增材制造中的原位检测技术日益成熟,推动了更高效、实用的品质评估流程。针对激光粉末床熔融(L-PBF)过程中粉床图像的图像分割问题,已有研究采用边缘检测与机器学习方法识别几何偏差。然而,现有方法仍面临工业照明条件敏感及层间像素强度模式变化带来的挑战。本文提出一种图增强型分割方法,通过图神经网络瓶颈在全局层面保留几何信息,建模空间区域间的依赖关系,嵌入于U-Net架构中。该设计显著提升了在存在空间与层间光度变异情况下的几何重建一致性与准确性。方法在L-PBF制备的晶格结构原位重建任务中优于基准技术,展现出作为工业环境中稳健原位检测与几何验证可扩展解决方案的潜力。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The technological maturity of in situ inspection and monitoring methods in additive manufacturing is steadily increasing, enabling more efficient and practical qualification procedures. In this context, image segmentation of powder bed images in Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) has been investigated by various authors, leveraging both edge detection and machine learning approaches to identify deviations from nominal geometry. Despite these developments, several challenges remain, including the sensitivity of segmentation performance to industrial illumination conditions and layer-to-layer variability in pixel intensity patterns. The study addresses these limitations by proposing a graph-augmented segmentation approach. The underlying principle consists of preserving the geometrical information at a global level rather than at pixel-wise level, modeling dependencies and relational information among spatial regions with a Graph Neural Network bottleneck embedded into a U-Net architecture. This allows enhancing the consistency and accuracy of the geometry reconstruction in the presence of spatial and layer-wise photometric variability systematically faced in real data. The method is evaluated against benchmark techniques for the in situ reconstruction of lattice structures produced by L-PBF, demonstrating its potential as a scalable solution for robust in situ inspection and geometric verification in industrial environments.
