TY - CONF A1 - Robens-Radermacher, Annika T1 - Efficient cooling time optimization in Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing using a multi-layer reduced order model N2 - Additive manufacturing (AM) has transformed the industry by enabling the production of complex geometries and parts with customized properties. Among various AM techniques, wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) stands out due to its high deposition rate and low equipment cost. However, WAAM’s complex thermal history poses challenges for real-time simulation, essential for online process control and optimization. Consequently, experimental optimization remains the state-of-the-art approach. A critical parameter to optimize is the cooling phase duration, which prevents structural overheating, controls the molten pool size, and influences the mechanical properties of the final product. For efficient cooling time optimization, a fast-to-evaluate model of the temperature field during multi-layer deposition is necessary. This study proposes a reduced order model (ROM) using the proper generalized decomposition (PGD) method as a powerful tool to minimize computational effort. Given the moving heat source in WAAM processes, a mapping approach is employed to achieve a fully separated representation of the temperature field. Building on the authors’ previous one-layer approach, this contribution extends the model to multiple layers through enhanced mapping and compression techniques. The compression reduces the total number of PGD modes as the number of layers increases. The extended mapping allows computations with a fixed mesh over the simulation time, in contrast to standard methods such as the element birth technique. For cooling time optimization, the cooling duration of each layer is incorporated as PGD variables, enabling time-efficient computation of the temperature field for varying cooling times. The developed ROM is applied to optimize the cooling time of a multiple layer example. Therefore a 5-10 layer wall structure is investigated using the austenitic stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316 L). The resulting cooling times and the efficiency of the approach are discussed.

This study evaluates the Flash Heating (FH) method as an efficient approach for RS prediction, comparing its outcomes with multiple experimental techniques, including X-ray diffraction, neutron diffraction, and layer removal methods. These experimental assessments are conducted in different regions of the component, both before and after detachment from the baseplate. The study validates the FH method and analyzes key numerical parameters, such as meta-layer height, contact time, and time-stepping strategies. Results indicate that FH effectively predicts bulk RS distributions but shows discrepancies in surface stress estimations, likely due to unaccounted factors like surface roughness. Additionally, implementing experimentally derived material properties from as-built AM samples significantly enhances model accuracy compared to conventional material datasets. These findings underscore the potential of FH for efficient RS prediction in PBF-LB while identifying areas for further improvement. Refinements should focus on incorporating anisotropic, temperature-dependent material behavior derived from as-built AM samples and surface roughness effects. This work advances the understanding of key factors necessary for accurate and computationally efficient RS prediction, supporting the optimization of AM processes.

Density cubes are commonly used for this purpose. Density cubes manufactured with varied process parameters can exhibit distinguishable surface structures visible to the human eye. The layer-wise process enables such surface structures to be detected during manufacturing. However, industrial visual in situ monitoring systems for PBF-LB/M currently have limited resolution and are incapable of reliably capturing small differences in the surface structures. In this work, a 65 MPixel high-resolution monochrome camera was integrated into an industrial PBF-LB/M machine together with a high-intensity LED (light-emitting diode) bar. Post-exposure images were taken to analyse differences in light reflection of fused areas. It is revealed that the grey-level co-occurrence matrix can be used to quantify the visual surface structure of nickel-based superalloy Inconel®939 density cubes per layer. The properties of the grey-level co-occurrence matrix correlate to the energy input and the resulting porosity of density cubes. Low-energy samples containing lack of fusion flaws show an increased contrast in the grey-level co-occurrence matrix compared to specimens with optimal energy input. The potential of high-resolution images for quality assurance via in situ process monitoring in PBF-LB/M is further discussed.

T1 - Influence of heat input on properties and residual stresses in hybrid addi-tive manufacturing of high strength steels using MSG processes N2 - The application of steels with a higher yield strength allows reductions in wall thickness, component weight and production costs. Hybrid additive manufacturing based on Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) processes (DED-Arc) can be used to realise highly effi-cient component modifications and repairs on semi-finished products and additively manufactured structures. There are still a number of key issues preventing widespread implementation, particularly for SMEs. In addition to the manufacturing design, detailed information about assembly strategy and geometric adaptation of the component for modifications or repairs are missing. These include the welding-related stresses associ-ated with the microstructural influences caused by the additive manufacturing steps, particularly in the transition area of the substrate and filler material interface. The pre-sent research focuses the effect of welding heat control during DED-Arc process on the residual stresses, especially in the transition area. Defined specimens were welded fully automatically with a high-strength solid wire (yield strength > 790 MPa) especially adapted for DED-Arc on S690QL substrate. The working temperature and heat input were systematically varied for a statistical effect analysis on the residual stress state of the hybrid manufactured components. Regarding heat control, t8/5 cooling times within the recommended processing range (approx. 5 s to 20 s) were complied. The investiga-tion revealed a significant influence of the working temperature Ti on the compressive residual stresses in the transition area and the tensile residual stresses at the base of the substrate. High working temperatures result in lower compressive residual stresses, heat input E does not significantly affect the tensile stresses. T2 - 6.

As a quantitative physical property, the temperature can determine the actual process quality independently from the nominal process parameters. Thus, establishing a process evaluation on temperatures rather than the comparison of process conditions is expected to be more effective. However, quantitative in situ temperature measurements with classical thermographic methods are virtually impossible. The reason is that the required emissivity value changes drastically throughout the process. Additionally, large temperature ranges along with the highly dynamic nature of the PBF-LB/M process make temperature measurements difficult. Based on this challenge, this work presents a method for hyperspectral temperature determination. The spectral exitance (in W/m2⋅nm) was measured in situ at many adjacent wavelengths in the short-wave infrared (SWIR). This enabled a local temperature determination via Planck’s law in combination with a spectral emissivity function. The temperature field of the melt pool crossing the 1D measurement line was reconstructed from the information, gathered at nearly 20 kHz sampling rate. The reconstructed melt pool had a spatial resolution of 17 µm by 40 µm, and temperatures between 2700 and 1300 K were observable. Comparison of the 316L stainless steel solidification temperature and the observed solidification plateau in the gathered thermal data revealed a relative error of less than 6% in the absolute temperature measurement. These initial results of hyperspectral temperature determination in PBF-LB/M show the potential in the method. It allows for physically founded process evaluation, and the prospects for tuning and validation of numerical simulations are highly promising.

Especially the experimental validation of complex simulations lacks a suitable measurement technique for temperature distributions at high speeds and spatial resolution. The complicated process physics, specifically the rapidly changing emissivity in and around the meltpool, pose a severe challenge for usual thermographic approaches. Here, we present first results of a hyperspectral measurement approach to reconstruct temperature and emissivity maps during the PBF-LB/M process in a custom manufacturing machine. The camera setup measures the thermal radiation of the process along a line at a rate of 20 kHz, spectrally resolved between 1 µm and 1.6 µm. When the meltpool travels perpendicularly across this line, a typical meltpool can be reconstructed by pointwise fitting for temperature emissivity separation, based on typical spectral emissivities from reference measurements.

This study introduces a novel methodology that leverages the intrinsic microstructural features of additively manufactured components for their identification, authentication, and traceability. Unlike traditional tagging methods, such as embedding QR codes on the surface or within the volume of parts, this approach requires no alteration to the printing process, as it utilizes naturally occurring microstructural characteristics. The proposed workflow involves the analysis of 3D micro-computed tomography data to identify specific voids that meet predefined identification criteria. This method is demonstrated on a batch of 24 parts manufactured with identical process parameters, proving capable of achieving unambiguous identification and authentication. By establishing a tamper-proof link between the physical part and its digital counterpart, this methodology effectively bridges the physical and digital realms. This not only enhances the traceability of additively manufactured parts but also provides a robust tool for integrating digital materials, parts databases, and product passports with their physical counterparts.

The use of directed energy deposition (DED) is growing due to its ability to build larger structures outside of a contained powder bed chamber. However, the only standard exclusively for post-build heat treatment of AM IN718 is ASTM standard F3055-14a, developed for powder bed fusion (PBF). This study evaluates the applicability of this current heat treatment standard to AM IN718 specimens produced using two methods of DED: laser-blown powder (LP)-DED and arc-wire (AW)-DED. Electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to characterize the specimens in the as-built condition and after the full heat treatment (FHT) specified in F3055. No evidence of remaining Laves phase was observed in the two DED specimens after the FHT. Yield strengths for the DED specimens were 1049 MPa for FHT AW-DED and 1096 MPa for LP-DED, higher than the minimum stated for PBF-LB IN718 of 920 MPa. The size, morphology, inter-spacing, and diffraction patterns of the γ´ and γ´´ strengthening precipitates are found to be similar for both DED processes. Differences were observed in the microstructure evolution where the F3055 heat treatments resulted in partial recrystallization of the grain structure, with a higher content of annealing twins observed in the AW-DED. These microstructural differences correlate with differences in the resulting elongation to failure. Thus, it is proposed that variations in heat treatments are needed for optimizing IN718 produced by different AM processes.

Traditional repair methods are labor-intensive, costly, prone to inconsistencies, and not rapidly adaptable. This work presents an automated approach for repairing gas turbine blade tips using Wire and Arc Directed Energy Deposition (DED-Arc) in combination with a high-precision point to point registration technique of laser line triangulation (LLT) 3D scans. The proposed workflow begins with affixation of the milled down turbine blade to a work piece manipulator using a 3D printed clamping mechanism and a rough alignment of the turbine tip. Subsequently, the turbine blade’s geometry is acquired using a fully integrated 3D laser triangulation sensor, transforming, and aggregating the captured 2D line data into a 3D scan in the working user coordinate system using live feedback data from a finely calibrated industry robot. This point cloud representation of the real-world turbine blade is then used as the target during an advanced point-to-point shape registration technique transforming the digital representation of the repair process containing all relevant tool path and geometry data into the coordinate system of the real-world turbine blade. Afterwards, the turbine tip is then iteratively repaired whereby the turbine tip geometry is divided into differentiated sections, each with its own optimized process parameter set. A key innovation in this approach is the adaptability of the repair process through a closed-loop monitoring system. After each DED-Arc deposition, a 3D scan is performed to document the deposited geometry, to detect the interaction of the different process parameter sets, to activate an intervention if necessary, and calculate subsequent tool paths based on current geometry data. The results indicate that the combination of precise 3D scan registration with DED-Arc is a viable solution for the industrial-scale repair of gas turbine blades leading to significant reduction in labor, tooling, process, and time related cost.

Existing theories indicate that the formation of cracks is closely related to strain accumulation near the solidification front. In this paper, we first leverage supervised Regression networks to design CNNs that achieve real-time average strain estimation for each frame in the collected welding videos. Two different architectures are proposed and compared: the first model stacks two frames at a set interval and feeds them into the network, while the second model extracts image features individually and predicts the results by calculating the correlation between them. Each network has its own advantages in Terms of computational efficiency and accuracy. Finally, we further train a multilayer perceptron (MLP) classification model that can detect the occurrence of cracks based on the predicted strain behaviors.

T1 - Effect of heat control on mechanical properties and residual stresses at the transition zone of component and substrate in hybrid DED‑arc manufacturing N2 - In hybrid additive manufacturing, components or semi-finished products manufactured by conventional primary forming are enhanced or modified by additive manufactured structures. However, systematic investigations focusing on the critical transition area between the specific properties of the substrate (like high-strength) and the additively manufactured component, made of specific filler material, are still lacking. The focus of the present study was to determine the influence of heat control on the Δt8/5 cooling time, the distortion, the mechanical properties, and the residual stresses in the transition area of hybrid-additive components. This contributed to the knowledge regarding the safe avoidance of cold cracking, excessive distortion, a reduction in yield stress, and the implementation of hybrid DED-arc manufacturing. The heat control was varied by means of heat input and working temperature such that the Δt8/5 cooling times corresponded to the recommended processing range. The heat input has a greater influence on the cooling time in the transition area than the working temperature. Working temperature and the total energy applied per layer have a significant effect on component distortion. The lowest working temperature of 100 °C in combination with the highest total energy per layer leads to significantly greater distortion compared to manufacturing with a high working temperature of 300 °C and low total energy per layer. In addition, the longitudinal residual compressive stresses in the sensitive transition area are reduced from − 500 MPa to approx. − 200 MPa by adjusting the working temperature from 100 to 300 °C. Such complex interactions must be clarified comprehensively to provide users with easily applicable processing recommendations and standard specifications for an economical hybrid additive manufacturing of components made, for example, of high-strength steels in the transition area.

Automated in situ monitoring and fast-responsive analyses of process signatures and deposit profiles during DED-Arc are in ever demand to print dimensionally consistent parts and reduce post-deposition machining. A comprehensive experimental investigation is presented here involving real-time synchronous measurement of arc current, voltage, and the deposit profile using a novel multi-sensor monitoring framework integrated with the DED-Arc set-up. The recorded current–voltage transients are used to estimate the time-averaged arc power, and energy input in real time for an insight of the influence of wire feed rate and printing travel speed on the deposit characteristics. A unique attempt is made to represent the geometric profiles of the single-track deposits in a generalized mathematical form corresponding to a segmented ellipse, which has exhibited the minimum root-mean-square error of 0.03 mm. The dimensional inconsistency of multi-track deposits is evaluated quantitatively in terms of waviness using build profile monitoring and automated estimation, which is found to increase with an increase in step-over ratio and energy input. For the multi-track mild steel deposits, the suitable range of step-over ratio for the minimum surface waviness is observed to lie between 0.6 and 0.65. Collectively, the proposed framework of synchronized process monitoring and real-time analysis provides a pathway to achieve dimensionally consistent and defect-free parts, and highlights the potential for closed-loop control systems for a wider industrial application of DED-Arc.

Four powder batches with oxygen content levels of approximately from 140 ppm to1400 ppm were processed using PBF-LB|M. A powder collection container was fabricated to sample unmelted powder from heat-affected regions of the powder bed. Recoating and melting proceeded without issues; however, increased fume emissions were observed at higher oxidation levels, indicating intensified spatter formation. Post-process analysis revealed that finer particles exhibited greater surface oxidation due to their higher surface-to-volume ratio. Despite significant oxygen uptake, chemical analysis showed no measurable changes in key alloying elements in either the unmelted or spatter particles. Additionally, changes in particle size distribution became more pronounced at high oxidation levels. These findings provide a basis for understanding oxidation-driven degradation and optimizing powder reuse strategies to maintain material performance.

This study addresses the extraneous variance in scan vectors that arises even for identical cross sections of nominally identical components but located at different positions on the build platform. This inherent variance, common across most PBF-LB/M machines, is caused by scan vector computation relative to the machine coordinate origin and subsequent projection of the resulting pattern onto individual component cross sections. In this work, scan vectors are computed still following conventional slicing, but relative to the workpiece origin of each component, using an EOS M 300-4. This digital preprocessing approach homogenizes fabrication conditions, ensuring that anomalies, such as scan vector overlaps, occur consistently across identical components. The impact during fabrication is assessed through powder bed imaging, melt pool monitoring, and operational data from the multilaser PBF-LB/M machine. Components are manufactured from AlSi10Mg for each scan vector computation origin and subsequently qualified using x-ray computed tomography, optical coordinate measurement, and optical surface measurement. A comprehensive evaluation is conducted, comparing the results in terms of component density, geometric accuracy, and surface roughness to those obtained using conventional preprocessing. Based on these findings, practical recommendations are provided, focusing on achieved quality criteria to identify potential drawbacks, while also considering the life cycle analysis of fabrication. Finally, the study emphasizes the significance of consistent scan vector provisioning for identical components placed at different build platform positions, assuming no roll or pitch during nesting.

The necessity for the detection of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and homemade explosives (HMEs) at the point of suspicion has increased exponentially due to the simplicity with which the precursors can be obtained, and the reagents synthesised. The restricted availability of immunoanalytical instruments for the detection of homemade explosives (HMEs) offers a valuable opportunity for the development of innovative devices that can rapidly identify and recognise the target analyte with high specificity and sensitivity [2]. In this study, we present the development of an optical biosensor for highly specific and sensitive HME detection. The immunoassay system is situated within a matrix that is permeable to the target analyte and transparent to light, which enables the interrogation via fluorescence. The immunoanalytical system's readout is achieved through the utilisation of supercritical angle fluorescence (SAF), an advanced microscopy technique. To this end, we employed recent, commercially available high-resolution (less than 22 μm) liquid crystal display SLA printers to fabricate a free-form parabolic optical element with a high refractive index (RI greater than 1.5) and transmission values exceeding 90% from commercial photo-resins. The objective is to develop a new generation of sensors that can not only meet the requirements of trace detection but also be used for substance identification. The combination of immunoanalytical recognition with SAF detection offers a modular and versatile solution that is particularly well suited to the measurement of target analytes at trace levels.

Data management for experimental arc welding research faces the challenge of constantly changing experimental setups, incorporating a wide range of custom sensor integrations. Measurements include timeseries process and temperature recordings, 3D-geometry data and video recordings of the process from a sub-millisecond scale to multiple hour-long experiments. In addition, various manual pre-processing steps of the workpieces need to be considered to track the complete manufacturing process and its analysis – from raw materials to final dataset and publication. As a unified RDM system, the BAM Data Store offers the capability to incorporate all steps – albeit not without its own challenges. The talk gives an overview of the different workflows and processing steps along the welding experiments together with their integration into the BAM Data Store. Current solutions and ongoing integration work is explained and discussed. This includes the direct integration and upload of automated processing steps into the Data Store from different machines and sensors using custom Python APIs. Ultimately the complete processing chain across multiple internal steps should be represented in the Data Store.

An accurate monitoring and control of the melt pool geometric features is critical for printing zero-defect parts. In this study, the melt pool thermography is used for the real-time detection of the melt pool boundary, centreline, and transient cooling time using an efficient deep learning technique. The presented real-time process monitoring and control methodology using deep learning allows adaptive control of the DED-GMA process.
