Webinar - Adding to Additive Manufacturing with Particle Size and Shape Analysis

Many Additive Manufacturing (3D printing) techniques such as selective laser sintering (SLS) and selective laser melting (SLM) use particle powders as a raw material. The particle size and shape have a strong effect on the manufacturing result. Therefore it is important for manufacturers and suppliers to control the particle size and shape of their powders used in this process. In order to control particle size and shape these parameters must be measured. We discuss how to use the CAMSIZER technology to improve additive manufacturing results by monitoring the incoming particles. Value of Dynamic Image Analysis in 3D additive manufacturing How does Dynamic Image Analysis work? Why two cameras can control and monitor dust and oversize? Check the production of 3D printing powders Check the incoming raw material and the recycled powder for reuse

Powdered Metal

Sorting metals by Roundness (Willingness to roll)

Reports and Warnings



Optical Process Control Analysis for Size and Shape

Dispersion Modules (CAMSIZER XT)


Particle Size Range from 1 m to 3 mm

Three modes in 2 modules (dry and wet):

X-Fall: for dry and free flowing particles X-Jet: air pressure dispersion for fine and agglomerated powders X-Flow: wet module for emulsions and suspensions, with ultrasonic probe, optional for organic solvents

Modular "X-Change" Concept


Flexible configuration for a wide application range

simple safe fast



Dry Dispersion Inserts (2 Plug-In Options)

X- Fall (Gravity dispersion)

X-Jet (Air pressure dispersion)

Advantages

fast repeatable and reproducible

maintenance free and robust

precise




Dry Dispersion with X-Jet

Measurement range from 1 m to 3 mm

For fine powders and agglomerating materials

Dry Dispersion by pressurized air

Measurement principle X-Jet


Results


For agglomerating powders

- Metal powder - Coal dust - Wheat flour

Particle size

Lower Measurement Range



Reproducibility of Metal Powder Results

Customer had sent 30 different samples to Retsch Technology but some of these samples were the same (red, blue and green). We found out the groups and showed to the customer the good reproducibility of CAMSIZER XT (and proofed his sample splitting as well)

Sieving Problems (here Blinding and Overloading)

Test Sieves that comply with standards

If sieve analysis is used for quality control within the context of DIN EN ISO 9000:2000

then both the sieve shaker and the test sieves must be subjected to

test agent monitoring.

w = mesh width d = wire diameter

Tolerance for mean value (Y): The mean value of the mesh width must not differ from the nominal value w by more than the tolerance Y. w

CAMSIZER XT for 3D Printing Powders


Unique, almost 100% agreement with sieve results (particle width = xc min) Reliable detection of oversized and undersized particles down to 0.01% Fast: typically 1-3 minutes per measurement Flexible dispersion options (air pressure, liquid, free fall) Shape analysis (roundness, aspect ratio, circularity, etc.) Surface area calculation Independent measurement of particle length and width provides more details CAMSIZERs equivalent circle area (xarea) to compare with laser particle sizers Very repeatable and reproducible results, with excellent instrument-to-instrument agreement Very high resolution (excellent capability to detect multimodal distributions!) Easy to operate, results independent from operators

Applications Plastic, Ceramic & Metal Powder
