dc.description.abstractPAW (Plasma Arc Welding), a WAAM (Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing) technology with high deposition rates, can produce metallic components, layer by layer, of varied sizes, from different alloys, yielding high mechanical performance. Two Ti6Al4V walls are manufactured in an inert argon atmosphere using WAAM-PAW to analyze the deposition process in terms of growth in height per layer, deposition process temperature, and cooling times. The properties of the walls are compared with the values obtained from a thermomechanical simulation and both the microstructural and mechanical properties of the annealed WAAM-PAW wall are studied. Moreover, the effect of the media on the oxidation layer and on the mechanical properties are also analyzed throughout the heat treatment process, as well as the microstructure of Ti6Al4V. Stable deposition rates were achieved for a high deposition ratio of Ti6Al4V at 2 kg/h, restricting the oxygen levels to under 100 ppm. No significant differences were found in either the microstructural or the mechanical properties following heat treatments in a vacuum, in air or in argon. All the heat-treated samples met the AMS4928 standard for Yield Strength (YS) and Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS).en
