Wire and arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) offers promise in creating large complex structures due to its flexibility and high material deposition rates. The nickel-based alloy IN718 is favoured for WAAM due to its weldability and compatibility. However, WAAM can introduce issues like anisotropic grain structure, porosity, and residual stresses which can lead to directional variations in tensile, fatigue, and fracture behaviour. This paper studied the WAAM process of IN718, utilising cold metal transfer (CMT). The optimised CMT-WAAM parameters for IN718 were identified to as a wire feed speed of 8–10 m/min and a torch travel speed of 0.5–0.7 m/min, resulting in stable deposition and minimal defects. Nevertheless, columnar grain structures were observed in the build direction (BD), with coarse grains in the wall-length direction (WD). This anisotropic microstructure coupled with stress concentrators, contributes to the directional dependence observed in tensile properties, fatigue endurance, and crack growth. The investigation revealed superior ductility in the BD compared to the WD. Interestingly, the fatigue endurance testing showed a longer life in the WD compared with the BD, attributed to stronger stress concentrators in the BD specimens. However, when examining a cracked specimen, the fatigue crack propagated faster in the WD rather than the BD.
