A review on the laser welding of coated 22MnB5 press-hardened steel and its impact on the production of tailor-welded blanks
摘要: The current demand for vehicles with high fuel efficiency, improved safety and enhanced crash-worthiness qualities is being met by making use of high strength components with tailored mechanical properties which are made using tailor-welded blanks. During their production, the surface of the blank needs to be protected against oxidation and decarburisation. Protective coatings are used to protect the steel surface, with Aluminium-Silicon or Zinc-based coatings being the most popular. This work provides a review on the state-of-the-art as well as the issues associated with the laser welding of coated 22MnB5 grade steel to be used in the production of tailor-welded blanks. The paper provides a summary of existing solutions available to overcome these issues while discussing their limitations and the potential for future work.

Study on ?′-ferrite evolution and properties of laser fusion zone during post-weld heat treatment on Al-Si coated press-hardened steel
摘要: Laser welding of Al-Si coated press-hardened steel (PHS) was still a challenging due to the formation of ?-ferrite in the fusion zone. However, it was ambiguous on the ?-ferrite evolution during post-weld heat treatment (PWHT). In this study, Al-Si coated PHS was welded by laser ?ber and then heat-treated at various temperatures (650 ?C, 950 ?C and 1050 ?C), and the microstructure evolution was investigated by in situ-observation. Mechanical properties and formability of welded joints was analyzed. The results showed that ?-ferrite did not go through phase transformation during PWHT regardless of any temperature, but with a grain boundary ?atted and movement. The presence of coarse ?-ferrite after PWHT was the responsible for the decreasing of tensile strength and formability of welded joints. The initiation crack was easy to generate in the phase interface between ?-ferrite and martensite to form a local brittle fracture zone ?nally. This study results provides a new theoretical criterion for the properties improvement on the laser welding of PHS without removing Al-Si coating.

Interface Microstructure and Nanoindentation Characterization of Laser Offset Welded 5052 Aluminum to Press-Hardened Steel Using a Brass Interlayer
摘要: Laser o?set welding of 5052 aluminum to press-hardened steel using a brass interlayer was carried out. The cross-sectioned macrostructure and tensile strength were governed by varying the thickness of the brass interlayer. The maximum tensile strength reached 56.4 MPa when the thickness of brass interlayer was 0.05 mm. Subsequently, the interface microstructure, the nanoindentation characterization, and the fracture behavior were evaluated experimentally by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS), and micro-X-ray di?raction (micro-XRD), respectively. It was found that the intermetallic compound (IMC) layer at the interface consisted of an Fe2Al5 layer and an FeAl layer, and the estimated nanohardness of Fe2Al5, FeAl, and Fe3Al were 16.11 GPa, 9.48 GPa, and 4.13 GPa, respectively. The fracture of the joint with the 0.05 mm brass interlayer was a mixture of cleavage fracture and intergranular fracture, while that of the joint with the 0.1 mm brass interlayer exhibited the characterization of a major dendrite arm, leaving a metallurgical connected zone consisting of the Al2Cu and the α-Al phase.
