ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING MACHINE CALIBRATION BASED ON A TEST-PAGE BASED OBJECT

摘要

A method of calibrating an additive manufacturing machine includes obtaining a model for the additive manufacturing machine, obtaining a baseline sensor data set for a particular additive manufacturing machine, creating a machine-specific nominal fingerprint for the particular additive manufacturing machine with controllable variation for one or more process inputs, producing on the particular additive manufacturing machine a test-page based object, obtaining a current sensor data set of the test-page based object on the particular additive manufacturing machine, estimating a scaling factor or a bias for each of the one or more process inputs from the current data set, and updating a calibration file for the particular additive machine if the estimated scaling error or bias are greater than a respective predetermined tolerance. A system for implementing the method and a non-transitory computer-readable medium are also disclosed.
