Abstract

This work demonstrates in-situ monitoring of additive manufacturing through Fused Filament Fabrication with multi-electrode resistance measurements as an alternative to thermal and optical monitoring methods. Measurements are performed through the means of a resistive filament in combination with multiplexed nozzle to bed electrodes. When printing a beam, measurements show the addition of layers as well as nozzle x-position. Furthermore effects of the electrode placement, size and loss of nozzle contact can be measured. Future work will focus on measurements with a higher number of electrodes and more complex sample geometries.
