Learn about joining additively manufactured materials using various welding processes
November 2023
By: ROBERT KAMINSKI AND TERESA MELFI

We are seeing an increasing number of large components made entirely from weld metal. The additive manufacturing (AM) process might be called weld metal additive, direct energy deposition (DED), or listed by the deposition process used; for example, wire-arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) or gas metal arc additive manufacturing (GMAAM). Apart from the potential to reduce lead time, reduce inventory of low volume components, or achieve designs not previously possible with traditional ma..
