The appropriate rheological properties of the colloids have been obtained through the addition of poly-ethylene oxide-co-polypropylene-co-polyethylene oxide copolymer (Pluronic P123) and poly-acrylic acid to the suspension of the oxide in water.

However, the FFF process has several disadvantages like inconsistent part quality and print repeatability. The occurrence of manufacturing-induced defects often leads to these shortcomings. This study aims to develop and implement an on-site monitoring system, which consists of a camera attached to the print head and the laptop that processes the video feed, for the extrusion-based 3D printers incorporating computer vision and object detection models to detect defects and make corrections in real-time. Image data from two classes of defects were collected to train the model. Various YOLO architectures were evaluated to study the ability to detect and classify printing anomalies such as under-extrusion and over-extrusion. Four of the trained models, YOLOv3 and YOLOv4 with \"Tiny\" variation, achieved a mean average precision score of >80% using the AP50 metric. Subsequently, two of the models (YOLOv3-Tiny 100 and 300 epochs) were optimized using Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) model conversion and ONNX Runtime to improve the inference speed. A classification accuracy rate of 89.8% and an inference speed of 70 frames per second were obtained. Before implementing the on-site monitoring system, a correction algorithm was developed to perform simple corrective actions based on defect classification. The G-codes of the corrective actions were sent to the printers during the printing process. This implementation successfully demonstrated real-time monitoring and autonomous correction during the FFF 3D printing process.

As the technology becomes more mainstream, there is a growing need to establish nondestructive inspection technologies that can assess and quantify build quality with high confidence. This article presents a complete, three-dimensional (3D) solution for automated defect recognition in AM parts using X-ray computed tomography (CT) scans. The algorithm uses a machine perception framework to automatically separate visually salient regions, that is, anomalous voxels, from the CT background. Compared with supervised approaches, the proposed concept relies solely on visual cues in 3D similar to those used by human operators in two-dimensional (2D) assuming no <i>a priori</i> information about defect appearance, size, and/or shape. To ingest any arbitrary part geometry, a binary mask is generated using statistical measures that separate lighter, material voxels from darker, background voxels. Therefore, no additional part or scan information, such as CAD files, STL models, or laser scan vector data, is needed. Visual saliency is established using multiscale, symmetric, and separable 3D convolution kernels. Separability of the convolution kernels is paramount when processing CT scans with potentially billions of voxels because it allows for parallel processing and thus faster execution of the convolution operation in single dimensions. Based on the CT scan resolution, kernel sizes may be adjusted to identify defects of different sizes. All adjacent anomalous voxels are subsequently merged to form defect clusters, which in turn reveals additional information regarding defect size, morphology, and orientation to the user, information that may be linked to mechanical properties, such as fatigue response. The algorithm was implemented in MATLAB™ using hardware acceleration, that is, graphics processing unit support, and tested on CT scans of AM components available at the Center for Innovative Materials Processing through Direct Digital Deposition (CIMP-3D) at Penn State's Applied Research Laboratory. Initial results show adequate processing times of just a few minutes and very low false-positive rates, especially when addressing highly salient and larger defects. All developed analytic tools can be simplified to accommodate 2D images.</p>","PeriodicalId":54341,"journal":{"name":"3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing","volume":"10 3","pages":"406-419"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10280214/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9710256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Achieving a consistent flow of the extruded material is key to ensure quality of the final part. Extrudate flow depends on many factors; among these, the rate at which the filament is fed into the extruder. In a conventional FFF machine, filament transport is achieved through the use of a drive gear. However, slippage between the gear and the filament may occur, leading to reduced transport and the consequent local decrease of extrudate flow rate, which in turn leads to a series of imperfections in the fabricated part due to underextrusion, including reduced density. In this work, we propose a closed-loop control system to ensure the correct filament transport to the extruder. The system works through the comparison between the nominal transport of the filament and the actual filament transport measured using an encoder. The measured value is used to correct the filament feed rate in real time, ensuring a material flow close to the nominal one, regardless of the other process parameters. In this work, an instrumented FFF machine prototype was used to investigate the performance of the approach. For validation, parts were realized using different process parameters, while enabling and disabling the closed-loop control system. Results showed that the relative filament transport error decreased from up to 9% to below 0.25% and a density increase up to ∼10% regardless of the process parameters, as well as the reduction of interlayer and intralayer voids, as highlighted through cross-sectional imaging of realized samples.

One novel solution is a two-step, self-terminating etching process (STEP), which achieves both support removal and surface smoothing. While the STEP has been demonstrated for laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) 316L stainless steel, this work evaluates the impact of pre-STEP heat treatments and resulting changes in dislocation density and microstructure on the resulting surface roughness and amount of material removed. Two pre-STEP heat treatments were evaluated: stress relief at 470°C for 5 h and recrystallization-solution annealing at 1060°C for 1 h. Additionally, one set of specimens was processed without the pre-STEP heat treatment (as-printed condition). Dislocation density and phase composition were quantified using X-ray diffraction along with standard, metallurgical stain-etching techniques. This work, for the first time, highlights the mechanisms of sensitization of AM L-PBF 316L stainless steel and provides fundamental insights into selective etching of these materials. Results showed that the sensitization depth decreased with increasing dislocation density. For samples etched at a STEP bias of 540 mV_SHE, material removal terminated at grain boundaries; therefore, the fine-grained stress-relieved specimen had the lowest post-STEP surface roughness.

Three input parameters, such as peak current (A), pulse on time (s), and gap voltage (v), are selected for the EDM process. The performance measures, which are determined during the EDM process, are material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate, surface roughness (SR), microstructural analysis of machined surface, and residual stress. At a higher pulse on time, more material was removed from the workpiece surface and thus MRR is enhanced. Likewise, at a higher peak current, the SR is amplified and thus wider craters are formed on the machined surface.
