Presented at ICALEO 2012
High-strength and ultra high-strength steels are used more and more frequently in the engineering industry. The welding of high-strength steels requires lower heat input welding processes to achieve matching joints. Laser and laser-GMA hybrid welding processes are used for the welding of these kinds of steels. The Finnish steel maker Rautaruukki makes high and ultra-high strength steels under the trademark Optim. In earlier studies, the welding position for these steels has been a flat position ...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2012
The authors have developed laser welding technologies for about 20 years. Our practical application has been started for thin stainless steel products in 1999. In this study, we developed high power laser welding system for thick plate products. A 10kW fiber laser is used for this system. By using this system, we can fabricate thick plate products whose thicknesses are 15mm max. We applied this laser welding system for some parts of chemical pla...$28.00

TIG welding is a common industrially established process. Its main advantage is the weld quality. The drawback is the low process speed which leads to high heat affects, irreversibly destroyed material properties and work piece distortion. To overcome these process limits...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2012
Laser hardening achieves higher heating and quenching rates than other surface hardening methods. High heating rate minimizes the risk of degradation of the underlying material. Self-quenching is based on removing the heat from the surface into the part's core by conduction, instead of the conventional cooling by water spray. Gear wheels, which tend to exhibit numerous cracks upon induction hardening, do not crack during laser hardening. In addition to the above-mentioned principles, this paper explai...$28.00
