A LITERATURE REVIEW OF LASER ENGINEERED NET SHAPING IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING USING ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS

Abstract

This review explores the integration of machine learning (ML) and artificial neural networks (ANNs) in optimizing alloy production modeling and print control within Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENS), a key additive manufacturing process. It investigates theoretical foundations, methodologies, case studies, and emerging trends to enhance process efficiency, improve product quality, and accelerate production cycles. A comprehensive literature review was conducted across academic databases and industry reports using keywords such as “machine learning,” “artificial neural networks,” and “Laser Engineered Net Shaping.” Both theoretical and experimental perspectives were analyzed to provide a well-rounded discussion. Findings indicate that ML and ANN models enhance understanding of alloy production, optimizing configurations and reducing defects. Real-time ML-driven optimization enables adaptive adjustments to process parameters, ensuring improved quality and accuracy. ANNs effectively predict key alloy microstructure properties, supporting informed decision-making and process refinement. Integrating ML and ANNs into LENS facilitates adaptive manufacturing, dynamically responding to changing conditions and alloy compositions.
