Additive Manufacturing Data and Metadata Acquisition—General Practice
-
Published:2023
Abstract
This article surveys common additive manufacturing (AM) data-acquisition methods, covering preprocess materials characterization in the lab, machine calibration in the field, in-process monitoring during a build, and the postprocess part inspections and tests. The focus is to identify acquisition-related metadata for AM data sets to improve data usability and reusability. Also included in the article are exemplar metadata definitions for a data set acquired from light-scattering-based particle size analysis.
