Abstract: This invention relates to a method of evaluating powder for lamination shaping by stable criteria. In this method, it is evaluated whether powder for lamination shaping can be spread into a uniform powder layer in the lamination shaping, wherein the powder is evaluated using, as a flowability of the powder, an adhesive force of the powder calculated from a failure envelope obtained by a shear test. The shear test is conducted by a powder rheometer, and the adhesive force is obtained from the relationship between a normal stress and a shearing stress at the powder rheometer. If the adhesive force is 0.450 kPa or less, the powder is evaluated to be spread into a uniform powder layer in the lamination shaping. Furthermore, if at least one of that the 50% particle sin of the powder obtained by a laser diffraction method is 3 to 250 μm and that the apparent density of the powder is 3.5 g/cm3 or more is satisfied, the powder is evaluated to be spread into a uniform powder layer in the lamination shaping.

Abstract: An optical processing head that detects a trouble of an optical processing head that will be generated at the time of optical processing before the trouble occurs is disclosed. The optical processing head that performs processing by condensing, on a process surface, a ray emitted by a light source for processing includes a cylindrical housing that surrounds a ray for processing emitted by the light source for processing, a ray emitter for inspection that is incorporated in the cylindrical housing and arranged outside the path of the ray for processing, and a light receiver that is incorporated in the cylindrical housing, arranged outside the path of the ray for processing, and receives a ray for inspection emitted by the ray emitter for inspection. The contamination of the inner surface of the cylindrical housing or the concentration of a scattering object flowing into the cylindrical housing is inspected by using a signal acquired from the light receiver.

Abstract: This invention is directed to attenuating a beam output without changing the beam position and the beam diameter. A high-output optical attenuator includes a first reflector that totally reflects incident light and causes first reflected light serving as reflected light of the incident light to enter a second reflecting portion, a second reflector that reflects the first reflected light and causes second reflected light serving as reflected light of the first reflected light to enter a third reflecting portion, a third reflector that reflects the second reflected light and causes third reflected light serving as reflected light of the second reflected light to enter a fourth reflecting portion, and a fourth reflector that reflects the third reflected light as fourth reflected light having the same optical axis as the optical axis of the incident light. At least two of the second reflector, the third reflector, and the fourth reflector are half mirrors.
