Abstract
This study aims to benchmark a fibre laser powered Open Architecture Polymer Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) system, which has been developed to offer complete process control. It enables researchers to investigate the process and materials development for the Polymer laser powder bed fusion process by providing control over critical parameters during the additive manufacturing process. To verify the solution, a benchmark study was conducted to investigate the system’s capabilities. The investigation involved manufacturing a known benchmarking geometry that challenges the polymer powder additive manufacturing process. The results indicate that the Open Architecture Polymer LPBF system can reproduce the benchmarking geometry successfully. The findings of this study demonstrate the potential of the Open Architecture Polymer laser powder bed fusion system for research and development in the field of additive manufacturing.
