Direct temperature and quality monitoring of Laser Powder Bed fusion

KU Leuven

Leuven, Belgium

This PhD position is hosted by the Additive Manufacturing (AM) research group, under the direct supervision of Prof. Bey Vrancken – as part of the Manufacturing and Process Systems division (MaPS) at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, KU Leuven. The KU Leuven AM group is a worldwide pioneer in AM research. At present, the AM group is continuing and extending their research activities in different areas related to laser-based AM (see also the research group website): broadening the materials palette for AM (ceramics, aluminum, bio materials, …); relating process conditions to static and dynamic mechanical properties via analysis of micro structure, texture, porosity, thermal stresses,…; machine design and process optimization (software and hardware, integrating new enabling technologies); and in-situ and post-process quality control (X-ray CT, process monitoring, closed loop control, post-build treatments).
