The disclosed embodiments relate to the monitoring and control of additive manufacturing. In particular, a method is shown for removing errors inherent in thermal measurement equipment so that the presence of errors in a product build operation can be identified and acted upon with greater precision. Instead of monitoring a grid of discrete locations on the build plane with a temperature sensor, the intensity, duration and in some cases position of each scan is recorded in order to characterize one or more build operations.

It has been found, that when co-absorbing substances are added to intrinsic laser-absorbing bismuthoxide, the marking performance with a Nd.YAG-laser is improved or at least kept at the same level by reducing the costs. It is suspected, that the co-absorbing additive is not simply adding a contrast to the polymer by carbonizing the surrounding polymer but helping the bismuthoxide to couple the laser radiation and to ease the color change of this additive. This so found effect helps to cheapen the replacement of antimony trioxide and therewith have a safer and more sustainable solution for the current and future technology of laser marking.

A method for manufacturing a sintered body having one or more hard constituents in a metallic binder phase, the method including the steps of forming a green body from a powder composition including at least the one or more hard constituents, the metallic binder phase, and an organic binder system, forming a pattern in a surface of the green body such as to provide a tag enabling individual identification of the green body, and sintering the green body with the tag to form a sintered body having a smaller volume than the green body. The pattern is formed such that the tag is readable after the sintering operation.

Iodonium salt initiator and processing-free thermally sensitive plate precursor containing thereof, and processing-free thermally sensitive plate and use thereof, At least one of two para positions of two benzene rings of the iodonium salt initiator is an alkene group containing a carbon or nitrogen or oxygen atom and a double bond at an end. The alkene group can increase a steric hindrance of the iodonium salt, improves compatibility of the iodonium salt, the thermosensitive resin and the crosslinkable prepolymer, reduces the surface migration of the iodonium salt in the imaging layer and improves the initiation efficiency. During the laser imaging, a double bond contained in a residual end of the iodonium salt can perform a crosslinking reaction with the thermosensitive resin and the crosslinkable prepolymer, and thus reduces damage to the imaging layer caused by small molecules. At the same time, substituents can be arranged at four meta positions of the two benzene rings to increase the steric hindrance of the iodonium salt, and therefore, the surface migration of the iodonium salt in the imaging layer is further reduced, and the initiation efficiency is improved and the performance of the processing-free thermally sensitive plate is further improved.
