This PAS provides an overview of the wire fed arc directed energy deposition, more commonly known as wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM), process characteristics, benefits and limitations relative to other DED and conventional processing routes. This is intended to aid potential users in evaluating the suitability of adopting WAAM for a given application.

It also covers:

  • the general architecture and sub-systems that constitute a WAAM machine and their effect on WAAM capability;

  • key process parameters and their influence on the WAAM process;

  • considerations for effective WAAM path-planning, monitoring and control, and post-processing; and

  • terminology relevant to WAAM.

This PAS does not cover other additive manufacturing processes, process qualification or quality assurance, nor does it provide guidance for a specific user application or material.

This PAS is aimed at WAAM machine developers and process parameter developers.

This PAS may also be of interest to potential end users of WAAM technology.

This PAS does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
