Monitoring Of Hybrid Manufacturing Using Acoustic Emission Sensor, Haythem Gaja Jan 2018

Monitoring Of Hybrid Manufacturing Using Acoustic Emission Sensor, Haythem Gaja

Doctoral Dissertations

"The approach of hybrid manufacturing addressed in this research uses two manufacturing processes, one process builds a metal part using laser metal deposition, and the other process finishes the part using a milling machining. The ability to produce complete functioning parts in a short time with minimal cost and energy consumption has made hybrid manufacturing popular in many industries for parts repair and rapid prototyping. Monitoring of hybrid manufacturing processes has become popular because it increases the quality and accuracy of the parts produced and reduces both costs and production time. The goal of this work is to monitor the …

Laser Metal Deposition LMD is a hybrid manufacturing process consist of a laser deposition system combined with a 5-axis CNC milling system. During laser deposition many parameters and their interaction affect the dimensional accuracy of the part produced, powder flow rate, laser power and travel speed are some of these parameters. Sensing the acoustic emission during milling marching gives feedback information regarding depth of metal being cut subsequent part dimensions, if an error in dimensions is found certain actions, such as remaching, close loop control, or laser remelting can be carried out to correct it. Thus a reliable hybrid manufacturing …
