| Abstract Scope |
A growing number of industries are exploiting the design freedom afforded by AdditiveManufacturing. Highly regulated industries, however, have been slow to adopt thetechnology due to limited confidence in repeatability and the large costs associated withqualifying new processes.Alloyed’s experience in empirical qualification of the LPBF process has prompted us todevelop digital tools, to accelerate qualification programmes and give greater confidencein component performance. This incorporates evaluation of material modelling forpredicting component performance and in-process monitoring for earlier assessment ofanomalous builds.In this presentation, we will critically compare empirical and digital qualification andpropose how a hybrid approach can get LPBF components in service, quicker. |
