Abstract Scope |
Dimensional qualification of AM components is a continuing research problem. Different measurement techniques implemented on the same feature can yield different measurement results. While this can also be true for components made from more traditional manufacturing processes, the deviations between measurement techniques are often increased by an order of magnitude due to a larger degree of form and surface texture variations which occur on AM components. Understanding the origins of deviations and comparability of measurement processes is crucial to the measurement of AM components. In this work, 30 identically designed components are produced using a laser powder-bed fusion process. The components are then measured using manual gaging and a coordinate measurement machine. Two different measurands are evaluated and the deviations between two measurement and various feature fitting methods are contrasted. Statistical analysis is performed to determine the comparability between the measurement techniques. |
