Abstract

In recent years, the necessity of implementing sensor-based process condition monitoring (CM) in additive manufacturing (AM) has attracted the attention of many foreign governments and academic institutions. To verify the feasibility of the condition monitoring on additive manufacturing, an experiment is carried out. The experiment focuses on the abnormal status of the 3D printer to explore the relationship between the printing signals and the printing quality. There are two methods are used to process the experimental data. One method is the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT), which is used frequently used in this report. Its processing result indicates that the signal changes in both the time domain and the frequency domain. The other method is the Mean function. By the comparison of the two methods, the mean function turns out to be better than STFT at presenting the differences in detail and proving the consistency of the signals and the 3D printer features. This experiment lays a firm foundation and points out the directions for future research, such as mathematical simulation, etc.
