“…Sysweld has been developed as an FE weld simulation tool for several years [10] . As a software package, it has been demonstrated to offer excellent predictive capabilities regarding thermal predictions, distortions and residual stresses [14][15][16] . However, the current Sysweld modelling framework does have a number of limitations.…”

This paper presents the results of a study on the development of a Metal active gas (MAG) welding technology for an industrial furnace component made of steel S235JRC+N with respect to the minimizationof welding deformation. A numerical simulation of the welding process was performed in the first phase of the research. The numerical simulation was carried out with the SYSWELD software. For the numerical simulation of the welding process, the FEM method was used. In the simulation, four variants of restraint of the industrial furnace wall panel elements during the execution of the welding process were investigated. They differed in the number of restraints (model 1–4). It was found that the difference between the maximum mean strain in model 1 and the lowest mean strain in model 4 was only 11%. A physical simulation of the welding process was then performed with a restraint variant according to model 1. The displacement results obtained from the physical simulation of the welding process were compared with the displacement results from the numerical simulation. Discrepancies between numerical and physical simulation displacement values were found. The quality of selected welded joints was also evaluated. Visual testing (VT) and measurements of weld geometries were performed for this purpose. Metallographic tests and hardness measurements were performed to determine of influence of the welding process on the microstructure of the welded joint area, especially the heat affected zone (HAZ). The results obtained confirm the correctness of the assumptions made regarding the technology of manufacturing the furnace wall panels.

“…As to explore a better and more suitable way to groove by laser, the preliminary exploration of continuous laser grooving for fracture splitting was carried out in this study. With the help of finite element analysis software of SYSWELD, which has been widely used in the welding field [4][5][6][7] but rarely applied in the other processing fields [8,9], the temperature field of continuous laser grooving of an engine connecting rod was carried out. The shapes and the dimensions of the fracture splitting notch under different parameters were analyzed, which can provide the reference for evaluating and optimizing the technology of continuous laser grooving.…”

Fracture splitting processing, which has board prospects in the precision manufacturing of engine connecting rod, has been widely applied in production so far, and laser pre-processing a fracture splitting notch which is a notch as the fracture initiation source for the subsequent splitting process is the important link in the fracture splitting technology. Therefore, the continuous laser grooving for fracture splitting was analyzed and the influence parameters during the continuous laser grooving were studied in this article. Based on the physical process between the laser beam and materials during laser grooving, the finite element analysis model was built for the continuous laser grooving, 3D gauss conical heat source model was checked based on the relative experimental investigation, then the numerical simulation of temperature field of continuous laser grooving of steel C70S6 was carried out, and the influence rule of main process parameters on the morphology of the fracture splitting notch was obtained. Research results showed that the dimension of the notch processed by continuous laser met the production requirement; notch depth and notch width was positively correlated with laser output power but negatively correlated with transverse speed; facula radius was negatively correlated with notch depth but positively correlated with notch width; it is not recommended that transverse speed is too high in the actual production, and smaller facula radius should be selected in the reasonable range of technological parameters to obtain the fracture splitting notch with larger ratio of depth to width. The reasonable selection of process parameters should be as follows: output power is from 400W to 450W, transverse speed is 30mm/s and facula radius is 0.06mm.
