Great paper just published by the wbk Institute of Production Science, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) about residual stress control in H13 steel. Glad to read that our technology has been used to assess the stress in LPBF parts. This opens the route for in situ inspection and residul stress control, an important parameter to…

Thank you to the ESA OSIP IMPROVE! evaluation team, for providing opportunities to startups and high-tech SMEs to contribute to space innovation. It was a significant milestone for the AMIQUAM team to pitch last week as we advance on our journey towards space qualification!
It is now well documented that eddy currents can significantly contribute to the QC and NDT of additively manufactured parts, either during the process or in post processing. To fully deploy its potential, the technique has to demonstrate its value for low density structures such as lattices, which are now commonly manufactured with PBF-LB.
Had a great meeting yesterday discussing the future of quality control and monitoring in metal additive manufacturing with our colleagues from Fieldmade AS, armasuisse Wissenschaft und Technologie, and HES-SO Valais-Wallis. The AMiquam team presented a new design of the in situ NDT/monitoring system installed in a Nikon SLM Solutions machine. Based on this design, the…

Glad to participate again to these working groups creating the future standards of our industry.
This paper describes and analyses the impact of the temperature on the insitu eddy current measurements during PBF-LB manufacturing. The research has been conducted by AMiquam, ETHZ, and inspire in a partnership supported by Innosuisse. In a nutshell: yes, as expected, temperature affects the eddy current response because of the change in the electrical conductivity…
