- The first experimental investigations of indicators that determine service performance of very high rate deposition pulsed-MIG, CMT and WAAM aluminium parts was presented. Hydrogen dissolution within the solidified structures has previously not been assessed and this this paper demonstrated a way to quantify it and how it can influence structural integrity. Funded by the LRF (905 KD022017COV), the new science from this work led the way to refinement of the WAAM process to contribute vital findings to the Horizon 2020 Kraken project (Grant Number 723759), leading ultimately to the KRAKEN machine (joseantonio.dieste@aitiip.com) which has deployed on a commercial basis (https://krakenproject.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/folleto-KRAKEN.pdf).
