摘要: For Al 6k21-T4 overlap weld joint, the shear-tensile strength by using the weaving laser was improved as compared to the case of linear laser. For the specimen of low strength, the porosity was distributed continuously along the intersection between the plates and fusion line. However, for the optimized welding condition, large oval-shaped porosities were located only in the advancing track of the concave part. Therefore, the continuity of cracks and porosities played a key role to determine the strength. And, the weaving width was also the important parameter to control the strength. Furthermore, the concave part had more significant hot and cold cracking in the weld and HAZ, respectively, than the convex part.

Abstract: For Al 6k21-T4 overlap weld joint, the shear-tensile strength by using the weaving laser was improved as compared to the case of linear laser. For the specimen of low strength, the porosity was distributed continuously along the intersection between the plates and fusion line. However, for the optimized welding condition, large oval-shaped porosities were located only in the advancing track of the concave part. Therefore, the continuity of cracks and porosities played a key role to determine the strength. And, the weaving width was also the important parameter to control the strength. Furthermore, the concave part had more significant hot and cold cracking in the weld and heat-affected zone (HAZ), respectively, than the convex part.
