Abstract: An additively manufactured component and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. The additively manufactured component includes a cross sectional layer having a surface surrounding the cross sectional layer. The cross sectional layer is formed by moving a focal point of an energy source over a bed of additive material. A surface irregularity is formed on the surface by manipulating the energy level of the energy source. The surface may include a datum feature positioned at a predetermined location relative to the surface irregularity and the surface irregularity may be greater than a surface roughness of the surface but less than one millimeter.

Abstract: Devices, systems, methods, and kits of parts for monitoring operation of an electron beam additive manufacturing systems are disclosed. A monitoring system includes one or more measuring devices positioned on the at least one wall in the interior of a build chamber of the additive manufacturing system. Each one of the one or more measuring devices includes a piezoelectric crystal. The monitoring system further includes an analysis component communicatively coupled to the one or more measuring devices. The analysis component is programmed to receive information pertaining to a frequency of oscillation of the piezoelectric crystal. A collection of material on the one or more measuring devices during formation of an article within the build chamber causes a change to the frequency of oscillation of the piezoelectric crystal that is detectable by the analysis component and usable to determine a potential build anomaly of the article.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to methods and apparatuses for chemical vapor deposition (CVD) during additive manufacturing (AM) processes. Such methods and apparatuses can be used to embed chemical signatures into manufactured objects, and such embedded chemical signatures may find use in anti-counterfeiting operations and in manufacture of objects with multiple materials.

Abstract: A method of calibrating a beam scan field of an additive manufacturing machine in which a radiant energy beam is used to selectively melt material to form a workpiece, the method including: using a radiant energy source, directing a beam using a steering mechanism so as to create a calibration build job on a substrate, the calibration build job including at least one measurement artifact created by the beam; using a calibrated camera, collecting an image of the calibration build job; generating a set of measurements of the calibration build job from the image; comparing the measurements to a standard; in response to the measurements deviating from the standard by more than a predetermined acceptable tolerance, adjusting the steering mechanism; wherein the steps of directing, collecting, generating, comparing, and adjusting are carried out in response to automated commands from an electronic controller.

Abstract: Systems and methods for optical based monitoring of additive manufacturing processes are provided. In one example a method includes obtaining optical data representing a layer of a structure being manufactured using an additive manufacturing process, comparing the optical data with a standard optical representation associated with the structure, determining one or more nonconformance conditions between the optical data representing the layer and the standard optical representation, and implementing a control action based at least in part on the one or more nonconformance conditions.

Abstract: A ceramic resin is provided, along with its methods of formation and use. The ceramic resin may include a crosslinkable precursor, a photoinitiator, ceramic particles, and pore forming particles. The ceramic resin may be utilized to form a ceramic casting element, such as via a method that includes forming a layer of the ceramic resin; applying light onto the ceramic resin such that the photoinitiator initiates polymerization of the crosslinkable precursor to form a crosslinked polymeric matrix setting the ceramic particles and the pore forming particles; and thereafter, heating the crosslinked polymeric matrix to a first temperature to burn out the pore forming particles.
