    Hybrid Nd:YAG/MAG welding of ultra high strength steel is studied for 1,5 mm thick sheets in I-, T- and overlap joint type configuration. Untreated and zinc-coated steels were compared, causing distinct differences in terms of process stability and welding result. For zinc coating it can be distinguished between domains of trapped zinc layers like in overlap and T-joints and free surface zinc coatings. Wh...

    Laser hybrid welding stands for a process where laser beam and arc are acting in one common process zone. For five years now, this method has been successfully employed for V-type welds and fillet welds by the Meyerwerft -Shipyard. A new research project deals with the problems of vertical down welds a...

    Duplex stainless steels are used in shipbuilding industry to build chemical and oil tanker vessels. The use of these steels is justified to ensure good corrosion behaviour during lifetime. The main limitation of traditional welding processes when welding duplex stainless steel is that the level of distortion reached is very h...

    In this paper a study on some aspects of the weldability of a Magnesium Aluminium alloy to an austenitic stainless steel through a MIG-Laser combined heat source is presented. In particular the effect on the interface between the two alloys due to the heat source position over the welding sheets was investigated. Using either a steel or an aluminium feed wire the combined heat source was positioned in the following working positions the ideal axis from the torch to...

    Metal cored wires are often used in gas metal arc welding to increase productivity. Cored wires can, however, also easily be designed to affect weld metal composition or arc characteristics. Specially formulated metal cored wires, designed for laser hybrid welding, could therefore potentially be used to improve the arc and weld pool characteristics and enhance the process flexibility, robustness and pr...

    Presented at ICALEO 2007

    In the automotive world, increasing demands regarding weight, safety, and cost have led to the introduction of the so-called advanced high-strength steels (AHSS) . During forming processes, compared to conventional steels, AHSS steel usually has higher yield strengths and much higher ultimate tensile strengths, which require higher press loads and produce greater springback and die wear.
    Heat treating just the areas which are mainly involved in high deformation, could be a ...
