Feedstock typically comprises either powderor wire. Deposition typically occurs either under inert gas (arcsystems or laser) or in vacu

Although theseare the predominant methods employed in practice, the use ofother energy sources, feedstocks and atmospheres may also fallinto this category.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.

Section 3.2 lists the terminology used in this guide, withmany definitions referring simply to other standards issued byASTM, ISO or AWS. Section 3.3 i
18、s then provided for thereaders convenience, re-listing some of the definitions mostimportant to an understanding of DED so the reader of thisguide does not have to cross-reference numerous other sourcesof information simply be able to read this guide. Please note,however, that the definitions given
19、in 3.3 are NOT keptup-to-date as the official definitions of these terms. The readerneeding the most up-to-date definition should reference theother sources listed.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 active gases, ngases, including those containingcarbon dioxide, oxygen, hydroge
20、n and, in some cases, nitro-gen. Most of these gases, which in large quantities, woulddamage the deposit, when used in small, controlled quantities,can improve deposit characteristics.3.2.2 agglomerates, ncluster of primary particles heldtogether by weak physical interactions.3.2.3 alloy, nsee alloy

ISO/ASTM529003.2.6.1 DiscussionIn ISO/ASTM 52900, the build plat-form of a machine is defined as the base which provides asurface upon which the building of the part/s is started andsupported throughout the build process. In DED, t

39、xt layer. When this term is used inDED, it should be specified whether it refers to a dwellbetween the deposition of individual beads or entire layers.3.2.34 lack of fusion, nflaws caused by incomplete fusionbetween the deposited metal and previously-deposited metal.3.2.35 layer thickness, nprogramm

45、arc welding (PAW),AWS A3.0/A3.0M.3.2.42.1 DiscussionSee Discussion in 3.2.22.3.2.43 plasma transferred arc (PTA), nPlasma Trans-ferred Arc (PTA) is a constricted arc process similar to PlasmaArc Welding (PAW) in most respects. The arc is constrictedusing a water-cooled small diameter nozzle which re
46、duces thearc diameter and increases its power density. PTA differs fromPAW inasmuch as it is used predominantly as a surfacingprocess rather than a joining process. PTA also usually usespowder feed delivery (through powder ports in the nozzle or anannular feed around the nozzle) so is more flexible
47、in terms ofthe alloys that can be deposited, since more alloys tend to becommercially available in powder form than in wire form.3.2.44 powder blend, nquantity of powder made by thor-oughly intermingling powders originating from one or severalpowder lots of the same nominal composition.3.2.44.1 Disc
48、ussionA common type of powder blendconsists of a combination of virgin and used powder. Thespecific requirements for a powder blend are typically deter-mined by the application, or by agreement between the supplierand end-user.3.2.44.2 DiscussionIn traditional powder metallurgy, adistinction is made
49、 between blended powders and mixedpowders, in which case blended powders start with nominallyidentical composition and particle morphology, whereas mixedpowders are composed of powders of different compositions.See definition for mixed powder.3.2.44.3 DiscussionIf combined during the depositionprocess, for example by loading different powders into differ-ent feeders and combining at the point of deposition, thecorrect term is “mix”.3.2.45 powder feeder, nsee powder feeder, AWS A3.0/A3.0M.3.2.46 powder lot,
