Abstract
Metal additive manufacturing has gained popularity due to its significant advancement in minimising waste. The product design using additive manufacturing (AM) does not require mould and less material required, which is less waste. In this way, AM has the potential to transform the manufacturing industries towards greater sustainability. Besides, AM allow more complex designs and shape than conventional manufacturing. Wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) is one of the most popular metal AM that has received significant attention due to its usefulness for localising, repairing, and modifying instead of discarding and replacing entire components. However, conventional welding technology faced the issue of significant heat input, low surface quality, and low dimensional accuracy of WAAM components. Micro-plasma arc welding (MPAW) is a new alternative to the WAAM process. The speciality of MPAW is low current provided of 1A to 25A current range, leading to low heat input and energy-efficient manufacturing. The present study shows various metallic structures developed using an MPAW- based WAAM system, and the relative error between the CAD model and four different structures was determined. Overall, the study outcome shows the geometric uniformity of parts produced with an MPAW-based WAAM system and demonstrates smooth surface finish can be obtained.
