Description
The Production Systems Group (PSG) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) conducts research in metal-based additive manufacturing (AM) with the goal of improving process monitoring, control, and qualification of AM processes. A key platform supporting this work is the Additive Manufacturing Metrology Testbed (AMMT), a laser powder bed fusion research system developed at NIST to study the relationship between processing parameters, melt pool dynamics, and resulting material properties. The AMMT platform enables precise synchronization between the laser position and in-situ monitoring devices, including high-speed cameras used to capture melt pool dynamics during the laser-material interaction. These measurements provide critical information for understanding the AM process and improving process stability and part quality....
