Abstract

X-ray Computed Tomography (XCT) revealed pore structure and defects of additively manufactured metal parts produced with various processing parameters. A thresholding procedure involving a local thresholding algorithm was developed where the local thresholding parameter was found from the image itself. Qualitative analysis of AM pore structure and quantitative measurements of engineering parameters were carried out based on the thresholded images.
