently encountered in additive manufacturing (AM) models is a lack of indication about their precision and accuracy. Often overlooked, information on model uncertainty is required for validation of AM models, qualification of AM-produced

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
