Additive Manufacturing Benchmark Test Series (AM-Bench) 2018 Test Descriptions

Published by National Institute of Standards and Technology | National Institute of Standards and Technology | Metadata Last Checked: August 02, 2025 | Last Modified: 2018-01-30 00:00:00
The Additive Manufacturing Benchmark Test Series (AM-Bench) is developing a continuing series of controlled benchmark tests, in conjunction with a conference series, with two initial goals: 1) to allow modelers to test their simulations against rigorous, highly controlled additive manufacturing benchmark test data, and 2) to encourage additive manufacturing practitioners to develop novel mitigation strategies for challenging build scenarios. This dataset provides the files to allow the participants in the study (modelers) to understand the experiments and measurements and the files to facilitate the model development. Types of files include .stl files, process videos, and material information.
