Manufacturability Analysis of Laser Powder Bed Fusion using Machine Learning

Abstract Details

2023, Master of Computing and Information Systems, Youngstown State University, Department of Computer Science and Information Systems.
Additive Manufacturing (AM), particularly LASER Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF), has gained prominence for its flexibility and precision in handling complex metal structures. However, optimizing L-PBF for intricate designs involves analyzing over 130 process parameters, leading to prolonged duration and increased costs. This thesis proposes a novel approach by harnessing statistical and machine learning algorithms to predict manufacturability issues before the printing process. By performing a comparative analysis of the intended design with the machine produced result, the study introduces two machine learning and one artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm to forecast the printability of new designs accurately. This innovative method aims to reduce or eliminate the need for iterative printing, reducing productivity costs and optimizing the LPBF additive manufacturing process.
