| Abstract Scope |
Recent advancements in sensing technologies and data analytics tools have significantly accelerated the development of directed energy deposition (DED), particularly in Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM). Majority of current in-situ process monitoring techniques are focused on detecting inconsistencies in the deposition process and linking them to potential defects. In this presentation, a multimodal sensor fusion approach for real-time in-situ monitoring of the WAAM process will be introduced. This monitoring suite integrates various process parameters including welding current, voltage, robot positional data, and wire feed characteristics with external sensors such as acoustic, high frequency current, and thermal sensors. This integration creates a spatiotemporally registered dataset that offers deep insights into the process dynamics. Additionally, correlations between the microstructural properties of the fabricated part and the real-time data collected during the deposition process will be presented and discussed. |
