The Innovation in wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM): A review

Abstract

This review or research paper is illustrated to analytically assess and address one of potential industrial revolutions, which is Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM). WAAM is classified from Hybrid Manufacturing (HM) processes. Thus, one of the Hybrid Manufacturing ultimate goals has always been to transcend the limitation aspects associated with the tradition process. As Artificial Intelligence (AI) has evolved and expanded all over the globe, Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been gradually developed and introduced to the world to be one of a distinguished innovative impact in the history of manufacturing. Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been improved over the conventional methods in the manufacturing world due to its advanced complexity, consistency, quality of work, and various advantages and contribution that satisfy the costumers needs and requirements. Various applications in the industry have proven the AM applicability to replace the conventional processes such as casting and machining as it can deal with very coplex shapes
