  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ESTIMATING POWDER DOSING IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING PROCESSES
    Publication number: 20230256511
    Abstract: A method for forming a component includes estimating a dosing plan for powder of a powder bed fusion (PBF) system needed to form the component. The dosing plan includes powder dosing requirements needed per layer to form the component. The method includes providing the dosing plan to a controller of the PBF system. Further, the method includes regulating the powder being supplied to a build chamber of the PBF system from a supply chamber of the PBF system based on the dosing plan. In addition, the method includes additively manufacturing the component via the PBF system using the powder.
