Process strategies for selective electron beam melting (B02)

• Subject Area: Production Automation and Assembly Technology
• Term: from 2011 to 2023
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 61375930

This sub-project aims to automate the development of process strategies for selective electron beam melting. The integration of the innovative electron optics in the process cycle allows an in situ quality control and in combination with the findings from the first funding periods, the active control of the process. Finally, a self-learning system should be able to manufacture arbitrary parts of even novel alloys by a process database optimization.
