  text: <jats:p>Laser powder bed fusion is a cornerstone technology for additive manufacturing
    (AM) of metals and polymers, yet challenges in achieving consistent reproducibility
    and process optimization persist. Addressing these requires a systematic understanding
    of the interactions between feedstock, process parameters, and final part characteristics
    throughout the entire production chain. This study presents results from a comprehensive
    interlaboratory investigation conducted by 32 research institutions, evaluating
    six feedstock, including nanoparticle‐modified aluminum alloy and polyamide powders,
    under standardized protocols. Data analysis encompasses 69 powder properties,
    15 process parameters per print, and 78 part features, culminating in a dataset
    of over 1.2 million correlations. Advanced statistical methods and machine learning
    are employed to identify critical variability drivers, such as the impact of nanoparticle
    modifications on powder flowability and thermal conductivity, as well as the influence
    of process parameters on reproducibility. Newly introduced dimensionless figures
    of merit provide universal metrics to describe and predict thermal and mechanical
    interactions, simplifying process optimization and material characterization.
    The findings, supported by an open‐access dataset adhering to findable, accessible,
    interoperable, and reusable principles, advance understanding of material–process–structure–property
    relationships. They establish a benchmark for future research and lay the foundation
    for improving the reliability, quality, and sustainability of AM processes.</jats:p>

  text: "<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>\r\n               <jats:p>The round robin
    test investigated the reliability users can expect for AlSi10Mg additive manufactured
    specimens by laser powder bed fusion through examining powder quality, process
    parameter, microstructure defects, strength and fatigue. Besides for one outlier,
    expected static material properties could be found. Optical microstructure inspection
    was beneficial to determine true porosity and porosity types to explain the occurring
    scatter in properties. Fractographic analyses reveal that the fatigue crack propagation
    starts at the rough as-built surface for all specimens. Statistical analysis of
    the scatter in fatigue using statistical derived safety factors concludes that
    at a stress of 36.87 MPa the fatigue limit of 10<jats:sup>7</jats:sup> cycles
    could be reached for all specimen with a survival probability of 99.999 %.</jats:p>"
