AI Technical Summary
In additive manufacturing, monitoring and detecting defects within sealed chambers with limited space and obstructed visual access is challenging, making it difficult to predict potential failure modes in parts being formed.
A system with multiple sensors collects physical property data from each layer during manufacturing, aggregating and comparing this data to generate a model that identifies potential failure modes, allowing for real-time defect detection and adjustment of manufacturing parameters to prevent failure propagation.
Enables the detection of potential defects such as voids or cracks within additive manufactured parts, allowing for corrective actions during the process, thereby improving the reliability and quality of the final product.
