A method for the additive manufacturing of an object and a system for manufacturing an object. The method includes depositing a first foil layer, the first foil layer including a first body section, a first support section connected to the first body section, and a second support section connected to the first body section; depositing a second foil layer, the second foil layer comprising a second body section, a third support section, and a fourth support section; aligning the second foil layer and the first foil layer; and applying at least one of heat and pressure to the first foil layer and the second foil layer to form the object comprising the first body section and the second body section.

Apparatuses, systems, and/or methods for welding systems that provide independent control of a contact tip of a welding torch are disclosed. The welding system can include, for example, a welding torch that includes, for example, a contact tip and a pivot in which the contact tip is coupled to the pivot and is configured to provide wire that is fed through the welding torch during a welding operation. The contact tip and the pivot are configured to independently move the contact tip of the welding torch around the pivot during the welding operation.

A laser welded joint improving the tensile shear strength without causing an increase in the welding time and without using an expensive remote laser head, that is, a laser welded joint obtained by arranging metal sheets overlaid and welding them by a laser beam from the overlaid direction, wherein when a total thickness of the metal sheets welded overlaid is “t” (mm), the width of the weld metal at the joined interface is 0.6t1/3+0.14 (mm) or more.
