Abstract

This paper propose a method for detecting defects in 3D printer outputs using a transmissive photo sensor. The transmissive photo sensor measures the transmittance of the material and is used to detect defects that may occur during the printing process. To this end, the transmissive photo sensor is integrated into the 3D printer platform, and an algorithm that processes the data obtained from the sensor in real time to judge the presence of defects was developed. The results of the experiment confirmed that the propoesd system can quickly detect a variety of defects that occur during the manufacturing process. Not only can these results play a crucial role in quality control and productivity enhancement of 3D printers, but they also have potential for application in the manufacturing industry. In the future, it is expected that the defect detection system based on the proposed method will improve the stability and efficiency fo the manufacturing process.

본 논문에서는 투과형 포토센서를 이용하여 3D 프린터 출력물의 탈조를 감지하는 방법을 제안하였다. 투과형 포토센서는 재료의 투과율을 측정하여 출력과정 중에 발생할 수 있는 탈조를 감지하기 위한 목적으로 사용된다. 이를 위해 투과형 포토센서를 3D 프린터의 플랫폼에 통합하고, 센서에서 얻은 데이터를 실시간으로 처리하여 탈조 여부를 판단하는 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 실험 결과, 제안한 시스템이 제조 과정 중에 발생하는 다양한 탈조를 신속하게 감지할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 3D 프린터의 품질 관리 및 생산성 향상을 위한 중요한 역할을 할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 제조업 분야에서의 적용 가능성을 가지고 있다. 향후, 제안한 방법을 기반으로 한 탈조 감지 시스템은 제조 과정의 안정성과 효율성을 향상할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
