Metal additive manufacturing (AM) technologies are now frequently used in the aerospace, automotive, medical, and energy sectors for fabricating end-use components. The digital nature of the supply chain involved for metal AM production becomes increasingly susceptible to numerous types of cyber- and cyber-physical threats. There is a need for developing security and traceability markers embedded in products, as well as low-cost non-destructive testing (NDT) methods such as ultrasonic testing (UT) for detection of such security markers benchmarked against computed tomography (CT) characterization data. The collaborative project between FUJIFILM VisualSonics and the Multi-Scale Additive Manufacturing Laboratory will investigate the design tradeoffs for embedding such security features to ensure manufacturability via laser powder bed fusion metal AM, material performance, as well as meet UT detection limits based on the newest generation of phased array ultrasonic probes. The outcomes of this program have the potential of multidisciplinary academic discovery and opening a new market sector for VisualSonics.

金属增材制造 (AM) 技术现在经常用于航空航天、汽车、医疗和能源领域来制造最终用途部件。金属增材制造生产涉及的供应链的数字化性质越来越容易受到多种类型的网络和网络物理威胁的影响。需要开发嵌入产品中的安全和可追溯性标记，以及低成本的无损检测 (NDT) 方法，例如超声波测试 (UT)，用于根据计算机断层扫描 (CT) 表征数据检测此类安全标记。 FUJIFILM VisualSonics 和多尺度增材制造实验室之间的合作项目将研究嵌入此类安全功能的设计权衡，以确保通过激光粉末床熔融金属增材制造的可制造性、材料性能，并满足基于最新一代的 UT 检测限制相控阵超声波探头。该计划的成果具有跨学科学术发现的潜力，并为 VisualSonics 开辟了一个新的市场领域。
