| Abstract Scope | Electroslag strip cladding is under investigation as a method for high-productivity metal additive manufacturing. Due to the presence of a molten slag layer, adaptation of electroslag strip cladding to electroslag additive manufacturing (ESAM) requires development of methods for defining and containing the slag layer during solidification. This presentation covers initial convergent (multi-process) experiments exploring the use of gas tungsten arc welding perimeter beads to contain the ESAM slag layer in an additive process and includes mechanical and microstructural characterization of same. The design of an automated multi-robot system for convergent arc-ESAM is then presented along with projected performance metrics. |
