Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides a feature extraction system that extracts geometrical features of a part using in-process data acquired during an additive manufacturing process. The geometric features are extracted by applying a number of image processing operations to images taken of a powder bed during the additive manufacturing process. In this way, both internal and external geometries of the part can be characterized. In some embodiments, geometric feature extraction can be used in conjunction with other part characterizing operations, such as for example, thermal characterization processes.
