جوشکاری لیزر CP Ti به فولاد زنگ‌نزن با شکل‌های ضربان زمانی مختلف

ABSTRACT

CP Ti and stainless steel sheets were laser welded by using a pulsed wave Nd:YAG laser welding system. The effect of pulse profiles used in laser welding was studied by investigating weld appearance, weld geometry, microstructure, hardness variation, joint strength and failure mode of welds. Weld quality was strongly affected by the temporal pulse profile adopted in laser welding. In comparison with the use of a normal rectangular pulse profile, stronger welds with a better homogeneity and a complex fracture mode were achieved by using a ramp-down pulse profile. This quality enhancement was contributed from the less degree of intermixing between two welding materials in melting pools.

Numerical and experimental study of thermally induced residual stress in the hybrid laser–GMA welding process

مطالعه عددی و تجربی تنش پسماند حرارتی در فرآیند جوشکاری لیزری هیبریدی-GMA

ABSTRACT

A model based on a double-ellipsoidal volume heat source to simulate the gas metal arc welding (GMAW) heat input and a cylindrical volume heat source to simulate the laser beam heat input was developed to predict the temperature field and thermally induced residual stress in the hybrid laser–gas metal arc (GMA) welding process. Numerical simulation shows that higher residual stress is distributed in the weld bead and surrounding heat-affected zone (HAZ). Effects of the welding speed on the isotherms and residual stress of the welded joint are also studied. It is found that an increase in welding speed can reduce the residual stress concentration in the as-weld specimen. A series of experiments has been performed to verify the developed thermo-mechanical finite element model (FEM), and a qualitative agreement of residual stress distribution and weld geometrical size is shown to exist.
