摘要： An optical assembly for a system for inspecting or measuring of an object is provided that is configured to move as a unit with a system, as the system is pointed at a target, and eliminates the need for a large scanning (pointing) mirror that is moveable relative to other parts of the system. The optical assembly comprises catadioptric optics configured to fold the optical path of the pointing beam and measurement beam that are being directed through the outlet of the system, to compress the size of the optical assembly.

摘要： 3D metrology techniques are disclosed for determining a changing topography of a substrate processed in an additive manufacturing system. Techniques include fringe scanning, simultaneous fringe projections, interferometry, and x-ray imaging. The techniques can be applied to 3D printing systems to enable rapid topographical measurements of a 3D printer powder bed, or other rapidly moving, nearly continuous surface to be tested. The techniques act in parallel to the system being measured to provide information about system operation and the topography of the product being processed. A tool is provided for achieving higher precision, increasing throughput, and reducing the cost of operation through early detection and diagnosis of operating problems and printing defects. These techniques work well with any powder bed 3D printing system, providing real-time metrology of the powder bed, the most recently printed layer, or both without reducing throughput.

摘要： A system (222) for measuring the position of a work piece (200) includes a redirector assembly (244), a light source assembly (240), a detector assembly (242), and a control system (224). The redirector assembly (244) is positioned near and spaced apart from the working surface (200A). The light source assembly (240) directs a measurement beam (246A) and a reference beam (246B) at the redirector assembly (244). The detector assembly (242) detects the measurement beam (246A) reflected off of the work piece (200) and generates a measurement signal, and detects the reference beam (246B) reflected off of the redirector assembly (244) and generates a reference signal. The control system (24) uses the measurement signal and the reference signal to determine the position of the work piece (200).

摘要： An aulofocus system for measuring the position of a work piece along an axis includes a slit light source assembly, a slit detector assembly, and a control system The slit light source assembly directs a first slit of light at a first slit area of the work piece The slit detector assembly detects light reflected off of the first slit area and generates a first slit signal relating to the amount of light reflected off of the first slit area at the slit detector assembly The control system uses the first slit signal from the slit detector assembly, and first reflectance information of the first slit area to determine the position of the work piece along the axis With this design, the autofocus system can compensate for the changes in reflectivity of the work piece As a result thereof, measurements taken with the autofocus system are more accurate and the work piece can be positioned with improved accuracy

摘要： A processing machine (10) for building an object (11) from powder (12) includes a build platform (32) that supports a powder layer (14), and an energy system (22). The energy system (22) selectively heats a portion of the powder (12) to generate a sintered portion (26) in the powder layer (14); and subsequently melts the powder (12) to generate a melted portion (28) in the sintered portion (26) of the powder layer (14) to form the object (11). The sintered portion (26) is smaller than the entire powder layer (14). Thus, only a selected, sintered portion (26) of the powder layer (14) is sintered, instead of the entire powder layer (14). A containment structure (611 B) can be concurrently formed to capture unsintered powder (29).

摘要： An integrated optical assembly is provided, with enhancements that are particularly useful when the integrated optical assembly forms part of a laser radar system. The integrated optical assembly produces a reference beam that is related to the optical characteristics of a scanning reflector, or to changes in position or orientation of the scanning reflector relative to a source. Thus, if the scanning reflector orientation were to shift from its intended orientation (due e.g. to thermal expansion) or if characteristics of the scanning reflector (e.g. the index of refraction of the scanning reflector) were to change on account of temperature changes, the reference beam can be used to provide data that can be used to account for such changes. In addition, if the scanning reflector were to be positioned in an orientation other than the orientation desired, the reference beam can be used in identifying and correcting that positioning.
