The light received from the powder bed is detected.

The bulk powder may be deposited in a powder bed and contains at least two different substances, each in powder form.

The powder bed is disposed in the inner chamber.

A system comprises a furnace, a fluidized bed assembly and a powder bed.

In addition to the powder coating, the Powder Bed Monitoring function also records the state of the layer and identifies protruding parts in the powder bed.

In one embodiment, a uniform powder bed is lightly compressed into plugs of powder and dispensed.

Powder bed fusion—an additive manufacturing process in which thermal energy selectively fuses regions of a powder bed

5) Powder Bed Fusion, an “additive manufacturing process in which thermal energy selectively fuses regions of a powder bed”.

Powder bed fusion - thermal energy selectively fuses regions of a powder bed.

Uniformity of the powder bed is determined in accordance with the variance and the sampled volume.

Once cooled, the solidified moulded bodies can be removed from the powder bed.

Once cooled, the solidified moulded bodies can be removed from the powder bed.

Powder bed fusion is a process whereby specific areas of a powder bed are merged using a laser or electron beam.

The invention relates to a method for the powder bed-based additive production of components such as laser melting.
