NASA believes the future of metal additive manufacturing isn't just faster production it's parts that are born qualified. In a new programme with NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, Phase3D is helping validate a real-time, in-situ qualification approach that could dramatically reduce reliance on costly post-build inspection. By capturing more than 50,000 layers of calibrated inspection data on an EOS M300-4, the project aims to demonstrate how continuous measurement throughout the build can accelerate qualification for flight-critical components and support the next generation of aerospace manufacturing.

Phase3D has partnered with Excel3D Advanced Technologies to expand access to Fringe Inspection™ across India, bringing real-time, in-situ inspection to manufacturers, researchers and engineering organisations. Discover how the partnership will help accelerate qualification, strengthen quality assurance and support the adoption of metal additive manufacturing.

Phase3D has partnered with the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) to advance additive manufacturing research through metrology-grade, in-situ inspection. The installation of Fringe Inspection™ enables researchers to capture traceable, layer-by-layer measurement data throughout the LPBF process, supporting process optimisation, machine qualification, materials development and stronger correlations between build conditions and final part quality.

Phase3D's oversubscribed $2.9 million funding round marks the beginning of a new chapter as the company scales Fringe Inspection™ and advances its vision of making in-situ inspection a standard part of metal additive manufacturing.

Phase3D today announced the release of two new large-format Fringe Inspection™ Systems for metal additive manufacturing. The new systems, Large Format Fringe Inspection™ and Large Format Fringe Inspection™ Hi-Rez, extend Phase3D’s in-situ inspection technology to support the EOS M 400 series of printers and other large-format platforms such as the Nikon SLM NXG product line.
