摘要
CP Ti and stainless steel sheets were laser welded by using a pulsed wave Nd:YAG laser welding system. The effect of pulse profiles used in laser welding was studied by investigating weld appearance, weld geometry, microstructure, hardness variation, joint strength and failure mode of welds. Weld quality was strongly affected by the temporal pulse profile adopted in laser welding. In comparison with the use of a normal rectangular pulse profile, stronger welds with a better homogeneity and a complex fracture mode were achieved by using a ramp-down pulse profile. This quality enhancement was contributed from the less degree of intermixing between two welding materials in melting pools. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
