Abstrakt: This letter reports on the integration of eight ultrasonic transducers into a build substrate for individual in-process monitoring of eight parts fabricated using powder bed fusion additive manufacturing. Ultrasound is shown to be able to sense poor fusion of parts to the substrate and also sensitivity to porosity. This technique demonstrates the utility of ultrasound as one of a few techniques able to interrogate the volume of additively manufactured parts during the process. Additionally, the ability to measure several parts during a single build can be used for efficient process parameter development studies, as the ultrasonic measurements can offer rapid information about part quality and integrity.
