WAAM // History
• 1926 Baker patented “The use of an
electric arc as a heat source to
generate 3D objects depositing
molten metal in superimposed layers”
• 1971 Ujiie (Mitsubishi) Pressure
vessel fabrication using SAW,
electroslag and TIG, also multiwire
with different wires to give
functionally graded walls
• 1983 Kussmaul used Shape Welding
to manufacture high quality large
nuclear structural steel (20MnMoNi5
5) parts – deposition rate 80kg/hr –
total weight 79 tonnes

WAAM // History
• 1993 Prinz and Weiss patent combined weld material build up with CNC milling
Shape Deposition Manufacturing (SDM)
• 1994-99 Cranfield University develop Shaped Metal Deposition (SMD) for Rolls
Royce for engine casings, various processes and materials were assessed –
still in production
800 mm

WAAM at Cranfield // History
• 2006 Airframe companies talk to Cranfield about high deposition rate for titaniumparts
• Target is metre scale parts of relatively simple geometries
• The process is aimed at replacing unsustainable machining from billet or forgings:
– projected requirement for Ti in aircraft over the next 20 years is 18 million tonnes
– Average buy-to-fly ratio for airframes is 5
– meaning 15 million tonnes would be scrap or low value swarf

Business drivers for AM
• Reduction in manufacturing cost
– Reduction in lead time
– Reduction in material waste
• Reduction in design constraints
• Reduction in complex assembly efforts
• Increase in design flexibility
• Distributed manufacturing (f.i. on the Moon)
• Improvement in parts performances (f.i strength/weight, multifunctional,
graded)

WAAM // Features
• Build rates 0.5 - 4 kg/h (titanium ~ 1 kg/h)
• Unlimited build volume
• BTF typical 1.5, always < 2
• 100% dense parts as deposited with no defects
• Specific deposition cost (dependant upon BTF):
– Ti: £300/kg
– Al: £20/kg
– Mild steel: £25/kg
• Freedom of design? Not so much
