The absence of on-line monitoring and process quality assurance is one of the main obstacles for wide implementation of Selective Laser Melting technology in modern manufacturing industry.Temperature monitoring in the laser impact zone are carried out by an originally developed bicolour pyrometer and CCD camera which are integrated with the optical scanning system of the PHENIX PM-100 machine.Experiments are performed with variation of basic process parameters such as powder layer thickness (0-120 µm), hatch distance (60 µm-1000 µm), and fabrication strategy (the so-called "one-zone" and "two-zone").
