  • Another insight which is relevant for the present disclosure is that there will only be two different larger clusters of temperature information in a powder bed of an additive manufacturing device, one representing printed areas and one representing the unprinted area. Based on this, it is possible to achieve a method which is agnostic to where the printed and unprinted areas are located, but still different between them from a temperature perspective.

  • One example of such a process is the evaporation of solvent in the a deposited binder If the solvent in the binder evaporates too quickly due to too much heating, the structural integrity of the green body might be compromised, e.g. lose strength and/or delaminate. On the other hand, if the temperature is too low, binder might bleed through a subsequently deposited layer and cause powder to stick to the roller, which leads to defects in the build bed surface.
  • the relationship between the temperature of printed and unprinted area will usually be constant, and thus, if the relationship is known beforehand, the method may just as well be performed by controlling the temperature based on the unprinted area, adapted based on the relationship between the two temperatures.

  • the step of analyzing 210 the temperature information comprises clustering the temperature information into two clusters, based on the temperature information.
  • the reason for doing this is that there is usually only two relevant different temperatures to consider, one representing the printed area and one representing the unprinted area.
  • clustering the temperature information into two clusters comprises clustering the temperature information into a plurality of clusters and discarding all but the two largest clusters. There may be small differences between different parts of the printed area, as well as between different parts of the unprinted area, that may result into more than two clusters, depending on the method used for clustering.
  • the first temperature is an average value of a first temperature cluster
  • the second temperature is an average value of a second temperature cluster.
  • a reason for using the average temperature rather than a highest or lowest temperature, is that the average temperature is more stable and represent a larger amount of data, and may thus be more accurate and less susceptible to noise.
  • controlling 212 the temperature comprises controlling the temperature based on the lower temperature, i.e. the first temperature, which represents the printed area.
  • obtaining 208 temperature information comprises obtaining a thermal image of the powder composition.
  • a thermal image may be obtained e.g. by using a pixel based temperature detector, such as an IR camera.
  • one pixel may be regarded as one data point for temperature. The size of each pixel will depend on the properties of the sensor, as well as the distance from which the thermal image is captured.
  • analyzing 210 the temperature information further comprises analyzing spatial information of the temperature information.
  • spatial information of the temperature information By using spatial information about the location of different temperature, a better analysis may be obtained, where outliers, noise, and similar sources of errors can be more easily detected. It should be noted that using spatial temperature information is different form using spatial information regarding the powder composition itself, even though it represents a similar set of underlying data. In the present method, there is generally no need to match the spatial powder information with the spatial temperature information.
  • the method may comprise not obtaining any spatial information about the powder itself or any other information about the physical layout in the build box. Further, in some embodiments, the method may comprise not obtaining any spatial temperature information. In some embodiments, the method comprises discarding any obtained spatial temperature information. In some embodiments, the method comprises obtaining spatial temperature information, but not using it for any subsequent steps. For example, the temperature information may be obtained by a thermal image comprising both temperature values and spatial temperature information, but only the temperature information comprising temperature values is used.
  • the method comprises only using the temperature information and no other information for performing the analyzing 210 and the subsequent controlling 212 of the temperature.
  • the method comprises only using temperature information which represents a temperature value.
  • the temperature information may be obtained from a thermal image comprising spatial information, and possibly other information, as well as information representing temperature values, but only the information representing temperature values is used for subsequent steps.
  • the temperature information used in the method is temperature information which can be expressed as a value, and does not require a vector for expressing it.
  • analyzing the thermal image comprises analyzing temperature data points in an area of interest. It may not be necessary or optimal to use the entire thermal image, and instead an area of interest is chosen. In some embodiments, such an area of interest comprises both printed and unprinted areas.
  • the heating 206 may be achieved by other means than a heat source, such as a chemical reaction between components in the powder and/or binder.
  • the heating may be controlled by controlling the amount of chemicals added for causing such a reaction.
  • the means for controlling the temperature of the additive manufacturing device may be means for controlling the amount of chemicals added.
  • the method further comprises performing steps 208, 210 and 212 prior to step 206. It should be noted that the method still comprises performing steps 208, 210 and 212 after step 206 as well. Performing steps 208, 210 and 212 both before and after step 206 may be relevant for obtaining information about how the temperature of an unprinted area is affected by the addition of binder, and based on this information, a more detailed analysis may be possible.
  • the method further comprises performing steps 202, 204, 208, 210 and 212, prior to performing step 202.
  • the method may comprise depositing a layer, or a plurality of layers, without adding binder, but still perform the temperature analysis and subsequent temperature control based on the temperature analysis.
