Zeiss and EOS, specialists in metrology and additive manufacturing respectively, have jointly developed and launched an in-process and post-print powder bed analysis solution. Using patented technology from Zeiss, the solution captures all features of the powder bed with high precision for layer-by-layer analysis and evaluation of the entire print job. This capability provides in-situ-proof of powder bed quality via images and defect statistics instead of after-build testing of parts. Zeiss says that the AM in-process offers rapid defect detection and classification with an ultra-high resolution per pixel.
