标题: Phase3D Introduces Purpose-Built LPBF In-Process Inspection Hardware for Scaled Production
On October 28, 2026, Nanjixiong learned that U.S. company Phase3D had released a new generation of Fringe Inspection hardware for in-process inspection of laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) metal 3D printing. It uses structured light to measure powder-bed surface height layer by layer.

The product centers on a projector customized for LPBF inspection. An industrial PC, GPU, memory, and storage are integrated inside the hardware; its aluminum housing uses passive cooling. Projection, computing, and storage are combined in one compact package. Unlike the earlier approach assembled from off-the-shelf components, the new generation is designed for volume production.

M12 connections support camera data, power, local networking, and equipment networking. Four hardware trigger channels accept 5–24 V signals; software triggering and automatic distance- or light-sensing triggers are also supported, allowing integration with different machines and inspection workflows. Founder and CEO Niall O'Dowd said the product was designed from the outset for OEM integration and scaled deployment.

Nanjixiong's observations

The move from optional LPBF inspection accessories to purpose-built production hardware suggests that metal 3D printing quality control is advancing from laboratory-validated lines toward routine volume production.
