CT For Process Development

Understand how Computed Tomography (CT) works and how to apply it to powder selection, choose the best AM technology for your application, and design and produce CT parts.

Upon course completion, learners will:

• Describe CT technology fundamentals 

• Explain common implementations of CT

• Differentiate the (6) basic process steps of CT

• Describe errors and artifacts encountered with CT

• Analyze parts per (3) primary considerations of CT: Resolution, Part Size, and Transmission

• Evaluate inspection constraints and technology trade-offs

• Describe data post-processing and available analysis tools

• Opportunities for CT inspection of AM parts (optional)

• Opportunities for CT inspection for AM powder (optional)
