Abstract: | A wide range of pulsed laser welding parameters was identified. These include average peak power density (APPD), peak power,
mean laser power, traverse speed, pulse repetition rate, duty cycle, pulse energy, spot size, and pulse duration. The type
of laser beam temporal pulse shape studied was a rectangular power pulse.
The effects of pulsed laser welding parameters on heat flow, weld dimension, and weldability are investigated. The study shows
that weld quality is principally affected by APPD, mean power, and traverse speed, of which APPD is the most critical process
parameter. A processing map containing the APPD effects is constructed as a guide for producing good welds. |
