Welding experiments of DP780 high strength steel plate produced by Baosteel with IPG YLR-6000-ST2 fiber laser have been processed. The influence of welding parameters on welding quality has been investigated. As well as microstructure and mechanical character of welding seam have been analyzed. The results show that the joint appearance of DP780 high strength steel welded with IPG YLR-6000-ST2 fiber laser has good performance and the mechanics property is good without fit-up gap. The microstructure of weld bead is columnar crystals, mainly lath-shaped ferrite, needle-like lower bainite and a small amount of martensite. Heat-affected zone is narrow and the grain grows with little size. The measured micro-hardness values of the sample decrease smoothly from weld center to base metal and there does not have softened zone.

The results disclosed that both the microstructure and mechanical properties of AA7075-T6 laser welds are considerably influenced by the heat input. In comparison with high heat input (arc welding), a smaller weld fusion zone with a finer dendrite arm spacing, limited loss of alloying elements, less intergranular segregation, and reduced residual tensile stress was obtained using low heat input. This resulted in a lower tendency of porosity and hot cracking, which improved the welded metal’s soundness. Subsequently, higher hardness as well as higher tensile strength for the welded joint was obtained with lower heat input. A welded joint with better mechanical properties and less mechanical discrepancy is important for better productivity. The implemented high-power fiber laser has enabled the production of a low heat input welded joint using a high welding speed, which is of considerable importance for minimizing not only the fusion zone size but also the deterioration of its properties. In other words, high-power fiber laser welding is a viable solution for recovering the mechanical properties of the high-strength AA 7075-T6 welds. These results are encouraging to build upon for further improvement of the mechanical properties to be comparable with the base metal.
