On wire and arc additive manufacture of aluminium.
Wire and arc additive manufacture (WAAM) is a process in which an arc is used to melt and deposit beads of feedstock wire layer by layer onto a substrate and then subsequent layers to create near-net shape components. WAAM has the potential to reduce costs and material waste, as well as shorten lead-time, compared to conventional manufacturing methods.
