    The high temperature operating components of power utility gas turbines are often made with gamma prime reinforced nickel based superalloys. As a result, there is a very high cost ascociated with the replacement of any parts damaged during service. The economic benefits to be gained by using repair procedures as opposed to rep...

    Inconel 625 is nickel-based supper alloy used in different jet engines for its high corrosion resistance. Laser welding of combustor part of jet engine to replace the existing procedure is a major area of research and development. The specification of this manufacturing process requires the weld to be hermetic sealed. The use of fiber laser and the study of the effect of laser welding par...

    A 2kW Ytterbium fiber laser, YLR-2000, was used for welding of 780MPa grade high strength steel-WEL-TEN780RE. The WEL-TEN780RE steel is a kind of heat rolled, fine microstructure low carbon high strength steel used for welded constructions. The effects of defocusing distance, welding speed, shielding gas and its flow rate on cross section bead shape and penetration were studied in continue wave laser beam welding. The effects of frequency and duty c...

    A laser joining process employing a Nd:YAG laser source, a cold wire feeder and a six axes robot has been developed to produce steel to aluminum transition joints. To obtain good strength, it is critical to minimize the formation of intermetallic phases at the joint. This has been achieved by a careful manipulation of the laser power and the laser beam position. This enabled the steel to be kept in a solid ...

    Presented at ICALEO 2006

    Hot cracking in welding is still an unresolved problem for a wide range of materials. Restricting the chemical composition usually helps to reduce this problem, e.g. limiting the sulphur content on steels to very low levels. But for industrial applications such additional restrictions on the material norm are hardly applicable. Furthermore some steels grades like free cutting steels contain additional sulphur which counteracts this approach. Therefore ...
