The robot-assisted automated serial-sectioning and imaging (RASI) platform, developed at BAM, provides automated 3D metallographic reconstructions, enabling detailed microstructural analysis of technical materials. This article showcases RASI’s capabilities through several case studies, including characterization of lamellar graphite in gray cast iron, porosity in sintered steel, melt pool morphology in additively manufactured 316L stainless steel, defects in metal-ceramic packages, and oxidation behavior in an Fe-12Cr-2Co alloy. By automating sample handling, mechanical serial-sectioning, etching, and optical imaging, RASI captures complex 3D microstructures with high precision and at high speed. This approach reveals microstructural features missed by 2D analysis, even using stereological assumptions. Specifically, statistically rare and large microstructural features, such as secondary phases or interconnected pores, become apparent, which 2D methods cannot reveal. The generated volumetric data can furthermore serve as quantitative reference datasets (i.e., the ‘ground truth’) essential for validating other 3D characterization techniques and computational models, helping to bridge the gap between predictive simulations and real-world material behavior. RASI’s modular design makes it a flexible tool that provides realistic 3D insights into materials, which can be used for advanced materials research, process optimization, and quality control.

Porosity plays a major role in powder-metallurgical materials since it greatly impacts the mechanical properties of these materials and therefore represents a key parameter in their characterization. Based on the robot-assisted automated serial sectioning and imaging (RASI) system of the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM, Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und Prüfung) in Berlin, the technique of metallographic serial sectioning will be used to image the microstructure and reconstruct a digital 3D twin from the stack of images obtained. Compared with an individual 2D microsection, the quantitative microstructural analysis of this 3D twin will enable more accurate conclusions on the shape, size and distribution of pores. This paper will detail the key steps in 3D microstructural analysis, including the metallographic preparation routine, the imaging technique, image alignment as well as the segmentation of pores. After the methodology has been described, the results of the quantitative microstructural analysis will be presented and the validity of quantitative parameters of 3D and 2D images will be compared and discussed. The analysis of more than 10,000 pores revealed a correlation between pore shape and pore size. It was also found that a 2D representation of the material surface is insufficient for a precise quantitative characterization of porosity. N2 - In der 3D-Gefügeanalyse eines digitalen Zwillings von Poren in einem Sinterstahl des Typs Astaloy CrA werden sowohl die Porenform als auch die durchschnittliche Porengröße und -verteilung analysiert. Die Porosität spielt in pulvermetallurgischen Werkstoffen eine große Rolle, da sie erheblich die mechanischen Eigenschaften beeinflusst und daher bei der Charakterisierung dieser Werkstoffe ein wichtiger Parameter ist. Basierend auf der Verwendung des Robot-Assisted Automated Serial-Sectioning and Imaging (RASI)-Systems der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und Prüfung (BAM) in Berlin, wird das metallographische Serienschnittverfahren genutzt, um das Gefüge aufzunehmen und aus dem Bildstapel einen digitalen 3D-Zwilling zu rekonstruieren. Verglichen zu einem 2D-Einzelschliff ermöglicht die quantitative Gefügeanalyse dieses 3D-Zwillings präzisere Aussagen zu Porenform, -größe und -verteilung. Diese Arbeit beschreibt die wesentlichen Schritte, die für eine 3D-Gefügeanalyse nötig sind, darunter die metallografische Präparationsroutine, das Bildgebungs-Verfahren, das Alignment der Bilder sowie die Segmentierung der Poren. Im Anschluss an die methodische Darstellung werden die Ergebnisse der quantitativen Gefügeanalyse präsentiert und ein Vergleich zwischen der Aussagekraft der quantitativen Parameter von 3D- und 2D-Abbildungen diskutiert. Bei der Analyse von über 10.000 Poren konnte eine Korrelation zwischen der Form und der Porengröße aufgezeigt werden. Weiterhin konnte aufgezeigt werden, dass eine 2D-Abbildung der Werkstoffoberfläche nicht ausreichend für eine eindeutige quantitative Beschreibung der Porosität ist.

Es werden die Form anhand des Formfaktors und des Seitenverhältnisses sowie die durchschnittliche Teilchengröße und -verteilung untersucht. Die Form der Grafite in Gusseisenwerkstoffen ist mitentscheidend für die mechanischen Eigenschaften dieser Legierungen und ist bei der Charakterisierung des Werkstoffs unumgänglich. Mittels Metallografischen Serienschnittverfahrens wird von dem Schicht für Schicht abgetragenen und lichtmikroskopisch schichtweise dargestellten Werkstoff ein digitaler Zwilling erstellt. Von diesem dreidimensionalen Zwilling lassen sich beliebige Ebenen digital projizieren und analysieren. Eine konventionelle quantitative 3D-Analyse untersucht die Voxelmenge und -zusammensetzung eines Körpers im 3D-Raum. Die hier vorgestellte Analyse wendet stereologische 2D-Analyseverfahren auf drei Raumebenen des Werkstoffs an. Dabei sind zwei der Ebenen digitale Projektionen des Zwillings. Die zwei rekonstruierten Ebenen des Werkstoffs sind so gewählt, dass die Richtungsvektoren aller drei Ebenen einen 90°-Winkel zueinander bilden. Diese Methodik wird eingehend beschrieben sowie Herausforderungen und Möglichkeiten des hier vorgestellten Serienschnittverfahrens diskutiert. N2 - The 3D microstructure analysis presented in this study focuses on the nodular graphite of an EN-GJS grade cast iron. The shape is analyzed based on shape factor and aspect ratio as well as average particle size and distribution. The shape of graphites in cast iron materials is critical to the mechanical properties of these alloys and is essential for the characterization of the material. Metallographic serial sectioning creates a digital twin of the material, which is removed layer by layer and visualized layer by layer under an optical microscope. From this three-dimensional twin, any number of planes can be digitally projected and analyzed. Conventional quantitative 3D analysis examines the voxel count and composition of a body in 3D space. The analysis presented here applies stereological 2D analysis methods to three spatial planes of the material. Two of the planes are digital projections of the twin. The two reconstructed planes of the material are chosen so that the direction vectors of all three planes form an angle of 90° to each other. The methodology is described in detail and the challenges and opportunities of the serial section method presented here are discussed.

In particular, several orientations and frequencies have been investigated, thus allowing the assessment of the influence of these parameters on the crack growth rate. In addition, oxidation experiments have been carried out to characterize the kinetics of the outer oxide scale growth at the same temperature. On the other side, crack growth has been simulated with the Finite Element program ABAQUS in real test conditions by the node release technique. The nodes are released according to the measured crack growth rate. The simulation results are compared with the test results on the basis of the computed Crack Tip Opening Displacement (CTOD). For this purpose, the crack is propagated until a stabilized value of the CTOD is obtained. This is usually the case when the crack has crossed the initial plastic zone. The procedure provides an evaluation of the effects of cycle frequency, crystal orientation, plasticity and oxide induced crack closure.
