Ultrasonic effects on gas tungsten arc based wire additive manufacturing of aluminum matrix nanocomposite

This study focused on a newly developed ultrasonically assisted (UA) wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) process for metal matrix nanocomposite of AA7075 with TiB2 nanoparticles. The ultrasonic probe was directly dipped into the local molten pool and traveled behind the arc during deposition. Com...
