thermal control system
5D Vision thermal cameras measure temperature conditions during centralized polymer deposition printing. A 5D database (x, y, z, T°C, t) is generated in real time.
This avoids costly non-destructive testing once printing is complete, and reduces production costs (reduced and optimized human intervention, less material wastage, etc.).
ADVANTAGES
In Situ Control
At the heart of the process, thermal measurements control 3D printing in real time.
Help with settings
Help to define the optimum printing parameters for a given material.
fault detection
Thanks to AI, defects are automatically identified and localized.
Real-time optimization
Real-time transmission of any corrective action to be taken by an external heating system.
