Sand-bed defect recognition for 3D sand printing based on deep residual network

Abstract

The 3D sand printing (3DSP), by binder jetting technology for rapid casting, has a pivotal role in promoting the development of the traditional casting industry as a result of producing high-quality and economical sand molds. This work presents an approach for monitoring and analyzing powder sand-bed images to serve as a realtime control system in a 3DSP machine. A deep residual network (ResNet) is used to classify the defects occurring during the powder spreading stage of the process. Firstly, a pre-trained network was applied as the initial parameter; then it was fine-tuned on the labelled defective sample dataset to accomplish the task, which defines the sand-bed defects induced in the 3DSP processing. Furthermore, the recognition and positioning of sand-bed defects were readily achieved by dividing the sand-bed images into blocks. Experiments show that the fine-tuned network has a 98.7% classification accuracy on the validation dataset of sand-bed defects and 95.4% recognition accuracy for the sandbed images.

“…The first step is to normalize the input image using the YOLO.v3 algorithm, then divide the dimensions into several grids, and then use multiple priority boxes for each grid and find multidimensional attributes for each box. During this process, the detected human frame may be incorrect [22]. The second step mainly solves the problem of inaccurate detection frames.…”

“…the possibility of making casting cores or molds using aM technology is also known [12]. the binders used in these techniques include alkyd, furan or silicate resins [13,14]. as new technologies and their potential applications develop, the materials' unique properties must be considered [15].…”
