Presented at ICALEO 2008
A four kilowatt high power direct diode laser is demonstrated to clad stainless (UNS S41000) and nickel based (UNS N06002) alloys. Trials are conducted using pre-placed as well as argon fed filler metal powders deposited on matching alloy substrates. Parametric tests are performed to define effects of powder depth, powder feed rate, and travel speed. Relationships between such parameters and physical attributes such as reinforcement area and base metal dilu...$28.00

Giuseppe D'Angelo, Centro Ricerche Fiat; Orbassano Italy
Presented at ICALEO 2008
Laser welding is becoming more and more important in automotive industry and quality of the weld is critical for a successful application. In many cases the increase in welding speed provided by laser welding has caused the welding system operator to be unable to keep up with the production rate while inspecting each part. Therefore, real time on-line inspection of the weld must be provided. To address this need, in the last years a number of on-line inspection systems, have being developed to improve wel...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2008
Direct metal deposition is one of the rapid manufacturing technologies to fabricate geometrically complicated, dense, near-net-shape components. Deposition process involves a large number of parameters, among which the laser power is considered as the primary manipulated parameter. In order to develop a control system for the process, molten pool temperature during deposition was monitored by a two-color pyrometer. Laser power and molten pool temperature form...$28.00
