Capability screen

Use machine envelope, material family, duty and validation needs to decide what is technically worth reviewing.

Quality and inspection

Documented quality for repaired, coated and built metal parts.

Exafuse plans quality around geometry, bond quality, defect risk, metallurgy, finishing and documentation so the evidence matches the part function.

Inspection equipment for additive manufacturing quality review

Validation stack

A good validation plan separates geometry, metallurgy, surface condition and documentation.

Quality is not one final inspection step. For LMD, laser cladding and SLM, the project should define which evidence actually supports the part function before production starts.

Metallographic preparation and inspection support

Quality evidence

Inspection scope and acceptance criteria belong in the technical review, not only after a problem appears.

  • Define geometry, datum strategy and machining allowance early.
  • Review bond, dilution, microstructure and defect risk as separate evidence categories.
  • Plan documentation around part function, buyer requirements and acceptance criteria.

Inspection capability

The supporting inspection building blocks are kept clear.

Not every project needs the same inspection scope. These building blocks help define the right evidence path for repair, coating or new-build work.

Microscopy

Supports visual and detailed inspection of surfaces, welds and prepared samples.

Metallographic preparation

Streuers DP-U3 supports cross-section preparation for layer and microstructure review.

Post-processing

Milling, grinding, sandblasting and heat treatment support the process chain.

Data infrastructure

Computing and storage support process data work and AI-assisted research direction.

Quality proof paths

Articles and case studies show where inspection, microstructure, coating and monitoring come together.

These cards point to pages with real process, surface, microscopy or monitoring imagery. They do not replace part release, but they help frame the technical review.
