AM Quality Trends Report – April 2022 Newsletter

Sigma Labs and AMFG – Working Together to Optimize and Standardize Additive Manufacturing Workflow

We were happy to announce an agreement with AMFG, a leading provider of manufacturing execution systems (MES) software for additive manufacturing (AM), to expand the footprint of both companies’ solutions and provide the marketplace with an optimized AM solution that increases quality and efficiency while decreasing the costs of serial production. The combination of the MES and in situ monitoring systems will allow AMFG and Sigma Labs users and OEM companies to:

  • Automate full production workflow, including key visibility into production monitoring, with full traceability from powder to part.
  • Move towards automated part and process qualification.
  • View data in real-time, with ability to dive deep into analytics feed.
  • Capture data to support simulation, material properties prediction and final pedigree, and key quality assurance checks to decrease post inspection needs.
  • Provide data connectivity and integrity throughout the manufacturing process agnostic of equipment environment.

Achieving Closed-Loop Additive Manufacturing Quality Control

Last month, Jacob Brunsberg from Sigma Labs and Sven Cornelissen, senior research engineer at Materialise, presented an online event, where they shared the details of a technology breakthrough that allows users to identify and correct metal build issues in real-time – leading to added process control, consistency and repeatability – key factors in scaling AM operations for serial production. Listen to the replay to learn how to achieve closed-loop control while staying within qualified metrics – in a platform that combines the Materialise Control Platform (MCP) and Sigma Labs’ PrintRite3D® monitoring and analytics technology.
