--- res: bibo_abstract: - The temperature distribution and history within laser sintered part cakes is an important aspect regarding the process quality and reproducibility of the polymer laser sintering process. Especially the temperature history during the build and cooling phase is decisive for powder ageing effects and the development of part quality characteristics. In this work, a measurement system for three-dimensional in-process temperature measurements is set up and the influence of different parameters on the inner part cake temperature distribution and history is analyzed. Important factors are not only geometrical build job parameters like the part packing density and build height, but also process parameters like the layer thickness and bulk powder density. Individual in-process temperature profiles at different positions within a part cake are finally correlated with powder ageing effects. The results of this work help to understand the temperature history dependency of powder and part properties and can therefore be used to develop optimized process controls.@eng bibo_authorlist: - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Stefan foaf_name: Josupeit, Stefan foaf_surname: Josupeit - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Hans-Joachim foaf_name: Schmid, Hans-Joachim foaf_surname: Schmid foaf_workInfoHomepage: http://www.librecat.org/personId=464 bibo_doi: http://utw10945.utweb.utexas.edu/sites/default/files/2015/2015-15-Josupeit.pdf bibo_volume: 26 dct_date: 2015^xs_gYear dct_language: eng dct_title: Temperature History within Laser Sintered Part Cakes and its Influence on Process Quality@ ...
