Description

Welding method for welding aluminum/steel dissimilar metal by using three beams of laser
Technical Field
The invention relates to a welding method for welding aluminum/steel dissimilar metals by using three beams of laser, belonging to the technical field of dissimilar metal welding.
Background
The aluminum alloy has the advantages of light weight, high strength, higher corrosion resistance, excellent machining performance and the like, and is widely applied to the aerospace industry, the aviation industry and the automobile industry. For a long time, steel is a main material used for automobile bodies, but with the improvement of fuel economy standards, the realization of energy conservation and emission reduction of automobiles through light weight becomes an important means, so that light aluminum alloy materials are popular in the automobile industry, and many automobile manufacturers adopt all-aluminum alloy to manufacture automobiles. For example, the audi automobile company in germany has already introduced automobiles with all-aluminum body frames in the mid 90's of the 20 th century. All aluminum vehicles, while successful in achieving overall vehicle weight savings, still exhibit problems during actual manufacturing and use. In practical use, people find that the safety of all-aluminum frame automobiles is different from that of the traditional steel automobiles, the safety performance is reduced, and in addition, the manufacturing cost and the selling price are higher. The high-strength aluminum alloy plate has higher forming and processing cost than that of the same steel, and the cost for processing the aluminum alloy welding machine is obviously higher than that of the steel, so that the automobile manufactured by adopting the full aluminum has higher selling price. The cost, the performance and the light weight effect are comprehensively considered, and the structural design of the aluminum/steel mixed material becomes the most important light weight means in the future. Aluminum alloy is a light metal, and its use presents a new problem for the method of joining structural members. For the automobile industry, the welding method is still an economic and reasonable mode, and the welding joint has higher strength and can ensure the safety performance of the automobile; the welding joint can also save raw materials, and the automobile is more environment-friendly while the weight of the automobile body is reduced. By comprehensively considering all factors, the connection of dissimilar metals in the automobile industry is mainly welding.
The aluminum alloy and the steel have large difference of material thermophysical properties and low solid solubility, and intermetallic compounds are formed in the welding heating process to influence the performance of a welding joint. Therefore, the welding of aluminum/steel dissimilar metals is one of the difficult problems in the welding field. At present, some researchers adopt a solid-phase welding and brazing method to realize the connection of aluminum/steel joints, but the application range of the aluminum/steel joints is limited to a certain extent, and parts with complex shapes are difficult to weld. The industrial welding method generally adopts methods such as brazing, diffusion welding and the like for connection, but is limited by process limitations, and the methods have the disadvantages of low welding efficiency, poor processing flexibility and difficult manufacture of large-size parts and complex structural members. Some researchers also weld the dissimilar metals of aluminum/steel by using friction stir welding and arc welding, and research results show that the two methods can realize the connection of the dissimilar metals of aluminum/steel, but the joint strength is low and the flexibility is poor, mainly because the two methods cannot realize the precise control of heat input quantity and inhibit the growth of an intermetallic compound layer in the aluminum/steel joint, so the joint strength is low. With the rise of laser welding, laser welding and brazing show great advantages in the connection of dissimilar metals, which is expressed by high energy density, small heat input amount and high welding efficiency of laser welding, and has certain application prospect in the field of aluminum/steel dissimilar metal welding. In the process of welding and soldering aluminum/steel dissimilar metals, one side of an aluminum base metal is melted and one side of a steel base metal is not melted through the adjustment of a welding process and heat input, and the melted aluminum base metal and a solid steel base metal are soldered to realize the welding of the aluminum/steel dissimilar metals. According to the literature report and research report of the prior publication, the aluminum/steel dissimilar metal welding joint with higher strength and better welding quality can be obtained by adopting laser melting-brazing welding. However, in the laser welding process, the heating range is small, the temperature gradient is large, and certain limitation exists on the accurate temperature field regulation and control required by interface reaction, weld forming and welding stress control.

The low-power laser adopts a continuous fiber laser with the power of 200-800W, preferably the power of the low-power laser is 600W, the width of rectangular light spots (a rectangular light spot 3 irradiated on one side of an aluminum plate and a rectangular light spot 4 irradiated on one side of a steel plate) is 0.5mm, and the length of the rectangular light spots is 1.5 mm. The welding speed of the high-power laser and the low-power laser is 0.1-1 m/min, and the welding speed of the high-power laser and the low-power laser is preferably 0.6 m/min.
Three laser beams are arranged in parallel and are irradiated perpendicular to the aluminum plate 1, the steel plate 2 and the intermediate layer metal 8 to be welded, laser emitted by a high-power laser is focused into a circular light spot 5 to be used as a main beam to be irradiated on one side of the intermediate layer metal 8 and one side of the aluminum plate 1, so that the intermediate layer metal 8 and the aluminum plate 1 are melted; laser shaping that sends two low power laser instrument is the rectangle facula and irradiates in aluminum plate 1 one side and steel sheet 2 one side respectively as auxiliary beam, the long limit of rectangle facula (the rectangle facula 3 of irradiation in aluminum plate one side and the rectangle facula 4 of irradiation in steel sheet one side) is parallel with aluminum plate 1 and steel sheet 2 and intermediate level metal 8's butt joint edge respectively, and the rectangle facula laser beam of irradiation in aluminum plate 1 one side makes aluminum plate 1 take place to melt, and the rectangle facula laser beam of irradiation in steel sheet 2 one side heats steel sheet 2 and the molten state metal liquid of spreading at steel sheet 2 edge, makes molten intermediate level metal 8 and aluminum plate 1 form the metallic compound layer.
The space between the auxiliary light beam and the main light beam on one side of the aluminum plate 1 influences the stability of the welding process, and if the space between the two light beams is too small, the welding process is not stable easily like a single light beam welding process; if the distance between the two light beams is too large, the welding penetration and the welding seam quality are influenced. When the circular light spot 5 of the main light beam and the rectangular light spot of the auxiliary light beam irradiated on one side of the aluminum plate 1 are in a separated, tangent or partially overlapped state, the welding process is stable, the formed keyhole has a larger opening, and the evaporation and the escape of magnesium element in the welding process are facilitated.

Under the condition of ensuring that the steel plate 2 is not melted, the heat input of the rectangular light spot laser beam irradiated on the steel plate 2 is moderate, and the size of the intermetallic compound newly formed at the interface is larger due to overlarge heat input amount, so that the brittleness of a welding joint is increased, and the performance is reduced; if the heat input is too small, a large welding stress is easily generated, cracking occurs at the interface, and the welding performance is difficult to ensure.
