Claim 15:
16. A processing system, comprising:
a memory comprising computer-executable instructions; and
one or more processors configured to execute the computer-executable instructions and cause the processing system to:
measure one or more characteristics of a melt pool while additively manufacturing a first part using an additive manufacturing apparatus according to a build file comprising machine code defining a plurality of process parameters;
determine a change to at least one process parameter of the plurality of process parameters, wherein the determined change is a configured to alter the one or more characteristics of the melt pool;
determine at least one modified process parameter based on the determined change;
modify the build file based on the determined change to the at least one process parameter to generate a modified build file; and
additively manufacture a second part using the additive manufacturing apparatus according to the modified build file,
wherein:
additively manufacturing the first part is performed in a closed-loop control mode, and
additively manufacturing the second part is performed in an open-loop control mode.
