| Abstract Scope |
Additive Manufacturing (AM) of high temperature alloys is of particular interest to several industries including the energy industry. Solid state AM technologies like Additive Friction Stir Deposition (AFSD) provide an effective method to produce parts and preform repairs using high temperature alloys. A big drive for the advancement of AFSD is the technology’s potential to replace forged parts, particularly long lead time, low volume forgings. However, the development of high temperature alloys is often limited by deposition tooling. High material costs and increased tool wear contribute significantly to the higher upfront costs associated with AFSD of high temperature alloys. This work focuses on the design and manufacture of the next generation of high temperature AFSD tooling. With particular emphasis on developing ways to prove out novel tool designs faster and with lower upfront costs. |
