The melting state of a single track is closely related to defects such as porosity, lack of fusion, and balling, which have a significant impact on the mechanical properties of an LPBF-created part. To ensure the reliability of part quality and repeatability, process monitoring and feedback control are emerging to improve the melting states, which is becoming a hot topic in both the industrial and academic communities. In this research, a simple and low-cost off-axial photodiode signal monitoring system was established to monitor the melting pools of single tracks. Nine groups of single-track experiments with different process parameter combinations were carried out four times and then thirty-six LPBF tracks were obtained. The melting states were classified into three classes according to the morphologies of the tracks. A convolutional neural network (CNN) model was developed to extract the characteristics and identify the melting states. The raw one-dimensional photodiode signal data were converted into two-dimensional grayscale images. The average identification accuracy reached 95.81% and the computation time was 15 ms for each sample, which was promising for engineering applications. Compared with some classic deep learning models, the proposed CNN could distinguish the melting states with higher classification accuracy and efficiency. This work contributes to real-time multiple-sensor monitoring and feedback control.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23249793","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,13]],"date-time":"2023-12-13T17:00:37Z","timestamp":1702486837000},"page":"9793","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Monitoring of Single-Track Melting States Based on Photodiode Signal during Laser Powder Bed Fusion"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Longchao","family":"Cao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechanical Engineering & Automation, Wuhan Textile University, Wuhan 430200, China"},{"name":"Hubei Key Laboratory of Digital Textile Equipment, Wuhan Textile University, Wuhan 430200, China"}]},{"given":"Wenxing","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechanical Engineering & Automation, Wuhan Textile University, Wuhan 430200, China"},{"name":"Hubei Key Laboratory of Digital Textile Equipment, Wuhan Textile University, Wuhan 430200, China"}]},{"given":"Taotao","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"China Ship Development and Design Center, Wuhan 430200, China"}]},{"given":"Lianqing","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechanical Engineering & Automation, Wuhan Textile University, Wuhan 430200, China"},{"name":"Hubei Key Laboratory of Digital Textile Equipment, Wuhan Textile University, Wuhan 430200, China"}]},{"given":"Xufeng","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Aerospace Engineering, Huazhong University of Science & Technology, Wuhan 430074, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Bacciaglia, A., Ceruti, A., and Liverani, A.
