Abstract Cold gas dynamic spray (cold spray) is a deposition technology in which particles achieve supersonic velocities. Commercial purity titanium (CP Ti) is directly fabricated to exploit the potential for cold spray to be utilised as a new fabrication technology. Deposition parameters for elimination of porosity were identified. Results show that using helium as the deposition gas has a significant influence on the elimination of pores. The volume fraction of porosity decreased with a decrease in the distance between the nozzle and the substrate. Furthermore, a decrease in average particle size led to a reduction in porosity of the deposited material. The results show that the directly fabricated CP Ti exhibits a higher hardness compared with wrought CP Ti. Optimisation of cold spray parameters led to a significant reduction of pores in directly fabricated parts.
