Wire arc additive manufacturing of porous metal using welding pore defects

A novel wire arc additive manufacturing process is proposed to produce porous metal (PM). The innovation is to convert harmful welding pore defects into a beneficial structure of PM, and then the PM parts can be additive manufactured layer by layer. Air was transferred to the molten pool as pore pro...
