About

Peter Mayr is a prominent researcher specializing in additive manufacturing and advanced materials processing, with a particular focus on arc-based and plasma-based metal deposition technologies. His work has made significant contributions to the development of wire- and powder-based additive manufacturing processes for high-performance metallic materials, including steel and titanium components. Mayr's most influential contribution, "Arc-based additive manufacturing of steel components—comparison of wire- and powder-based variants" (2017), has garnered 55 citations, establishing key insights into the comparative performance of different feedstock approaches in arc-based systems. His subsequent research on 3D plasma metal deposition for titanium parts further demonstrates his commitment to expanding the boundaries of near-net-shape manufacturing, addressing critical challenges such as material utilization efficiency and geometric complexity that conventional production methods struggle to achieve. His research bridges fundamental process science with practical industrial application, making it particularly valuable for engineers and researchers seeking scalable alternatives to laser powder bed fusion technologies. Through his sustained investigation of arc-based deposition methods, Mayr has helped shape modern understanding of cost-effective, high-deposition-rate additive manufacturing strategies for structurally demanding metallic components.
