| Abstract Scope |
Additive Friction Stir Deposition (AFSD) is a growing process within solid-state additive. The process allows for the deposition of material onto a substrate, allowing for near net-shape builds, difficult geometries, and the ability to repair material. However, traditional AFSD requires the use of thick support structures and build materials due to the high forces produced by traditional axial feed system. This study seeks to examine Novel Advanced Solid-State Additive (NASSA), a process that decouples the feed system off axially, which lowers the forces observed in the solid-state additive process dramatically. The NASSA process also produces parts that do not require additional machining after deposition, as the sides of the deposition are smooth. This study will go over the design of this process, the forces, the depositions rates, the mechanical properties, and metallographic properties to better understand the constraints and impacts of this solid-state additive process. |
