New Open Source WAAM Framework Could Reducing Costs of Robotic 3D Printing
Researchers have developed an open source architecture for Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing, âWAAMâ. WAAM is a popular 3D printing process, particularly for large-format devices. The idea is to feed standard welding wire feedstock to a toolhead, where a high-energy electrical arc instantly melts the metal. The toolhead is mounted on a robotic arm, which moves… Continue reading New Open Source WAAM Framework Could Reducing Costs of Robotic 3D Printing
