| Abstract: |
With the new manufacturing process Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing {WAAM), it is possible to produce new shapes that previously could only be manufactured with a great effort. The energy- intensive manufacturing process can be positively compensated by the sensible use in mainly material-saving components. In this article, the enormous potential is illustrated by the example of a conventional head plate. Here, 80 % of the material can be saved and waste is eliminated completely. The article furthermore presents the printing, the load-bearing tests and the numerical simulation of the novel structure. A homogeneous component behavior is shown, which can be predicted very well by finite elements. |
