Standard Guide for Additive Manufacturing of Metals — Data — File Structure for In-Process Monitoring of Powder Bed Fusion (PBF)
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 The converted file will be organized in a specific structure to reflect the relationship between the in-process monitoring data with the quality of the printing process.
5.2 This standard file structure will help ensure the data compatibility across various printing systems, analyses, and illustration software. It aims to be self-explaining and easy to use to accommodate data sharing in a large base of users.
5.3 The converted file can be used for the evaluation of printing quality and the detections of defects and anomalies.
SCOPE
1.1 This guide provides standardized procedures and requirements for converting acquired in-process monitoring data into one file representing the printing process of powder bed fusion (PBF) for quality evaluation.
1.2 Many of the operational descriptions included in this guide are intended as general overviews. They may not present the detailed information required.
1.3 This guide covers:
1.3.1 Data registration,
1.3.2 Extraction of in-process data, and
1.3.3 File conversion and visualization.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
