Powder deposition mechanism during powder spreading with different spreader geometries in powder bed fusion additive manufacturing

Lin Wang et al.

Summary: The study utilized the discrete element method to investigate the mechanisms affecting powder deposition efficiency during powder spreading in powder bed fusion additive manufacturing. It was found that factors such as powder flow, transient jamming, forces on the underlying part, and spreader shape all play a crucial role in determining the efficiency of powder deposition.

Effects of Particle Size Distribution with Efficient Packing on Powder Flowability and Selective Laser Melting Process

Zachary Young et al.

Summary: This study focuses on the effect of particle size distribution (PSD) on powder flowability and the laser melting process. It was found that PSDs near dense packing ratios significantly reduce flowability and powder beds made of powders with dense packing ratios exhibit larger build height during laser melting.

Experimental investigation on the spreadability of cohesive and frictional powder

Wenguang Nan et al.

Summary: This study experimentally investigates the effects of operation conditions and particle properties on the spreadability of metal powder in additive manufacturing. A measure of relative spreadability based on D-90 is proposed, and the concept of dynamic spreadability is introduced to consider the demand of high manufacturing rate. The results show that spreadability is influenced by particle detachment and re-filling process, and there is an optimal spreading speed.

A digital twin hierarchy for metal additive manufacturing

A. Phua et al.

Summary: Digital twins are a conceptual framework for monitoring and controlling the product life-cycle using a simulated replica of the physical system. They have gained attention as an alternative to costly physical testing, utilizing high fidelity simulations, sensor data, and intelligent control. This paper evaluates the specific features of metal additive manufacturing (AM) and reviews the current literature on modeling, sensing, control, and machine intelligence. The proposed digital twin hierarchy for AM provides a developer framework for engineering digital twins for AM and other intelligent manufacturing systems.

The effects of locations on the build tray on the quality of specimens in powder bed additive manufacturing

Snehashis Pal et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of powder spreading direction on selectively laser-melted specimens, finding that metallurgical properties varied based on position on the build tray. The distribution of powder particle sizes and packing density played a significant role in the consequences of powder layering, impacting laser penetration and fusion characteristics. Additional experiments with a Ti-6Al-4V alloy confirmed variations in sample density.

The effect of recoater geometry and speed on granular convection and size segregation in powder bed fusion

Arden Phua et al.

Summary: The research focuses on the complex interaction between metal powder particles and the recoater in powder bed fusion technologies, revealing that recoater velocity and geometry strongly influence particle circulation and size segregation. A toothed rake recoater improves particle circulation, while a solid blade recoater increases size segregation within the heap.

Effects of spreader geometry on powder spreading process in powder bed additive manufacturing

Lin Wang et al.

Summary: The powder spreading process involves using different types of spreaders to impact the density and uniformity of powder layer deposition. Blade spreaders with round and inclined surfaces create denser powder layers compared to vertical blades, but exert greater forces on the underlying part. Roller systems lead to sparse and uneven powder layers with small gaps between layers. Size segregation is less severe in blade systems compared to roller systems.
