Abstract
An additive manufacturing system includes a work region having a layer of metallic powder distributed across at least a portion of the work region. The system further includes a power source, a scanning and focusing system and a processor. The processor is configured to control the power source to emit a beam of energy at a power level and to manipulate the beam of energy across the work region in a plurality of build tracks to form a part from the fused metallic powder. The processor further determines a cooling rate at a termination of each of the plurality of build tracks and controls the power level of the power source in response to the determined cooling rate.
