Abstract
ABSTRACTWire arc additive manufacture (WAAM) technology has a good development prospect, and can be used to manufacture large metal components with complex shapes in combination with traditional machining equipment. This paper adjusts the parameters from the perspective of heat input and arc control. It is found that the stacking quality of 316L stainless steel is the best when the arc voltage is 40V and the arc current is 360A. It is proposed to obtain the flat layers by pressure machining after every layer is stacked, which can create favorable conditions for manufacturing large-size components. And through the hot rolling experiment, it is proved that pressure machining can improve the density and uniformity of the microstructure, and thus enhance the comprehensive mechanical properties of components built by WAAM.
