| Abstract Scope |
Wire-based Direct Energy Deposition (W-DED) is an attractive additive manufacturing (AM) process to replace conventional casting and forging methods due to its net shaping capability and low machining waste. Two common W-DED processes are electron beam additive manufacturing (EBAM) and wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM). Despite their similarities, several key processing variables unique to each technology often produce different chemical and microstructural characteristics, resulting in variable mechanical properties. Characterizing and understanding these differences and how they impact mechanical performance is vital for advancing the adoption of W-DED AM. In this poster, we present our efforts to characterize and assess the microstructural and chemical influences on the resulting tensile properties for EBAM and WAAM processed Ti-6Al-4V. Results are discussed in the context of the complex process-structure-property relationships for W-DED processed Ti-6Al-4V.
