• Fabrication of geometrical features using wire and arc additive manufacture (2012, background): “The process provides a uniform bead profile resulting in lower surface waviness (SW) and less heat input giving lower distortion and potentially better mechanical properties.(18,21) In summary, previous research has demonstrated that welding processes can be used successfully for additive manufactur”
• An overview of wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) in shipbuilding industry (2020, background): “In comparison to MIG welding, less amount of current is required in CMT and mixing CMT with pulsed MIG welding allows greater material deposition so that thicker sections can be produced with improved weld bead aesthetics (Pickin and Young 2006).”
• Mechanical and microstructural properties of robotic Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) welded 5083-H111 and 6082-T651 aluminum alloys (2014, background): “Packin and Young [15] has successfully welded 3 mm thick AA 6111 aluminum alloys and founded CMT welding process highly competitive for automated welding of aluminum parts.”
• Characterisation of the cold metal transfer (CMT) process and its application for low dilution cladding (2011, background): “The basic operating principles of the process were previously reported by Pickin and Young (2006).”
• A review of wire arc additive manufacturing and advances in wire arc additive manufacturing of aluminium (2018, background): “On account of less possibility of warpage and burnthrough, CMT has been satisfactorily implemented for welding of aluminium sheets [93] and for low dilution cladding of aluminium alloys [94,95] and nickel-based superalloys [96].”
• Thermo-mechanical analysis of Wire and Arc Additive Layer Manufacturing process on large multi-layer parts (2011, unknown): “The heat source is a Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) [23] welding power source, a modified GMAW variant based on a controlled dip transfer mode mechanism, which can provide a high deposition rate capability at a relatively low heat input.”
• Microstructure, texture and mechanical property evolution during additive manufacturing of Ti6Al4V alloy for aerospace applications (2012, methodology): “The reciprocated wire feeding system is synchronized with a high speed digital control that senses the arc length, short circuiting phase and thermal input transferred to the weld [106, 129].”
