Abstract
Abstract Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to outline the feasibility of using the electrospark welding (ESW) process to free‐form metallic components with nanostructured or amorphous microstructures. Design/methodology/approach – ESW was used to deposit amorphous and nanostructure coatings for high‐wear resistance applications. The ESW process was also used to freeform three‐dimensional objects via multiple deposition passes. The near‐net shape capability is interesting as it significantly reduces the post‐processing operations. Findings – This paper demonstrates that it is possible and economically feasible to produce components possessing metastable structures, i.e. nano or amorphous, using the ESW process. Practical implications – The ESW process possesses the ability to manufacture advanced materials and can pattern surfaces to provide appropriate functionality with respect to the service environment. Originality/value – This paper represents a summary of the capabilities of ESW to fabricate advanced materials and is based on the achievements of our laboratory. In particular, results on ESW of amorphous materials and the ability to produce coatings with second phase particles refined to this extent have not been achieved using other manufacturing methods.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
