Abstract Scope |
Additive manufacturing (AM) is a transformative manufacturing technology that provides new capabilities across a wide range of material systems and applications. Metal AM enables customized production of three-dimensional parts with geometries that can be too costly, difficult, or in some cases, impossible to produce using traditional manufacturing processes. In many cases, however, difficulties persist regarding throughput, reproducibility, reliability, and properties of the printed parts. Critical gaps include a lack of alloy-specific and temperature-dependent material property data, model validation data for multi-scale and multi-physics AM simulations, and a rigorous calibration chain for in situ process monitoring and control. NIST is deeply involved in all these measurement issues and I will describe our current and planned work in these crucial areas and how this work fits into the landscape of metal AM qualification and certification. |
