the use of twb has been developed in automotive industries because of it’s advantages such as reduction in weight, cost and fuel economy of vehicles. the main objective of the peresent work is to study the effects of weld zone, diffrence in surface coating and thickness ratio on the formability of twb composed of aisi 304, spcc and if steel sheets. it was found that the narrow weld zone has lit...

The dissimilar joint between aluminum/titanium alloys (Al 6082 and Ti G2) were successfully achieved by CO2 laser welding with a single pass and without filler material using the overlap joint design. Laser welding parameters ranges combinations were experimentally determined using Taguchi approach with the objective of producing welded joint with acceptable welding profile and high quality of ...

Femtosecond (fs) laser irradiation has been shown to be effective for welding transparent materials and for transparent materials to metals. However, to date there is little work regarding similar applications in welding/bonding of metals. In this article, we for the first time to the best of our knowledge report on fs laser-induced microwelding of Ag microwires and Cu substrates. The influence...

Minor problems arising from optimizations by welding of fixed prostheses frameworks can be identified by macroscopic and microscopic visual inspection. The purpose of this study was to highlight the visible discontinuities present in the laser welds of dental Ni-Cr alloys. Ni-Cr base metal alloys designated for fixed prostheses manufacture were selected for the experiments. Using cast plates, p...

In the present work CO2 continuous laser welding process was successfully applied and optimized for joining a dissimilar AISI 316 stainless steel and AISI 1009 low carbon steel plates. Laser power, welding speed, and defocusing distance combinations were carefully selected with the objective of producing welded joint with complete penetration, minimum fusion zone size and acceptable welding pro...

Remote laser-welding systems are being used more frequently because of their larger working areas, shorter downtimes and ability to weld different seam types with high accuracy at greater speeds in comparison conventional welding. Therefore, precise process-monitoring methods needed order achieve traceability good process quality control accompany welding situations. This paper proposes the use...

This study evaluated the tensile and flexural strength of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welds in specimens made of commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) compared with laser welds. Sixty cylindrical specimens (2 mm diameter x 55 mm thick) were randomly assigned to 3 groups for each test (n=10): no welding (control), TIG welding (10 V, 36 A, 8 s) and Nd:YAG laser welding (380 V, 8 ms). The specimens were...

The punchless welding point detection system using laser diagnostics for continuous strip production line has been developed. At the entrance of the steel strip production line, the preceding and following coils are welded for continuous processing. The welding point detection and tracking of the position is essential for the setup change of various important processing facilities according to ...
