ABSTRACT

The present invention relates to a manufacturing assistance system for an
additive manufacturing system, an additive manufacturing system comprising
such manufacturing assistance system, a method for operating such
manufacturing assistance system and a computer program element for such
manufacturing assistance system. The manufacturing assistance system comprises
a process sensor unit, an imaging sensor unit and a control unit. The process
sensor unit is arrangeable at the additive manufacturing system and configured
to generate process data during manufacturing an object by the additive
manufacturing system. The imaging sensor unit is arrangeable at the additive
manufacturing system and configured to generate image data of the object
during manufacturing. The control unit is configured to collect the process
data generated by the process sensor unit and the image data generated by the
imaging sensor unit and to correlate the process data and the image data to
determine a current state of the object.
