Zusammenfassung:An example system includes an additive manufacturing tool configured to receive a wire from a wire feeder, to receive current from a power source, and to supply the wire to a workpiece during an additive manufacturing process, and a mechanical oscillation system configured to mechanically oscillate a structural component toward and away from the workpiece, wherein the structural component is external to the wire feeder and the power source.
