About The Process Health Module
Across the additive industry the most common modes of failure are easy to identify, if someone could watch the build for the entire duration. In Laser Power-Bed applications these defects are all visible in the powder spread. Effects such as short feeds, streaking, chatter, super elevations, etc. occur at the build plane and can be found by looking in the process window. Aside from lack of focus, and other sources of human error, in production environments it is financially irresponsible to have a human watch the entire build process for every machine.
The PrintRite3D® Process Health® Module solves this problem by having a computer watch the build and inform the operator when things are going awry. Most machines on the market ship with OEM cameras. By connecting to a visible or thermal camera, PrintRite3D can see directly into the build process.
Whether you need a camera supplied by Sigma, or have access to one on your machines, we have you covered. Through a straightforward connection and setup process you can begin streaming images back to the Process Health Module for analysis. Applying image-recognition based machine learning provides consistent judgement by comparing the build plane back to a constant and known baseline removes inconsistent conclusions provided by humans.
This is even more applicable to manufacturing environments with a multitude of machine types. Regardless of machine make/model, each individual defect type presents itself in a similar manner.
Process Health Module Features
Built upon our robust PrintRite3D monitoring and analytics technology, Process Health Module is part of an integrated framework for connecting and standardizing camera-based image, machine- log file, and melt-pool part data into a cohesive product suite.
