Ti–6Al–4V alloy deposition characteristics at electrode-negative polarity in the cold metal transfer–gas metal arc process

Although wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) of Ti alloys using gas metal arc yields a high deposition rate, cathode spots exhibit unstable behavior. In this study, the cold-metal-transfer process and an electrode-negative (EN) polarity were used in the WAAM process of the Ti–6Al–4V alloy. High-s...
