SAE International Titanium Alloy Preforms from Plasma Arc Directed Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing on Substrate Ti-6Al-4V Stress Relieved AMS7004

This specification covers preforms fabricated up through 5.5 inches (140 mm) inclusive in deposition width thickness (see 8.2.5 ) using a Plasma Arc Directed Energy Deposition (PA-DED) additive manufacturing process on a Ti-6Al-4V substrate that are subjected to post-deposition stress relief heat treatment. This is a wire fed additive manufacturing process. If required by the CEO, preforms may require subsequent machining to meet requirements for their intended final part application.
