Abstract Scope |
Wire-Arc-Additive-Manufacturing shows promise as a manufacturing method for large structures. However, careful control of material properties is required due to the number of process variables involved. Traditional welding techniques employ many different weaving methods to produce various weld properties in different situations. The effect of these weave patterns on the porosity and tensile strength of the produced prints is studied to determine if a relationship exists been print weave settings and the porosity of printed samples. Walls which have been manufactured using Wire-Arc-Additive-Manufacturing are analyzed using SEM and image analysis software to quantify sample porosity. Similar samples undergo tension testing to determine if the yield point of the samples is affected by weave conditions. |
