Abstract: Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) using 308 stainless steel offers a versatile method for producing large, complex components with superior mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. This process involves precise control of welding parameters and real-time monitoring to ensure consistent quality. WAAM effectively addresses challenges such as residual stresses through preheating, controlled cooling, and post-processing techniques. The use of 308 stainless steel, known for its excellent weldability and durability, makes it ideal for applications in various industries. With potential advancements in process control and material development, WAAM stands as a promising technology for efficient and high-quality metal fabrication.
