| Abstract Scope |
Wire-based electron beam additive manufacturing (EBAM) which is one of directed energy deposition (DED) method uses high power density of electrons as an energy source. EBAM offers an undeniable impact on manufacturing technology. Through EBAM, it is possible to save time and cost of production (high deposition rate) with high efficiency, enable the production of large-scale components and reduce machining time with near net shape experienced rapid production. This paper identifies optimal sets of process parameters to achieve a stable deposition of beads. The preference for the "liquid metal bridge" material transfer mode was established. With the goal of promoting the acceptance of Ti-6Al-4V alloys produced through Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing (EBAM) over traditional methods such as forging and casting, this study aims to comprehensively understand the mechanical properties and microstructural features of EBAM wall. Due to the complex thermal cycles and solid-state phase transformations, graded features of Ti-6Al-4V was observed. Results has been compared with wrought and PBF produced Ti-6Al-4V alloys. |
