Inova-Mk1-ASTM

ASTM mechanical-test specimens (D638 tensile, D790 flex) printed on the Inova Mk1 SLS printer and pulled on an MTS / TestWorks Instron. Each row is a single specimen with full geometry, scalar results, stress–strain + raw DAQ curves, and — for SLS rows — FK references and an embedded snapshot of the upstream print profile from ppak10/Inova-Mk1-Database.

Rows are self-contained for ML use: the full PrintProfile JSON is inlined, so features (material/energy profile) and target (mechanical response) live on the same row.

tensile = load_dataset("ppak10/Inova-Mk1-ASTM", "D638", split="train")

Composite stress–strain

Every specimen overlaid on one plot per standard. Colors are batch labels (A–I, J, J_MB); solid gray lines are FormLabs PA12GF benchtop controls. PLA/PETG filament controls (D638 only) print at much higher stress and strain than either PA12 material, so they're broken out into their own figure to keep the main composite readable.

Batch averages (SLS Nylon 12 GF only)

One mean stress-strain curve per SLS batch, ± 1 sample standard deviation across specimens (error bars), for our own Inova Mk1 SLS Nylon 12 GF prints — PLA/PETG/FormLabs benchtop controls are excluded (they have no batch_label). Each specimen's curve is linearly interpolated onto a common strain grid bounded by the shortest specimen's max strain in that batch, so every point in the mean is backed by the same specimen count. See scripts/plots/02_batch_averages.py for the full averaging method (including why one D790 specimen — a degenerate 3-point curve — is dropped from its batch's average).

Configs

Config	Description	Files
D638 (default)	Tensile specimens (ASTM D638 Type I). 54 SLS (batches A–I, J, J_MB) + 3 PLA + 3 PETG + 5 FormLabs PA12GF = 65 rows. Batches F–I, J, J_MB (27 rows) have null FKs — their print jobs aren't in Database yet.	data/D638/*.jsonl (one row per file)
D790	Three-point flex specimens (ASTM D790 Procedure A). 54 SLS rows (batches C–I, J, J_MB) + 5 FormLabs PA12GF = 59 rows. Batches E–I, J, J_MB (37 rows) have null FKs — their print jobs aren't in Database yet.	data/D790/*.jsonl (one row per file)

One JSONL file per specimen — SLS rows are named after their sample_id (e.g. data/D638/A1.jsonl, data/D790/E10.jsonl); non-SLS controls use {material}_TSR{n}.jsonl (e.g. data/D638/PLA_TSR6.jsonl, data/D790/PA12GF_FL_TSR1.jsonl). Both configs share the same row schema and are produced by the per-session scripts under scripts/specimens/.

Specimens are labeled with a sample_id of the form {batch_label}{seq} (e.g. A1, C7), where the batch label identifies the print batch they came from. Batch labels are usually a single letter, but J / J_MB are the same 2026-07-06 print batch split by post-processing: J specimens were tested as-printed, J_MB specimens were media blasted before testing. The same sample_id may appear in both configs — C1 in D638 and C1 in D790 are different physical specimens that came from the same Batch C print.

TSR11 in Batch E 3pt test/ exists on disk but has empty Data/ (aborted run, no DAQ scans) and no corresponding xlsx sheet — it is excluded from the JSONL. TSR4 in Batch I flex (Flex 6-30/) is excluded for a similar reason: test_end_reason is "Test Stopped" rather than a detected break.

Batch H's 5 flex specimens (2026_06_30/Flex 6-30/) don't have a raw TestRuns folder — it looks like it was overwritten when the Batch I TestWorks project reused the same default TST1.Test name in the same directory. flex_h_6.30.xlsx is the only surviving record, so those 5 rows are built from that xlsx export alone: the raw load/extension curve (curves.load_n/curves.extension_m) comes from its embedded columns, but curves.strain/curves.stress_pa are empty and several metrics fields (modulus_pa, strain_at_peak, strain_at_yield, etc.) are null, since deriving them requires the support span, which this export doesn't surface. See each row's notes field.

Notes on results

• sample_id and batch_label are null for non-SLS control rows (PLA, PETG, FormLabs PA12GF — they didn't come from an SLS print batch). Filter on material_class == "SLS" to get the rows that link back to Database.
• Batches E–I currently have job_id, print_profile_id, object_hash, and print_profile_snapshot all null — their source print jobs aren't in Database yet. The mechanical results are still valid.
• metrics.peak_* and metrics.*_at_break are often null in the D638 tensile rows because TestWorks did not detect a peak/break point on those runs. D790 flex rows have these fields more consistently populated. The curves.stress_pa / curves.strain arrays are populated regardless, so consumers can re-derive peak/break with their own criteria.
• Batch H's flex rows (data/D790/H1.jsonl–H5.jsonl) are the one exception: their raw TestRuns folder is missing (see Test sessions covered above), so they're built from the TestWorks xlsx export alone. curves.strain/curves.stress_pa are empty and most metrics fields are null for these 5 rows specifically — check notes on a row before assuming a null metric means TestWorks failed to detect it.
• notes is a free-text field, empty for most rows; it's used to flag exceptions like the Batch H flex sourcing above or the FormLabs vertical-print orientation.
• metrics.modulus_pa matches the kN/mm² value in the TestWorks xlsx after unit conversion (e.g. tensile 0.341 kN/mm² → 3.41 × 10⁸ Pa). For D790, TestWorks computes the flexural modulus via the 3-point-bend formula directly; values may look unintuitive compared to the tensile modulus.
• DAQ scans are in SI units (m, N, s); stress is Pa and strain is dimensionless.
• For D790, geometry.gauge_length_mm is always null (gauge length is a tensile concept; flex uses support span which is not surfaced).
