The process enables the production of complex or customized parts without the need for expensive molds in conventional processes and reduces post-processing steps.

Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) is a technique in which the surface of a sample is irradiated with Laser, the energy density caused by the Laser is too high to heat the sample to form plasma, and the spectrum released by the plasma when the temperature is reduced is analyzed to determine the element content of the sample. LIBS technology is now combined with laser additive manufacturing technology to perform component detection during laser additive manufacturing. The existing component detection is mostly researched by adopting the conventional material characterization technology, but the technologies usually need random destruction sampling, and the detection period is long. The LIBS technique can avoid these disadvantages.
The internal standard method is an indirect calibration method, is a relatively accurate quantitative method in chromatographic analysis, particularly shows superiority when no standard substance is used for comparison, and is widely applied to experiments for measuring component content by laser-induced plasma spectroscopy.
