Metal Power Laser Forming (MPLF) is a high precision and complicated process. The quality of the formed parts is affected by many parameters and may vary significantly during the laser forming process. In order to guarantee the stabilities of the process, a state-of-the-art intelligent MPLF system was developed in this paper. The intelligent system includes CNC system, energy supply and control system, powder delivering and control system, and real-time feedback control system. The established state-of-the-art apparatus and several metal parts formed by the MPLF system are presented in this paper.
