Title:
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTION OF IMPURITIES IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING MATERIALS
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2021169206
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a method and system for detecting impurities in an additive manufacturing material.SOLUTION: An exemplary method for detecting impurities in an additive manufacturing material includes illuminating a sample of the additive manufacturing material with light by a light source, causing a camera to acquire an image of the sample while illuminating the sample of the additive manufacturing material with light, and processing the image data to identify an amount of impurities in the sample of the additive manufacturing material. An exemplary system for detecting impurities in an additive manufacturing material includes a light source for illuminating a sample of the additive manufacturing material with light, a camera for acquiring image data of the sample while illuminating the sample of the additive manufacturing material with light, and a computing device having one or more processors configured to execute instructional instructions stored in the memory, for processing the image data to identify an amount of impurities in the sample of the additive manufacturing material.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
