AiP Granted for Additive Manufacturing of Pressure Vessels for Human Occupancy
(WAAM) systems globally.WAAM enables the manufacture of large-scale metal components with complex geometries. Unlike powder based additive manufacturing, WAAM uses an electric arc to melt wire feedstock, which gives the end product a higher level of material quality.Compared to traditional manufacturing techniques, such as forging, WAAM offers greater speed of production, along with being able to support a higher degree of design complexity.WAAM’s significant benefits were first realized in the automotive, aeronautical and military sectors. It is now the subsea supply chain solution for pressure
