ABSTRACT Introduction. The paper presents the results of research of additive manufacturing process by electric arc with axial feeding of steel fi ller wire in protective gas environment (GMAW technology) with additional infl uence of external longitudinal magnetic fi eld on electric arc. Purpose of work: an experimental study of the eff ect of a longitudinal magnetic fi eld during additive manufacturing by an electric arc with axial feed of fi ller wire made of structural steels in a shielding gas environment on the change in the geometrical characteristics of the layers being surfaced. Research Methods. The manufacturing of specimens was carried out on a 5-axis additive machine based on a CNC machine. Surfacing was carried out in the following modes: voltage 17.5 V; current 55–65 A; wire diameter 1.2 mm; wire material Sv-08G2S; wire feed rate 2,267 mm/min; approximate roll diameter 3.0 mm; roll length 50 mm; number of wires per one roll 312.5 mm; number of layers when surfacing the wall 5; magnet operation mode: alternating current with frequency 50 Hz, voltage 30 V; measured magnetic induction 5.7 mTl; initial height of the magnet above the substrate 10 mm; electrode stickout 10 mm; shielding gas: welding mixture CO2-Ar; gas pressure (fl ow rate) 0.15 MPa. Results and discussion. The conducted experimental study showed that the eff ect of longitudinal magnetic fi eld had a statistically signifi cant eff ect on the change in the dimensions of the singular, namely an increase in the width of the layers being surfaced by 34.1 %, with a calculated signifi cance index close to zero, and a decrease in height by 20.2 %, with a calculated signifi cance index equal to 2.7×10−5. The eff ect of longitudinal magnetic fi eld had a statistically signifi cant eff ect on the change of the overall dimensions of the specimens consisting of fi ve layers, namely, the width of the specimens increased by 11.2 % with a calculated signifi cance index of 4.3×10−3, and the height of the specimens decreased by 10.3 % with a calculated signifi cance index of 6.3×10−5. The eff ect of longitudinal magnetic fi eld had no statistically signifi cant eff ect on the change of the vertical deviation from straightness for the side walls of the specimens, with a calculated signifi cance index of 0.3277, and had no statistically signifi cant eff ect on the change of the error of the width of the walls of the specimens, with a signifi cance index of 0.098.

This technology is characterized by high productivity in shaping products and has wide versatility, which explains a great interest in its use in various industries, and is the main reason for a large number of scientifi c works in this area [1–7]. The main factors hindering the expansion of the scope of application of this technology are quite low accuracy of the fabricated parts characterized by large
