Pulsed Laser Welding

Hot cracking is one of the major challenges in laser welding of Invar alloy. In this study, welding hot cracking susceptibility experiments are conducted with fish-bone‐type Invar alloy sheets under pulsed laser welding condition. The pulse wave consists of two distinct power levels: welding pulse and post-heating pulse. The welding temperature field can be controlled by changing the duration of the post-heating pulse. The results of experimental measurements and finite element method calculation show that increasing of the post-heating pulse duration leads to a decline in the cooling rate of weld metal within the brittle temperature range, although the welding hot cracking susceptibility decreases at first and then increases. Neither the heat input nor the cooling rate is the only decisive factor for hot cracking during the welding process.

Welding Operation

This paper presents an analysis of forces and motions generated during interaction of pulsed laser energy with materials. The effects of this interaction on the subsequent dynamics of the material receiving this energy have important implications in the manufacture of laser diode packages. Small motions which occur during laser welding of the package assembly can cause serious losses in the amount of coupled power, thus degrading the performance of the package. This work is aimed at understanding how these movements occur. Various quantities such as force, acceleration and coupled power variations were measured during a laser welding operation. These measurements establish that significant thermal stress waves are generated during the welding process. However, the final relative motion between cylindrical specimens which are butt-welded by a laser beam occurs due to rapid cooling and shrinkage of the weld pool at the interface of the two specimens.

Process Characteristics

Joining metallic alloys can be an intricate task, being necessary to take into account the material characteristics and the application in order to select the appropriate welding process. Among the variety of welding methods, pulsed laser technology is being successfully used in the industrial sector due to its beneficial aspects, for which most of them are related to the energy involved. Since the laser beam is focused in a concentrated area, a narrow and precise weld bead is created, with a reduced heat affected zone. This characteristic stands out for thinner material applications. As a non-contact process, the technique delivers flexibility and precision with high joining quality. In this sense, the present review addresses the most representative investigations developed in this welding process. A summary of these technological achievements in metallic metals, including steel, titanium, aluminium, and superalloys, is reported. Special attention is paid to the microstructural formation in the weld zone. Particular emphasis is given to the mechanical behaviour of the joints reported in terms of microhardness and strength performance. The main purpose of this work was to provide an overview of the results obtained with pulsed laser welding technology in diverse materials, including similar and dissimilar joints. In addition, outlook and remarks are addressed regarding the process characteristics and the state of knowledge.
