Material qualification for laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) processes are often based on results derived from additively manufactured (AM) bulk material or small density cubes, although it is well known that the part geometry has a tremendous influence on the heat flux and, therefore, on the thermal history of an AM component. This study shows experimentally the effect of simple geometrical obstructions to the heat flux on cooling behavior and solidification conditions of 316L stainless steel processed by L-PBF. Additionally, it respects two distinct inter layer times (ILT) as well as the build height of the parts. The cooling behavior of the parts is in-situ traced by infrared (IR) thermography during the built-up. The IR signals reveal significant differences in cooling conditions, which are correlated to differences in melt pool geometries. The acquired data and results can be used for validation of computational models and improvements of quality assurance.
Additive manufacturing of metals gains increasing relevance in the industrial field for part production. However, especially for safety relevant applications, a suitable quality assurance is needed. A time and cost efficient route to achieve this goal is in-situ monitoring of the build process. Here, the BAM project ProMoAM (Process monitoring in additive manufacturing) is briefly introduced and recent advances of BAM in the field of in-situ monitoring of the L-PBF and the LMD process using thermography are presented.
The experimental determination of residual stress becomes more complicated with increasing complexity of the structures investigated. Unlike the conventional and most of the additive manufacturing (AM) fabrication techniques, laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB) allows the production of complex structures without any additional manufacturing step. However, due to the extremely localized melting and solidification, internal stress-induced deformation and cracks are often observed. In the best case, significant residual stress is retained in the final structures as a footprint of the internal stress during manufacturing.
Here we report solutions to the most prevalent challenges when dealing with the diffraction-based determination of residual stress in AM structures, in particular the choice of the correct diffraction elastic constants. We show that for Nickel-based alloys, the diffraction elastic constants of AM material significantly deviate from their conventional counterparts. Furthermore, measurement strategies to overcome the hurdles appearing when applying diffraction-based techniques to complex-shaped lattice structures are presented: a) proper sample alignment within the beam, b) the proper determination of the residual stress field in a representative part of the structure (i.e., with an engineering meaning). Beyond the principal stress magnitude, the principal direcions of residual stress are discussed for different geometries and scan strategies, as they are relevent for failure criteria.
We show that the RS in the lattice struts can be considered to be uniaxial and to follow the orientation of the strut, while the RS in the lattice knots is more hydrostatic. Additionally, we show that strain measurements in at least seven independent directions are necessary for the correct estimation of the principal stress directions. The measurement directions should be chosen according to the sample geometry and to an informed choice on the possible strain field (i.e., reflecting the scan strategy).
We finally show that if the most prominent direction is not measured, the error in the calculated stress magnitude increases in such a manner that no reliable assessment of RS state can be made.
Additive manufacturing (AM, also known as 3D printing) of metals is becoming increasingly important in industrial applications. Reasons for this include the ability to realize complex component designs and the use of novel materials. This distinguishes AM from conventional manufacturing methods such as subtractive manufacturing (turning, milling, etc.). The most widely used AM process for metals is laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB/M, also known as selective laser melting SLM). Currently, it has the highest degree of industrialization and the largest number of machines in use. In PBF-LB/M, the feedstock is present as metal powder in an inert gas atmosphere inside a process chamber where a laser melts it locally. By repeatedly lowering the build platform, applying a new layer of powder, and then selectively melting it with the laser, a component is built up layer by layer. The local temperature distributions that occur during this process determine not only the properties of the finished component, but also the possible formation of defects such as pores and cracks. Due to the high relevance of the thermal history for precise geometries and defect formation, a temporally and spatially resolved measurement of quantitative (or real/actual) temperatures would be optimal. Quantitative values would ensure comparability and repeatability of the AM process which would also positively affect the quality and safety of the manufactured component. Furthermore, it would also contribute to the validation of simulations and to a deeper understanding of the manufacturing process itself.
At present, however, only qualitative monitoring of the thermal radiation is performed (e.g., by monitoring the melt pool using a photodiode), and safety-relevant components must be inspected ex situ afterwards which is time-consuming and costly. A reason for the lack of quantitative temperature data from the process are the challenging conditions of the PBF-LB/M process with high scanning speeds and a small laser spot diameter. Furthermore, the emissivity of the surface changes at high dynamics (temporally/spatially) as well as with temperature and wavelength. This specifically makes contactless temperature determination based on emitted infrared radiation challenging for PBF-LB/M. Although classical thermography offers very good qualitative insights, it is not sufficient for a reliable quantitative temperature determination without a complex temperature calibration including image segmentation and assignment of previously determined emissivities.
For this reason, this publication presents the hyperspectral thermography approach for the PBF-LB/M process: The emitted infrared radiation is measured simultaneously at many adjacent wavelengths. In this study, this is realized via a fast hyperspectral line camera that operates in the short-wave infrared range. The thermal radiation of a line on the target is spectrally dispersed and detected to measure the radiant exitance along that line. If the melt pool of the PBF-LB/M process moves through this line at a sufficient frame rate, a spatial reconstruction of an effective melt pool is possible.
One approach to determine the desired emissivities and the quantitative temperature from this hyperspectral data are temperature-emissivity separation (TES) methods. A major problem is that n spectral measurements are available, but n+1 parameters are required for each image pixel (n emissivity values + one temperature value). TES methods offer the possibility to approximate this mathematically underconstrained problem in a reliable and traceable way by analytically parameterizing the spectral emissivity with a few degrees of freedom. Using this approach, setup and method are applied to a research machine for PBF-LB/M, called SAMMIE (Sensor-based Additive Manufacturing Machine). First results under AM process conditions are shown which form the basis for the determination of quantitative temperatures in the PBFLB/M process. This marks an important contribution to improving the comparability and repeatability of production, validating simulations, and understanding the process itself. When fully developed and validated, the presented method can also provide reference measurements to evaluate and optimize other, more practical monitoring methods, such as melt pool monitoring or optical tomography. In the long run, this will help to increase confidence in the safety of AM products.
The damage mechanisms of metallic components produced by process laser powder bed fusion differ significantly from those typically observed in conventionally manufactured variants of the same alloy. This is due to the unique microstructures of additively manufactured materials. Herein, the focus is on the study of the evolution of creep damage in stainless steel 316L specimens produced by laser powder bed fusion. X-ray computed tomography is used to unravel the influence of the process-specific microstructure from the influence of the initial void distribution on creep damage mechanisms. The void distribution of two specimens tested at 600 °C and 650 °C is analyzed before a creep test, after an interruption, and after fracture. The results indicate that the formation of damage is not connected to the initial void distribution. Instead, damage accumulation at grain boundaries resulting from intergranular cracking is observed.
Diese Untersuchung beschäftigt sich mit der Charakterisierung von Kurzrisswachstum in mittels Laser-Pulverbett-Verschmelzen (LPBF - Laser Powder Bed Fusion) hergestelltem rostfreien austenitischen Stahl. Spezifischer wird die Ermittlung zyklischer R-Kurven untersucht. Diese beschreiben den Aufbau des Widerstands gegen Ermüdungsrisswachstum - d.h. des Schwellenwertes - aufgrund von Rissschließeffekten bei physikalisch kurzen Rissen. Mit Hilfe der zyklischen R-Kurven kann die Fähigkeit eines Bauteils, physikalisch kurze Risse zu arretieren, charakterisiert werden. Wir verfügen damit über eine Schnittstelle zwischen klassischer Ermüdung und Bruchmechanik. Das ist gerade auch für additiv gefertigte (AM – Additive Manufacturing) Materialien von Interesse. Diese weisen prozessintrinsische Defekte auf, die als Initiierungsstellen kurzer Ermüdungsrisse agieren. Im Rahmen der experimentellen Untersuchungen wurden zyklische R-Kurven für konventionellen und LPBF AISI-316L-Stahl ermittelt. Insbesondere wurde der Einfluss verschiedener Wärmebehandlungen (WB1: 450°C, WB2: 800°C und WB3: 900°C) auf das Wachstumsverhalten physikalisch kurzer Risse im LPBF-Material untersucht. Aufgrund hoher Eigenspannungen war die Ermittlung des Kurzrisswachstumsverhaltens bei WB1 nicht möglich. Für WB2 und WB3 ergaben sich sehr unterschiedliche zyklische R-Kurven. Untersuchungen der Eigenspannungen, der Bruchfläche (insbesondere der Rauheit) und der Mikrostruktur sollen die Ursachen für das unterschiedliche Verhalten erklären. Die Ergebnisse werden mit den Verhältnissen in konventionellem Material verglichen.
The present study deals with the experimental characterization of short crack propagation in SLM (selective-laser-melting) manufactured stainless steel. More specifically, the determination of cyclic R-curves is discussed. This describes the dependency of the crack propagation threshold on crack growth during the short crack propagation stage. For metals, the threshold, starting at a material-intrinsic value, increases until it reaches a value independent of the crack length due to crack closure phenomena which build up at that stage. The cyclic R-curve, when used in the frame of a cyclic R curve analysis, characterizes the resistance of a material to fatigue crack growth and the ability to arrest a physically short crack. Thus, it is the link between classical fatigue and fracture mechanics. In the high-cycle-fatigue range, the short crack propagation stage dominates the overall lifetime, i.e., the number of cycles until failure. Below the fatigue limit crack arrest of hitherto propagable micro-cracks will occur. The effort for the experimental characterization of the short fatigue crack propagation behavior and the cyclic R-curve is very high compared to experiments on long crack propagation. A very exact measurement of crack extension is required, since small increments need to be depicted. Pre-cracking must leave a closure free initial crack, since closure must be build up only by the cyclic R-curve. The closure-free status is achieved by compression pre-cracking. The aim of the present study is an insight into the influence of an AM process on the short crack propagation threshold. Cyclic R-curves are experimentally determined at different load-ratios for 316L austenitic steel specimens produced by SLM and conventional manufacturing. Residual stresses are measured in the crack plane and their influence on the cyclic R-curve is discussed.

For a deep process understanding of the laser powder bed fusion process (PBF-LB/M), recording of the occurring surface temperatures is of utmost interest and would help to pave the way for reliable process monitoring and quality assurance. A notable number of approaches for in-process monitoring of the PBF-LB/M process focus on the monitoring of thermal process signatures. However, due to the elaborate calibration effort and the lack of knowledge about the occurring spectral directional emissivity, only a few approaches attempt to measure real temperatures. In this study, to gain initial insights into occurring in the PBF-LB/M process, measurements on PBF-LB/M specimens and metal powder specimens were performed for higher temperatures up to T = 1290 °C by means of the emissivity measurement apparatus (EMMA) of the Center for Applied Energy Research (CAE, Wuerzburg, Germany). Also, measurements at ambient temperatures were performed with a suitable measurement setup. Two different materials—stainless steel 316L and aluminum AlSi10Mg—were examined. The investigated wavelength λ ranges from the visible range (λ-VIS = 0.40–0.75 µm) up to the infrared, λ = 20 µm. The influence of the following factors were investigated: azimuth angle φ, specimen temperature TS, surface texture as for PBF-LB/M surfaces with different scan angles α, and powder surfaces with different layer thicknesses t.
