Presented at ICALEO 2005
Aluminium alloy 2024 is one of important heat treatable aluminium alloys with its strength gained from the precipitation hardening. Experiments were conducted on Nd:YAG laser keyhole welding of AA2024(T3) sheet of different thicknesses. It was found that the fusion zone of the weld becomes the weakest zone after welding due to the precipitate dissolution. The results obtained from the samples of different thickness show...

Sensor Integration for Robotic Laser Welding ProcessesAuthors:
Dimitrios Iakovou, University of Twente; Enschede Netherlands
Presented at ICALEO 2005
The use of robotic laser welding is increasing among industrial applications, because of its ability to weld objects in three dimensions. Robotic laser welding involves three sub-processes: seam detection and tracking, welding process control, and weld seam inspection. Usually, for each sub-process, a separate sensory system is required. This may lead to heavy and bulky tools, whereas compact and light sensory systems are needed to reach sufficient accuracy and accessibility. In out solution we will integrate all these functions in one compact mu...

A new procedure of in-process monitoring and adaptive control has been developed for laser micro-spot lap welding of A3003 aluminum alloy sheets. The objective is to stably produce sound partial- and full-penetration welds without through-holes. In partial-penetration welds, the reflected laser beam and the radiated heat from the welding area were effective as in-process monitoring signals in detecting melting and though-hole formation in the uppe...

Only 10 years ago, the only commercially available high-power, fibre-delivered laser was the lamp-pumped Nd:YAG rod laser. Today however, diode-pumped Nd:YAG rod lasers, thin-disc Yb:YAG and Yb-fibre lasers are also available for material processing. This means that today's laser user needs to consider parameters such as beam quality and power density (and possibly others), in addition to the actual technology used in generating the laser beam, when se...
