Thermal Modelling and Experimental Validation in the Perspective of Tool Steel Laser Polishing

Abstract: Laser polishing (LP) is a process that allows a significant reduction of the surface roughness of a metal workpiece via re-melting a shallow layer of material. However, the practical use of LP is limited due to the difficulty of satisfying the high surface polishing quality for industries such as jewelry. Hence, this study presents a thermal model based on the Chernoff formula for fixed and moving LP processes. The model was validated via a sensitivity analysis of the coefficient of absorption of the solid and… Show more

“…As mentioned in the introduction, laser power and velocity are the main parameters taken into account in most studies on LP. In contrast, in this study and based on previous experimental works on laser processing [ 16 , 22 , 23 , 24 ], we selected four different factors, and they are: the spot size ( Ø ), the velocity ( ν ), the maximum temperature ( T ) and the overlap ( O ) between two successive parallel lines as illustrated in Figure 1 . The limits of the values were set after some preliminary tests to insure a complete line of fusion on the sample [ 16 ].…”

“…The major advantage of using this parameter is that it allows direct comparison of the different experiments realized at different speeds or with different spot sizes. In this work, the maximum temperature has been determined via numerical simulations developed in a prior work by Meylan et al [ 22 ]. Hence, only a summary of the model/methods is presented in this work.…”
