    Laser welding of austenitic stainless steel sheets to produce thin wall pipes and chimneys requires an excellent cut edge preparation and a very precise fitting. In order to relax these requirements, laser-TIG hybrid welding of very thin 316L stainless steel sheets (0.4-0.8 mm thick) in a butt joint configuration has been studied. A diode-pumped Nd:YAG lase...

    Due to the progressive use of laser materials processing in industrial mass production and the continuous expansion of process limits, the need of sensor systems for process monitoring increases. Sensor systems are used in process development for gathering process information as well as in the production pro...

    Presented at ICALEO 2005

    A new procedure of in-process monitoring and adaptive control has been developed for laser micro-spot lap welding of A3003 aluminum alloy sheets. The objective is to stably produce sound partial- and full-penetration welds without through-holes. In partial-penetration welds, the reflected laser beam and the radiated heat from the welding area were effective as in-process monitoring signals in detecting melting and though-hole formation in the uppe...

    Sensor Integration for Robotic Laser Welding Processes
    Authors:
    Dimitrios Iakovou, University of Twente; Enschede Netherlands
    Presented at ICALEO 2005

    The use of robotic laser welding is increasing among industrial applications, because of its ability to weld objects in three dimensions. Robotic laser welding involves three sub-processes: seam detection and tracking, welding process control, and weld seam inspection. Usually, for each sub-process, a separate sensory system is required. This may lead to heavy and bulky tools, whereas compact and light sensory systems are needed to reach sufficient accuracy and accessibility. In out solution we will integrate all these functions in one compact mu...

    Presented at ICALEO 2005

    Aluminium alloy 2024 is one of important heat treatable aluminium alloys with its strength gained from the precipitation hardening. Experiments were conducted on Nd:YAG laser keyhole welding of AA2024(T3) sheet of different thicknesses. It was found that the fusion zone of the weld becomes the weakest zone after welding due to the precipitate dissolution. The results obtained from the samples of different thickness show...

    Titanium is used as glasses frames because of its lightweight and good mechanical properties. On the other hand, a fiber laser with high beam quality is a promising heat source to produce a sound weld of satisfactory depth with good surface appearances, narrow heat-affect zones and high strength.

    Nd:YAG lasers with a double focus technique are usually used for welding of aluminium alloys, due to a low melt pool viscosity. For double focus welding, relatively high laser output powers and energy per section are necessary. Thus, techniques for reducing laser powe...

    Peter Schaefer, Trumpf Laser; Schramberg Germany
    Presented at ICALEO 2005

    The quality of laser beam welded seams is strongly influenced by hydrodynamic processes of the liquid material. One phenomenon with negative effects on the seam quality is the so called humping effect which occurs at high welding speed. New types of solid state lasers are allowing reduced focus diameters and consequently higher beam intensities. These improvements can be transferred into increased welding speed. Under the aim to optimize the high speed wel...

    The diode laser brazing of heat-resistant alloys with precious filler metals has been conducted using the tandem beam which consisted of preheating beam and main brazing beam. The 1mm thick plates of Inconel 600 and A286 alloys were butt-brazed using the 0.5mm diameter Au-18%Ni, Ag-10%Pd and Ag-21%Cu-25%Pd filler metals with a brazing flux. The processing parameters of the tandem laser powers and the ...
