Abstract

In order to reduce the heat input in arc additive manufacturing, pulse current was adopted. Single-layer beads and multi-layer walls were deposited by direct current and pulse current. The morphology, microstructure and mechanical properties of forming components were analyzed. Experimental results exhibited that the pulse current can reduce the heat input effectively, but it has no obvious impacts on microstructure and mechanical properties of the forming parts.
