Sensors for AM
MONITORS THE QUALITY OF AM PROCESS AND PARTS
Whereas additive manufacturing (AM) gives industry unique design and manufacturing flexibility, the certification of the parts still presents significant challenges. This is the main bottleneck hindering the massive growth of metal AM. Our product and services contribute to solve this issue
Sensors fixed to the recoater
Process monitoring using NDT compliant sensors

Visualizing quality issues
Differences in material quality are directly detected using our electromagnetic sensors.
These differences can be caused by changes in the process parameters or by localised defects. Early warnings are generated using these data.
