The influence of shielding gas in hybrid LASER-MIG welding 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Hybrid LASER-GMAW welding technique has been recently studied and developed in order to meet the needs of modern welding industries. The two sources involved in this process play, in fact, a complementary role: fast welding speed, deep bead penetration and high energy concentration can be achieved through the LASER beam, while gap bridgeability and cost-effectiveness are typical of the GMAW process.Particularly interesting, in this context, is the CO2 LASER-MIG welding which differs from the Nd:YAG LASER-MIG technique for the high powers that can be exploited and for the good power/cost ratio of the process.This paper is a part of a wide study on the hybrid CO2 LASER-MIG welding and investigates the influence of the shielding gas both on the stability of the process and on the dimensional characteristics of the weld bead. Two different parameters have been taken into consideration in order to develop this analysis: the shielding gas composition and the shielding gas flow.The experiment, performed on AISI 304 stainless steel plates, has been planned exploiting design of experiment techniques. The results have been analyzed through a statistical approach in order to determine the real influence of each parameter on the overall process. 相似文献

To deepen the understanding of laser-arc hybrid welding, the weld shape and microstructure characteristics of laser-metal inert gas hybrid welded mild steel were analyzed. The results showed typical hybrid weld could be classified as two parts: the wide upper zone and the narrow nether zone, which were defined as arc zone and laser zone, respectively. In the hybrid weld, the microstructure, alloy element distribution and microhardness all have evident difference between laser zone and arc zone. The microstructure of arc zone consists of coarse columnar dendrite and fine acicular dendrite between the columnar dendrites, but that of laser zone is composed of fine equiaxed dendrite in weld center and columnar dendrite around the equiaxed dendrite. Compared to arc zone, laser zone has finer grain size, higher microhardness, smaller alloy element content in the fusion zone and narrower heat affected zone. The discussions demonstrated that the observed difference was caused by the difference of temperature gradient, crystallizing and the effects of arc pressure on the molten pool between laser zone and arc zone. 相似文献

This paper represented the effect of welding wires on microstructure and mechanical properties of 2A12 aluminum alloy in CO2 laser-metal inter gas (MIG) hybrid welding. Plates of 2A12 aluminum alloy were welded by ER4043 and ER2319 welding wires, respectively. Full penetration joints without any defects were produced. The X-ray diffraction was used to analyze the phase composition, while the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was conducted to study the microstructure, segregation behaviors of major alloying elements and the eutectics formed at dendrite boundaries in the joints. The results showed that silicon and copper were concentrated at the dendrite boundaries and α-Al + Si + Al2Cu + Mg2Si eutectic was formed if the ER4043 welding wire was used. However, only copper was concentrated at the dendrite boundaries and α-Al + θ eutectic was formed by ER2319 welding wire. Finally, the tensile tests were performed and the fracture surfaces were analyzed. The results showed that the joint efficiency by ER2319 and ER4043 welding wires reached up to 78% and 69%, respectively. Coarse dimples and voids had been observed in the fractographs. The joints showed a transgranular type failure. 相似文献

Laser welding of non-ferrous alloys is a high-productivity and cost-effective joining technology, which gained an undoubted interest especially in aerospace, chemical and medical industry, where high strength and corrosion resistant mechanical parts are required. Unfortunately some of the most used non-ferrous alloys are highly reactive with respect to the components of the environmental atmosphere: oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen and humidity. This reactivity leads to the formation of porosities and to oxides and nitrides inclusion, which are responsible for a decrease of ductility and strength in welded joints.According to this a good shielding technique of the weld pool is of primary importance in order to obtain sound beads and reliable manufacturings. This paper deals with the opportunity of simulating the shielding gas behavior by means of Computational Fluid Dynamics software in order to understand the relationship among the outlet position, the shielding gas type and its flow rate.A simulation activity was carried out in order to evaluate the behavior of shielding gas concentration surrounding the weld pool. The simulated welding environment was simplified without considering the presence and the effect of the plasma plume. The main results concern the shielding gas contamination prediction with respect to the distance from the beam-material interaction zone. 相似文献

We have developed a unified arc electrode model that enables us to make predictions of the time development of molten drops from the welding wire in gas metal arc welding. The wire is taken as the positive electrode, and the effects of surface tension, magnetic pinch forces, and convection within the drop are taken into account to predict drop detachment for any given arc current. For pure argon, we have previously predicted the sharp transition that is observed experimentally at about 300 A between globular transfer at low current, when drop diameters are larger than the wire diameter, and spray transfer, for currents above 300 A, when drop diameters are smaller than the wire diameter. In this paper, we predict that addition of 25% of CO2 to the argon leads to an increase in the transition current to more than 325 A, also in agreement with published experimental results. For pure CO2, we find a significantly different drop behavior due to the more constricted arc. Both small and large drops are produced, with many very small drops being produced successively between each large drop 相似文献

A study was undertaken to investigate the effect of a high pressure gas environment on the laser welding mechanism. This was specifically related to high power CO2 lasers in the power range between 1.2 and 5 kW. A small high pressure chamber rated up to 150 bar was utilized for the trials. Successful laser welding was completed up to a pressure of 50 bar in the pressurized helium environment. The chamber was modified to incorporate a high pressure transmissive zinc selenide window and internal focusing optics. The initial welds exhibited wide and shallow profiles indicating a loss of keyhole penetration welding. By filming the welding action the problem was found to be the formation of a plasma approximately an order of magnitude larger than in normal atmospheric conditions. The solution was to implement a gas jet system and to use a higher power laser. The resulting welds in terms of penetration and quality were significantly improved. 相似文献

The influences of laser defocusing amount △z, laser power P, space distance DLA between laser and arc on weld penetration, arc modality and stability are investigated in low power YAG laser and metal active gas (laser-MAG) hybrid welding process. The experimental results indicate that the effects of laser-induced attraction and contraction of MAG arc are emerged in hybrid welding process, which result in the augmentation of hybrid welding energy. When DLA : -0.5 - 2 mm, △z = -2 - 2 mm and P ≥ 73 W, the synergic efficiency between laser and MAG arc is obvious, the cross section at the root of hybrid arc is contracted and the hybrid weld penetration is increased. The maximal ratio of hybrid/MAG weld penetration is 1.5 and the lowest YAG laser power that augments MAG arc is 73 W. The input of YAG laser makes the stabilities of arc ignition and combustion prominent in hybrid welding process. 相似文献

Approximate entropy a new statistic to quantify arc and welding process stability in short-circuiting gas metal arc welding 下载免费PDF全文
Based on the phase state reconstruction of welding current in short-circuiting gas metal arc welding using carbon dioxide as shielding gas, the approximate entropy of welding current as well as its standard deviation has been calculated and analysed to investigate their relation with the stability of electric arc and welding process. The extensive experimental and calculated results show that the approximate entropy of welding current is significantly and positively correlated with arc and welding process stability, whereas its standard deviation is correlated with them negatively. A larger approximate entropy and a smaller standard deviation imply a more stable arc and welding process, and vice versa. As a result, the approximate entropy of welding current promises well in assessing and quantifying the stability of electric arc and welding process in short-circuiting gas metal arc welding. 相似文献

This paper deals with an experimental campaign carried out on AA6082 8 mm thick plates in order to investigate the role of process parameters on porosity formation in hybrid LASER-GMA welding. Bead on plate weldments were obtained on the above mentioned aluminum alloy considering the variation of the following process parameters: GMAW current (120 and 180 A for short-arc mode, 90 and 130 A for pulsed-arc mode), arc transfer mode (short-arc and pulsed-arc) and mutual distance between arc and LASER sources (0, 3 and 6 mm). Porosities occurring in the fused zone were observed by means of X-ray inspection and measured exploiting an image analysis software. In order to understand the possible correlation between process parameters and porosity formation an analysis of variance statistical approach was exploited. The obtained results pointed out that GMAW current is significant on porosity formation, while the distance between the sources do not affect this aspect. 相似文献

In deep penetration laser welding, a capillary called keyhole is formed when the energy intensity reaches 106 W/cm2. During this process, the vaporized metal and the surrounding atmosphere can be ionized to form plasma both in and above the keyhole. The stability of the keyhole has an important influence on the properties of welded components and the fluctuations of plasma. In this paper, a method was developed to acquire the stability information from plasma images taken by high-speed photography. The influences of surface impurity and the flowrate of side-assist gas on the stability were investigated. Bead-on-plate welding was performed on 12 mm E-grade shipbuilding steel plates using a 15 kW CO2 laser, with helium as the blowing gas. Three characteristic parameters were used to evaluate the stability. It was found that these three characteristic parameters can effectively indicate the stability variation caused by the surface impurity and gas flowrate. The present research provides important insights into developing image-based sensors to monitor the welding process. 相似文献

We have studied RF discharges as excitation mechanisms for distributed feedback (DFB) CO2 lasers. For CO2 laser plasmas the reduced electric fieldE/N has to be in a well-defined range. The reduced electric fieldsE/N of gas discharges in the narrow gaps with widths of the order of 100 m required for DFB are considerably above this range. In order to study the feasibility of these RF-excited discharges for DFB CO2 lasers we have measured the electron temperatureT
e in their plasmas. From helium-line-intensity ratios we have deduced a lower limit of the electron temperatureT
e of 4eV. The observed high intensities of bands of singly ionized nitrogen indicate an even higher electron temperature, but an efficient pumping of the upper laser level is not possible with an electron temperature above 2.5 eV.We have estimated the electron densityn
e and the current densityj
e from ratios of the intesities of forbidden and allowed helium lines. The high current densityj
e is in the range of abnormal glow discharges.In the gas discharges between narrow gaps the electron oscillation amplitudex
e is large than the electrode separationd. In order to replace the resulting high electron losses a high electron temperatureT
e is necessary to sustain the gas discharge. Because of this high electron temperatureT
e an efficient pumping of the upper laser level is not possible. 相似文献

In laser welding, the shielding gas is commonly used to stabilize the welding process, to improve welded joints features and to protect the welded seam against oxidization. Besides the type of shielding gas used, the nozzle parameters play an essential role. In fact, the chemical composition of the shielding gas and the flow geometry are key factors limiting the size of the plasma plume and its contamination by the surrounding atmosphere, and affecting the final quality of the welded joints.In this work, we present an experimental study on the complex physical phenomena occurring during the interaction between the plasma plume, the laser beam and the shielding gas by using an in-process spectroscopic investigation of the plasma plume characteristics under different operating conditions. A correlation was found between the spectral features and the formation of oxide layers on the surface of the welding seam, caused by defective gas shielding and by the vaporization of alloying elements. Experimental results have given useful indications for the development of innovative welding nozzle for application in laser welding of aluminium alloys. 相似文献

Laser welding processes are widely used for fabrications in many engineering applications such as aerospace and automotives. In this paper, a moving distributed heat source model based on Goldak's method [1] has been implemented into finite volume thermal simulations in order to predict temperature distributions during the welding process of a magnesium alloy and to study the effects of variations in thermal properties, absorption coefficient and gas shielding on the computed temperature distributions and weld pool dimensions. The main conclusion is the significant effects of varying the thermal conductivity and absorption coefficient of magnesium. Also, it has been seen that the shielding gas, besides its main role of protection against oxidation, has a significant effect on the width of the weld pool. Finally, the obtained results have been compared to the experimental ones and a satisfactory correlation has been observed, indicating the reliability of the model developed in this study. 相似文献
