High Pulse Energy (HPE) Picosecond (ps) lasers are effective tools for processing a wide range of materials ranging from brittle samples that exhibit chipping/cracking to metals or composite materials such as the novel thin film solar cell material, Copper indium gallium selenide (CIGS), which suffer thermal deformation from long pulse laser processing. Mechanically machining me...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2009
Laser Assisted Machining (LAM) of ceramics is an important area of research concerning the improvement upon conventional diamond grinding machining processes. The problems associated with the machinability of these advanced ceramic materials, specifically silicon nitride (Si3N4), have already lead to previous research work done with LAM. Utilizing the advent of high power fiber diode lasers, current research can now be completed outside the realm of traditional lasers such...$28.00

On the Meaning of Zinc Coatings in Hybrid Welding of Aluminium to Steel

Presented at ICALEO 2009
Laser MIG hybrid welding was recently suggested as a feasible process for joining of aluminium to steel for both structural and tailored blank applications. In this process, the aluminium is molten to create a brazed bond to the zinc-coated steel sheet, which remains solid. To further investigate the effect of process parameters, laser power, MIG arc power, wire feed rate, welding speed and arc position relative to the abutting edges were varied for the case of butt joints of aluminium alloy AA 6...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2009
With the increasing power and performance of high-brightness solid-state lasers, laser-GMAW hybrid welding is becoming more practical for thick-section welding applications. This study evaluated hybrid welding of steel butt joints with a 10kW fiber laser. Welding trials were conducted to evaluate the effect that beam-to-wire distance and process orientation (arc-leading vs. laser-leading) had on the hybrid process. Both full and par...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2009
Hybrid laser-arc Welding of galvanized steels in a gap-free lap joint configuration is a complicated welding process, which is involved in many welding parameters such as laser power, welding speed as well as the distance between laser beam and GTAW torch. Furthermore, the dynamic behaviors of the molten pool, which reflect the stability of the welding process, is significantly affected by the dynamic behaviors of highly-pressurized z...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2009
Laser welding and laser-MAG hybrid welding are used more often in heavy industry. It is very typical that a product earlier welded by arc welding needs changes to its design when laser or laser-MAG hybrid welding processes are considered. This presentation is based on a Masters thesis, the aim of which was to give guidelines for structural designers. The material used in the welding tests was S355K2 (according to EN 10025-2:2004). Joint geometries were butt and T-j...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2009
With the increased interest in Hybrid Laser Arc Welding (HLAW) in the U.S., the process is being certified for use on increasingly higher strength steels. The addition of the laser to the traditional Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) process results in a higher total melt volume than that of the GMAW process alone. Studies of hydrogen content of HLAW welds were carried out in which comparisons w...$28.00
