- Abstract
A two-color pyrometer is aligned co-axially to the laser inside a Laser Engineered Net Shaping machine to gather thermal data during a single layer two-pass deposit. Several molten pool metrics are calculated from the pyrometer data, and anomalies in the data are used to flag potential defect locations. The depositions are scanned using x-ray Computed Tomography (XCT) with a 4.13 micron voxel, and void size and location are recorded. XCT void data is then compared to the thermal analysis to determine the efficacy of the anomaly detection technique. In this build, four voids > 40 microns in diameter were found with XCT. Three defects appeared in the interfacial region between the deposit and substrate and produced signatures that were detected by analyzing the in-situ pyrometer data.
