First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for quality monitoring of additive manufacturing, comprising:
- an acoustic emission (AE) sensor configured to be attached to an additive manufacturing substrate and to output a sensor signal indicative of acoustic vibrations received at the AE sensor; and
an AE module configured to;
receive the sensor signal from the AE sensor; and
process the sensor signal to determine at least one characteristic of an additive manufacturing process and/or an additively manufactured article.

Abstract
A system for quality monitoring of additive manufacturing includes an acoustic emission (AE) sensor configured to be attached to an additive manufacturing substrate and to output a sensor signal indicative of acoustic vibrations received at the AE sensor and an AE module. The AE module is configured to receive the sensor signal from the AE sensor and process the sensor signal to determine at least one characteristic of an additive manufacturing process and/or an additively manufactured article.
