Parametric Analysis of High Power Disk Laser Welding of 5052-H32 Aluminium Alloy
摘要： High power disk laser conducting welding of 2 mm thick AA 5052-H32 was performed within a process window and optimized for improved weld quality (i.e. penetration depth). The macrostructure of the weldment was investigated for the weld penetration depth at varying processing parameters using stereo zoom optical microscopy. The significance of the single effects and interaction effects of the parameters on the weld penetration depth was determined using ANOVA. Maximum weld penetration depth (1.71 mm) was achieved at laser power of 2600 W, welding speed of 0.03 m/s and focal position of -3.75 mm. At 95% confidence, only the welding speed –focal position interaction was found to contribute significantly to the weld penetration depth. The effect of the welding speed was most noticeable at low focal position (F < -3.9), that is, when the workpiece is further away from the focus. A linear regression mathematical model predicting the penetration depth of AA 5052-H32 disk laser weldments to an accuracy of 86% was developed and validated.

High-Brightness and High-Power Laser Welding of Powder Metallurgy Shape Memory Alloy: Welding-Parameter-Dependent Microstructure
摘要： Despite the growing interest in using powder metallurgy shape memory alloys, there is limited research on their joining and welding aiming to expand their applications. In this research, we utilized a high-power, high-brightness disk laser welding process to join spark-plasma-sintered Ti-51 at.% Ni shape memory alloy and studied the primary factors that affect the strength and functionality of the created sound welds such as intermetallics and martensite (B19￠) phase formation. The introduction of high-power laser could impede the formation of B19￠ and undesirable intermetallics such as TiNi3 and Ti2Ni; however, the desired Ti3Ni4 would also be suppressed and post-weld heat treatment was necessary to induce them again. The microstructure of fusion zones was significantly altered, producing coarse columnar grains with centerline and equiaxed weld centers. Additionally, high-power laser welding of powder metallurgy Ti-Ni alloy triggered amorphous phase formation in the welds due to rapid cooling. It was found that a laser power of 3 kW and welding speed of 6 m/min are optimal welding parameters, since the produced weld solidified along favorable [001] direction of strain recovery in Ti-Ni shape memory alloys.
