Many different metals can be used when applying Wire and Arc Additive Manufacturing. From our experience, we have learned that the most challenging aspect of WAAM is controlling the mechanical properties and the quality of manufactured parts. Many different factors affect the mechanical properties of a WAAM part, e.g. the design, the equipment and the wire feedstock to name a few.
At RAMLAB the resulting material properties are thoroughly evaluated. Quality. Automated.
