Abstract: |
The bead on plate welding specimens with the 1mm thickness was fabricated by Nd:YAG pulsed laser SW-1 . The effects of laser process parameters on the weld dimensions, metallurgical and mechanical properties of weld metal were investigated. The results showed that both weld depth and weld width increase with voltage. Unlike base metal that has coaxial grain structure, weld metal is composed of a dendritic structure. Grain growth in the heat affected zone did not occur. However, ultrafine precipitations were deposited at the HAZ which their size was approximately between 500 nm to microns. All tensile specimens failed in the fusion zone. |
