Benchmarking the future of metal 3d printing
AM-D-Model is an ESAFORM benchmark project aiming to create the data that will drive the
future of Laser Powder-Bed-Fusion (L-PBF) research and innovation. By connecting an
international network of collaborators AM-D-Model will create a comprehensive, open
L-PBF benchmark dataset. As part of our commitment to open science, this dataset will be
openly shared with the research community. Our goal is to create a universal benchmark
for the L-PBF community, sparking the collaboration and innovation that will build the
future of this technology.

institutions across Europe.
Backed by Research Associations
AM-D-Model is supported and funded by ESAFORM, a globally recognized association
of research leaders in additive manufacturing.
Data Driven Research
Building the Future of L-PBF
AM-D-Model aims to provide a key cornerstone for the future of L-PBF research: a
universal benchmark for process modelling.
Community Focused Data Management
We aim to provide a blueprint for future big data AM projects, working with
contributors to ensure this benchmarking dataset is managed responsibly.
Data Science, as a Core Discipline
Our team includes expert data scientists, responsible for managing data
contributions and maximizing data impact.
Open Science
FAIR, Transparent, and Open
The AM-D-Model benchmark project is designed with open science in mind,
following FAIR principles of transparency and openness.
Visibility, Accessibility and Impact
By making these results open, we believe that visibility and accessibility will
maximize their impact on the L-PBF field.
Serving the Research Community
We aim to contribute to the L-PBF research community by providing a universally
accessible benchmark similar to those driving other cutting-edge research
fields.
