Preliminary Investigation of Building Strategies of Maraging Steel Bulk Material Using Wire + Arc Additive Manufacture
Source abstract
Abstract
Wire + arc additive manufacture (WAAM) is a new process for fabricating large-scale metallic components. In this paper, the use of cold metal transfer-based WAAM process for the production of maraging steel bulk material is reported. Process parameters were studied, and the effect of building strategies including oscillation, parallel and weaving on bead shape was investigated. The structural integrity of the WAAM bulk material regarding the surface finish, lack-of-fusion issue and microstructure was characterized. Results proved the feasibility of applying WAAM to producing maraging steel bulk material, and weaving was identified to be most recommended building strategy.
