Follow on Google News | ADAPT and Colorado School of Mines Host Distinguished Speaker in Additive Manufacturing November 8Dr. Wayne King of Lawrence Livermore National Labs to discuss simulation and modeling of metal powder bed fusion additive manufacturing process
By: ADAPT "Understanding how materials and processes interact is critical to 3D printing's role in driving innovation and advanced manufacturing," "Dr. King heads a world-leading research group for physics-based simulations and high-speed measurement of additive manufacturing processes, with the goal of developing 'feed-forward' technologies to certify 3D printed parts as they are built," said ADAPT Technical Director Aaron Stebner. "This goal is the same vision for the data-informatics- Dr. King will discuss "Simulation And Modeling Of The Metal Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing Process." Qualification of parts produced using laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing is broadly recognized as a significant challenge. Physics-based models have been identified as being foundational to qualification of AM metal parts. The presentation covers a multiscale modeling, including a model at the scale of the powder that simulates single track/single- Dr. King currently serves as Project Leader of the Accelerated Certification of Additively Manufactured Metals Project at LLNL. This project focuses on developing physics-based models relating microstructure, properties, and process to performance of materials and includes predictive models for the laser powder bed fusion process. The project also focuses on using integrated in-process sensing, monitoring, and control technologies to accelerate part qualification. About ADAPT The Alliance for the Development of Additive Processing Technologies (ADAPT) is a research and development organization dedicated to the creation of next-generation data informatics and advanced characterization technologies for additive manufacturing technologies. ADAPT uses these tools to help industry and government qualify, standardize, assess, and optimize advanced manufacturing processes and parts. Several levels of membership to the ADAPT consortium are available. Founding industry members include Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp., Faustson Tool, Lockheed Martin, Citrine Informatics. Grant funding from the Colorado Office of Economic Development & International Trade (OEDIT) was provided to Manufacturer's Edge and The National Institute of Standards and Technology's Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership.
