AbstractIn this paper, laser welding-brazing of TC4 Titanium (Ti) alloy and Al2O3 ceramic dissimilar material was carried. The results showed that the Ti alloy and Al2O3 were joined by melting filler metal when the laser was concentrated in the Ti alloy side of the joint. The joint with one fusion weld and one brazed weld separated by remaining unmelted Ti alloy. Laser beam offset the Ti alloy 1.5 mm, Ti alloy would not be completely melted in joint. Through heat conduction, the filler metal melted occurred at the Ti-ceramic interface. A brazed weld was formed at the Ti-ceramic interface with the main microstructure of β-CuZn + Ti2Zn3, β-CuZn and Al2Cu + β-CuZn. The joint fractured at the brazed weld with the maximum tensile strength of 169 MPa.

In this paper, laser welding-brazing of 304 stainless steel (SS) and Al2O3 ceramic dissimilar metal material was carried out. The results showed that the SS and Al2O3 were joined by melting filler metal when the laser was focused on the SS side of the joint. One process was one pass welding involving creation of a joint with one fusion weld and one brazed weld separated by remaining unmelted SS. When laser beam was focused on the SS plate 1.5 mm, SS would not be completely melted in joint. Through heat conduction, the filler metal (68.8 wt.% Ag, 26.7 wt.% Cu, 4.5 wt.% Ti) melting occurred at the SS-Al2O3 ceramic interface. A brazed weld was formed at the SS-Al2O3 ceramic interface with the main microstructure of Cu[s.s.] + Ag[s.s.], Ti2Cu + TiFe and Ag + AlCu2Ti. The joint fractured in reaction layer at the ceramic side with the maximum tensile strength of 74 MPa.

Abstract To avoid the formation of Ti-Ni intermetallics in a joint, three laser welding processes for Ti alloy–NiTi alloy joints were introduced. Sample A was formed while a laser acted at the Ti alloy–NiTi alloy interface, and the joint fractured along the weld centre line immediately after welding without filler metal. Sample B was formed while the laser acted on a Cu interlayer. The average tensile strength of sample B was 216 MPa. Sample C was formed while the laser acted 1.2 mm on the Ti alloy side. The one-pass welding process involved the creation of a joint with one fusion weld and one diffusion weld separated by the remaining unmelted Ti alloy. The mechanical performance of sample C was determined by the diffusion weld formed at the Ti alloy–NiTi alloy interface with a tensile strength of 256 MPa.

Ni-based filler metal and Ni-Cu-based filler metal were used to obtain copper/stainless steel (Cu/SS) joints through wire-feeding laser welding. Along the SS/weld interface, there exist different grain sizes (from coarse columnar grains to fine equiaxed grains). The heat affected zone (HAZ) on the copper side consisted of two areas with different grain sizes and the size of the grain in the Cu-HAZ of the Ni-Cu-based filled joint was much smaller than that of the Ni-based filled joint. Our results showed that grain refinement at the copper/weld (Cu/weld) interface of the Ni-Cu-based filled joint was observed through high-resolution electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD). There was a hardness elevation at the Cu/weld interface of the Ni-Cu-based filled joint due to the grain refinement on the weld of the copper side. The maximum tensile strength of the Ni-Cu-based filled joint was obtained and reached 91.2% of the tensile strength of the copper base metal (Cu-BM). Joints in this study were observed to fracture in a ductile mode. Furthermore, the Ni-Cu-based filled joint exhibited a higher plastic deformation, which was primarily caused by the large deformation of the weld zone and the large deformation of the Cu-BM due to the high plasticity of the weld, which alleviated the stress concentration, as indicated by 2D-digital image correlation (DIC) test results.

The article presents applications of high-strength quenched steels in various industrial sectors and the chronological development of various grades of the aforesaid steels. The research-related tests involved flat butt joints made in 7 mm thick steel grade S1300QL, welded using the following methods: TIG, A-TIG, MAG involving the use of a hard flux-cored surfacing wire, MAG method involving the use of a solid wire, T.I.M.E. method involving the use of a solid wire, laser welding method without the use of the filler metal, hybrid (HLAW) method involving the use of a metallic flux-cored wire, electron beam welding without using the filler metal. The research also involved the performance of the mechanical properties of the welded joints made in quenched steel S1300QL using various welding methods. The joints made using the laser welding method, hybrid welding method and the electron beam welding method were characterised by tensile strength higher than the minimum yield point of steel S1300QL, amounting to 1300 MPa. In turn, the tensile strength of the joints made in steel S1300QL using arc welding methods was lower than the minimum yield point of the steel. All of the test joints were subjected to non-destructive digital radiographic tests. The tests concerning the mechanical properties of the joints with respect to various welding methods were subjected to comparative analysis. The research work finished with the formulation of concluding remarks concerning the mechanical properties of the joints.

Traditional welding methods are difficult to adapt to the development of welding technology of aluminum alloys. Laser welding plays an important role in this field increasingly for its advantages. In this investigation, LF21 plate with a thickness of 2mm was welded utilizing the pulsed laser welding and the mechanical properties of the laser welded joints are analyzed. The tensile strength of welded joint is in the range of 196 Mpa to 232 Mpa. The maximum tensile strength is obtained at the working current of 250 A, pulse width of 6 ms and pulse frequency of 2 Hz. The maximum tensile strength can reach 87% of base material. The intensity factor of welded joint is in the range of 74% to 87%. The welded joint can meet the requirements of users.
