Description

Composite laser welding method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of laser welding, and particularly relates to a composite laser welding method.
Background
At present, a plurality of composite welding technologies exist in the field of laser welding, such as an AMB technology of IPG, and an annular light spot technology is added outside a main light spot, so that low-spatter welding can be realized; the Gaussian beam welding technology with different wavelengths can also realize low-spatter welding, and the green light and blue light laser technology also has an improvement effect on spatter. In order to reduce air holes, a laser cleaning technology before welding is developed; laser power is also increasing continuously to increase the depth of the weld, and laser swing welding techniques are used to improve weld surface formation. However, these techniques improve the effect of the weld defect in only one or two aspects, and fail to solve many of the welding problems as a whole. Such as cracking problems, penetration problems, porosity problems, spattering problems, and gap tolerance problems.
In view of the above, it is desirable to provide a hybrid laser welding method that greatly improves the strength of the weld joint and effectively improves all defects of the laser process.

(4) laser welding: the laser beam moves within and along the weld for welding.
The laser preheating realizes the mode of local preheating of the welding seam position, and the laser preheating is carried out on the welding seam position of the workpiece to be welded before welding, because the laser preheating is the local preheating of the welding seam and is non-contact, compared with the integral workpiece or other heating methods, the laser preheating is easier to realize, the laser absorption rate of the material to be welded to laser is higher, thicker materials can be welded by lower laser power, the welding penetration is increased, and the product is not easy to generate air holes after laser cleaning.
The further technical scheme is that in the step (2), the preheating temperature is increased to a temperature which ensures that the temperature around the welding seam is higher than the temperature for reducing the generation of cracks. According to different materials, considering the self-cooling of the workpiece, the preheating temperature is properly increased, so that the temperature around the welding seam is increased to be higher than the temperature for reducing the generation of cracks, and the laser beam not only has the preheating function, but also can melt a surface coating, such as zinc, and can be directly removed; the weld penetration can also be increased.
The further technical scheme is that protective gas is used for welding in the step (4). By adopting the arrangement, the generation of plasma and glow phenomenon is reduced.
The further technical scheme is that laser swing welding is adopted in the step (4). The swing welding is more beneficial to the forming of the surface of a welding seam, is not easy to generate air holes, reduces cracks and the generation of splashing conditions, and also improves the tolerance of the welding seam clearance.
And (3) further adopting the laser beam in the step (2) to move along the welding seam to carry out annealing operation after the step (4) is finished.
For some special materials, the operation is adopted after welding, and the welding seam is annealed, so that the welding seam strength can be greatly improved.
The further technical scheme is that the operation of the step (3) is firstly carried out, and then the operation of the step (2) is carried out. For different materials, the laser cleaning can be carried out firstly, and then the laser preheating is carried out on the product.
The further technical scheme is that the light spots of the laser beams in the step (2) are square or round light spots, and the power distribution of the light spots is uniform, namely the flat-topped laser beams.
The further technical scheme is that all laser beams can swing or not swing and are determined according to the actual process requirements of the workpiece.
Compared with the prior art, the laser welding method has the advantages that three different laser processes of laser preheating, laser cleaning and laser welding are adopted simultaneously, the laser preheating is carried out on the welding seam position of the workpiece to be welded before welding, the laser absorption rate of the material to be welded to laser is higher, the laser welding is lower in laser power and can weld thicker materials, the welding penetration is increased, and after the laser cleaning, the product is not prone to generate air holes. The welding process can greatly improve the strength of the welding seam and effectively improve all defects of the laser process.
