Full description

Additive manufacturing (AM) is an emerging digital manufacturing technology for producing complex and freeform objects through layer-wise deposition. High-deposition-rate robotic AM (HDRRAM) processes, such as cold-spray additive manufacturing (CSAM), offer significantly higher build speeds by delivering large volumes of material per unit time. However, maintaining shape accuracy remains a critical challenge, particularly due to process instabilities in current open-loop systems. Detecting these deviations as they occur is essential to prevent error propagation, ensure part quality, and minimise post-processing requirements. This video presents a real-time monitoring system that acquires and reconstructs the growing part and directly compares it with a near-net reference model to detect shape deviations during the manufacturing process. The early identification of shape inconsistencies, followed by the segmentation and tracking of each deviation region, paves the way for timely intervention and compensation to achieve consistent part quality.
Lineage: Video was produced using data collected from live video feeds and surface 3D-reconstructed data from sensors and robotic systems via proprietary algorithms and software, thereby creating a digital twin of a manufacturing process.
