Abstract: | Effects of various operating parameters of 400 W pulsed Nd:YAG laser on welding of nickel-alloyed copper have been investigated. The induced plume spectra in case of using different assist gases and preheat temperatures have been analyzed and the effects of these key factors on melt features such as penetration depth, porosity and spattering have been attributed to the spectroscopic behavior of the plume. Moreover, the CuI electron temperature and its standard deviation as the spectroscopic responses of the plasma plume to various laser process parameters have been quantitatively evaluated at different average and peak powers and pulse energies. Also, the mentioned responses were utilized to justify the weld bead profile features, involving weld depth, width and their stabilities, at similar process parameters. The operating conditions of welding were optimized, regarding the results of spectroscopic observations and attributing them to the qualitative aspects of the melt pool. |
