Abstract
In the field of metallic additive manufacturing, selective laser melting (SLM) has become a predominant technology due to its advantages of short production cycles, high precision, and low cost. It is frequently employed in the production of complex parts. This paper proposes the use of a scanning laser line source, in conjunction with the singular value decomposition method, to reconstruct phase space and identify surface cracks in SLM specimens. The scanning laser line source addresses the limitations of a single line source, which is often unable to accurately detect tiny cracks. By comparing experimental and simulation data, the results demonstrate that the scanning laser line source can effectively compensate for some of the detection deficiencies of a single line source.
