Abstract Scope |
Electroslag strip cladding is used industrially to apply corrosion-resistant inner surfaces to process vessels in the chemical industry and elsewhere. Cladding deposition rate and coverage area are subject to continuous industry development to improve the process economics, and therefore the process is uniquely suited to high-throughput additive manufacturing of large metal structures. We report preliminary experiments utilizing an electroslag strip cladding system for high-throughput metal additive manufacturing, including measured build rates, process conditions, and metallurgical characterization of multi-layer prints. |
