Assessment of the Effect of Laser Welding on the Properties and Structure of TMCP Steel Butt Joints

Abstract: The research work and related tests aimed to identify the effect of filler metal-free laser beam welding on the structure and properties of butt joints made of steel 700MC subjected to the TMCP (thermo-mechanically controlled processed) process. The tests involved 10-mm thick welded joints and a welding linear energy of 4 kJ/mm and 5 kJ/mm. The inert gas shielded welding process was performed in the flat position (PA) and horizontal position (PC). Non-destructive testing enabled classification of the tested we… Show more

“…However, this also causes a problem in choosing the right device for a particular application, especially taking into account the constantly shortening response time required by the market. The degree of complexity of current, modern welding technologies based on this type of equipment, along with the mentioned advantages and requirements, forces engineers and constructors to take a different approach to the design stage and search for modern tools supporting the preparation of welding and heat treatment technologies themselves [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ].…”

“…Steel had a carbon equivalent CE of 0.38%, calculated using equation CE = C + Mn/6 + (Cr + Mo + V)/5 + (Ni + Cu)/15 [2,18]. Due to the low weldabilty these steels are welded with a preheating or low energy input or PWHT is used to improve the microstructure and properties of welded joint [11,[13][14][15]18,24].…”

“…Steel had a carbon equivalent CE of 0.38%, calculated using equation CE = C + Mn/6 + (Cr + Mo + V)/5 + (Ni + Cu)/15 [2,18]. Due to the low weldabilty these steels are welded with a preheating or low energy input or PWHT is used to improve the microstructure and properties of welded joint [11,[13][14][15]18,24]. The implemented robotic laser system consisted of: a fibre laser YLR-400AC (IPG Photonics, Oxford, MA, USA) with power 400 W, wave length 1070 nm and beam quality M2 = 1.03, a head for a remote laser welding was model RLSK (HighYAG, Oxford, MA, USA), a robotic arm YR-MC2000-A00 (Yaskawa, Ribnica, Slovenia), and a 3-D module (with accuracy of 0.2 mm).…”

“…Lasers as a heat source have been widely applied in industrial processes [1,2]. Currently, they are used for welding, cutting, remelting, and various processes with surface modification of materials [3][4][5][6]. Laser sources are characterized by: high energy density, high efficiency, large temperature gradients, high repeatability of the process, and formation of a narrow heat affected zone (HAZ).…”
