Description
Stratonics innovation is an in-situ thermal inspection system for additive manufacturing that monitors and identifies critical thermal indicators to significantly increase yield, reducing cost and schedule while correlating inspection data to post-process inspection, supporting certification and quality part production. In-situ inspection and analysis of key thermal metrics will reduce material waste and time by developing go/no-go decisions on part completion and produce thermal indicators to identify locations and types of possible defects and mapping these regions for correlation to post-process destructive and non-destruction inspection. Intelligent data extraction software archives the part production digital thread for traceable verification. This innovative technology will provide significant advantages with regard to discrete-part unit cost reduction, projected sustainment, and logistics costs through increased yield and quality.
