In accordance with some embodiments of the invention, a method of simultaneous 3D printing and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) using Computer Tomography (CT) using Linear Diode Array (LDA) is presented. An apparatus of simultaneous 3D printing and NDT using CT with LDA comprises a 3D printer, an X-ray source, X-ray LDA detector, data acquisition system, CT reconstruction software, CT visualization software, motion control system and a computer. Either platform of 3D build or X-ray source/detector can be on a rotation and translational stage. The apparatus with the method can automatically find defects, stop current 3D printer build, replace older part and start a new object build process based on real time CT data analysis.

An method of Simultaneous 3D printing and NDT with Computer Tomography using LDA, the method compromising: operating an additive manufacturing system or 3D printing system to perform a build process by building a part on a build platform, the part being built by forming a series of layers of material on the build platform, the material melting and solidifying during the build process thereby creating internal defects in the part; during the build process, using one or plurality of X-ray generators and one or plurality of LDAs to generate X-ray CT imaging data of the part; storing the X-ray CT imaging data in a data logger to provide stored imaging data in the data logger, and analyzing the stored CT imaging data to determine whether a defect has formed during the build process, the method further comprising generating a warning if the analysis of the stored imaging data concludes that a defect has formed during the build process, wherein the warning includes an indication of a position in the part. Claim: 2. Apparatus for performing the method of claim 1, the apparatus comprising: a build platform to build a part; an additive manufacturing system which can be operated to perform the build process; a X-ray fan beam CT system with X-ray generator, LDA X-ray detector, translational and rotational motion control system, image reconstruction and visualization software to generate CT image data of the part; a data logger for storing the CT image data to provide stored CT image data in the data logger, and an analysis tool configured to analyse the stored CT image data to determine whether a defect has formed during the build process, and to generate a warning if the analysis of the stored CT image data concludes that a defect has formed during the build process, wherein the warning includes an indication of a position and a size in the part. Claim: 3. The method of claim 1 wherein the indication of a position in the part indicates an X, Y and Z location of the part. Claim: 4. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein either object build platform or assembly of X-ray generator and LDA detector is on a motion control. Claim: 5. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein X-ray detector is either single line LDA or multi line LDA. Claim: 6. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein number of X-ray generator and X-ray LDA detector is with either single piece or a plurality of pieces. Claim: 7. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein there is a sub-structure to stop build process. Claim: 8. Apparatus of claim 2 there is a sub-structure to remove the old part and mount a new part. Current International Class: 22; 29; 06; 29
