Lincoln Electric and ORNL's MDF have solidified a metal innovation pact, scaling Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) to industrial maturity. The multi-robot MedUSA system achieves deposition rates of 100 pounds per hour, enabling the production of 6,000-pound components in 12 weeks-slashing traditional 18-month lead times. 🚀 This shift to high-speed domestic additive production replaces vulnerable overseas supply chains for the Navy and energy sectors. 🛠️ #3DPrinting #WAAM #Manufacturing
