Powder Spreading Testbed for Studying the Powder Spreading Process in Powder Bed Fusion Machines

November 29, 2023
Author(s)
Justin Whiting, Eric Whitenton, Aniruddha Das, Vipin Tondare, Jason Fox, Michael McGlauflin, Alkan Donmez, Shawn P. Moylan
The spreading of powder is an integral part of powder bed fusion-based additive manufacturing technologies; however, due to the complex nature and the number of interactions between particles, studying the powder spreading process is difficult. In order to

Part Deflection Measurements of AM-Bench IN718 3D Build Artifacts

October 6, 2023
Author(s)
Maxwell Praniewicz, Jason Fox, Jared Tarr
One of the primary barriers for adoption of additive manufacturing (AM) had been the uncertainty in the performance of AM parts due to residual stresses/strains. The rapid melting and solidification which occurs during AM processes result in high residual

Additive Manufacturing Data and Metadata Acquisition-General Practice

June 30, 2023
Author(s)
Yan Lu, Ho Yeung, Jason Fox, Felix Kim, Luke Mohr
Increasingly, a vast variety of additive manufacturing (AM) datasets are generated through AM development lifecycles. The amount, type, and speed of the collected data are unprecedented. The datasets are created and collected for material development

Bearing area curve based partitioning for the verification of theoretical supplemental geometry on additively manufactured lattice structures

April 25, 2023
Author(s)
Maxwell R. Praniewicz, Jason Fox, Lucas Fournet-Fayard, Charles Cayron, Imade Koutiri, Anne-Francoise Obaton
The geometrical qualification of additively manufactured lattice structures has largely focused on the measurement of strut diameter, form variations, and surface texture. However, the exterior surfaces of the lattice structure, defined through theoretical

WELD TRACK DISTORTION IN LASER POWDER BED FUSION OF NICKEL SUPERALLOY 625

July 11, 2022
Author(s)
Jason Fox, Christopher Evans, Aarush Sood, Romaine Isaacs, Brigid Mullany, Angela Allen, Ed Morse
Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is one of a group of manufacturing technologies capable of producing complex structures and surfaces in small batches and with reduced lead time. Materials ranging from light metals (e.g., aluminum alloys) to high temperature

Surface Feature Characteristics of Laser Powder Bed Fusion of Nickel Super Alloy 625 Bulk Regions

June 1, 2022
Author(s)
Jason Fox, Romaine Isaacs, Aarush Sood, Paul Brackman, Brigid Mullany, Edward Morse, Angela Allen, Edson Santos, Christopher Evans
Coherence scanning interferometry (CSI) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) surface inspection of additively manufactured nickel super alloy 625 reveal features over a broad range of length scales beyond those typically reported. High resolution

Surface topography process signatures in nickel superalloy 625 additive manufacturing

September 23, 2021
Author(s)
Jason Fox, Angela Allen, Brigid Mullany, Ed Morse, Romaine Isaacs, Marc Lata, Aarush Sood, Christopher Evans
Prior analyses of surface measurements performed – by several groups – on laser powder bed fused metals have tended to use ISO standard short wavelength filters and focus on weld tracks, "chevrons" (melt pool wake), and particles. This work, utilizing two

Toward specification of complex additive manufactured metal surfaces for optimum heat transfer

September 23, 2021
