Laser Welding of Dissimilar Metal Joint of 6061 Al Alloy and Al Matrix Composite
摘要： In this paper, dissimilar metal joints of 6061 aluminum alloy and aluminum matrix composite material are investigated by laser welding. TiB2 particles were added into the lap joint. The welding process, microstructure, and the corrosion properties of welding joints are examined. The results demonstrate that the selected optimization process parameters are laser power 6 kW, welding speed 0.6 mm/s, pulse width 11.5 ms, and laser frequency 4.5 Hz. There are a few obvious pores in the molten pool. Al2Ti, Fe2Si, and Al0.5Fe3Si0.5 are present in the microstructure. During the welding process, some TiB2 particles are decomposed and reacted with molten Al. Other TiB2 particles are nucleated and solidi?ed, and the excess TiB2 particles are pushed to the grain boundaries by molten Al. TiB2 particles are wetted well by molten matrix metal. The corrosion resistance of alloys in di?erent conditions decreased in the following order: the weld beam >6061 Al > AMC.

Hot cracking in autogenous welding of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy by rectangular pulsed Nd:YAG laser beam
摘要： Due to high hot crack susceptibility of Al-Mg-Si alloys, autogenous welding by rectangular pulsed laser beam has not been generally successful in the removal of cracks. In this research, the effect of pulsed Nd:YAG laser parameters and preheating on the creation of hot cracks in the 6061-T6 aluminum alloy was investigated. The sample that was fabricated by the laser parameters including 1 Hz, 0.12 mm/s, 10 ms, and without preheating exhibited the highest cooling rate and the smallest dendrite arm spacing but no hot crack was observed. The tensile test specimens of this sample fractured at a point far from the weld metal and a decrease in the precipitation of silicon and magnesium in the inter-dendritic space and the reduction of thermal stresses resulted in the elimination of hot cracks. However, according to macro-scale models for the creation of hot cracks, preheating decreased the tensile stresses in the BTR (brittle temperature range), but increasing the preheating temperature led to increasing rather than decreasing the hot crack length. In this case, the formation of hydrogen porosity, the segregation of silicon and magnesium, and the creation of low melting point compounds were the important parameters affecting the hot crack initiation and growth.
