Abstract

Within powder bed fusion of metals by a laser-beam (PBF-LB/M) spatter particles evolve due to the entrainment of powder particles and their ejection along the vapor plume. Motion properties of the evolving spatter particles are directly linked to the process zone topography, qualifying them as an interesting process signature for in-situ sensing. This work shows an industrially applicable sensing approach which allows the determination of three-dimensional spatter positions in real-time. A camera setup is derived reducing ambiguity within the reconstruction at high framerates. The presented parallel image processing and reconstruction algorithm allows for the determination of three-dimensional spatter coordinates in real-time.
