(Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a TIG welding method used for welding thin plates of metal materials such as stainless steel, titanium, and superalloys. (Prior Art) TIG welding is a method useful for welding the above-mentioned materials and is widely used. However, the plate thickness
It is difficult to weld thin plates of 1.0 mm or less at high speed. Therefore, in order to speed up the
It is known to use multiple electrodes as described in the above publication. Further, a method of preheating using a laser has been proposed as described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 62-6906. (Problems to be Solved by the Invention) It is true that the welding speed can be increased by the multi-electrode TIG technology described above, but there are disadvantages in that the welding bead width is wide and the bead becomes unstable due to magnetic interference of the arc. . Laser preheat welding can certainly increase welding speed, but
The technique described in the -6906 publication uses laser irradiation only for preheating, and has the disadvantage that the welding bead width becomes wider. The object of the present invention is to provide a welding method that dramatically increases the welding speed and allows the inner and outer bead shapes to be narrow and smooth. (Means for Solving the Problem) The present invention performs TIG welding of metal materials with a plate thickness of 1.0 mm or less, and performs calculation using equation (1) at a position preceding the target position of the tungsten electrode and at a distance of 10 mm or less. This is a TIG welding method characterized by performing laser irradiation with an energy density E of 10 4 J/cm 2 or more on the surface of the plate to be welded. E=P/DV...(1) Here, E: Energy density on the plate surface (J/cm 2 ), P: Laser output (Watt), D: Laser beam diameter on the plate surface (cm), V: Beam irradiation The moving speed (cm/s). (Function) When a metal is irradiated with a high energy density laser, plasma is generated, and this plasma has the effect of attracting the arc. Due to this effect, when TIG welding is performed following laser irradiation, the arc concentrates on the laser irradiated area, and due to the combined effect with the preheating effect of the laser, welding can be performed at high speed, with narrow inner and outer bead widths, and a smooth bead shape. Can perform welding. Therefore, it is necessary that the TIG electrode target position and the laser irradiation position be close to each other within 10 mm; if the distance exceeds 10 mm, the plasma arc suction effect will be lost. It is necessary for plasma to be generated as a condition for laser irradiation. As a result of research, in metal materials such as stainless steel, titanium, and superalloys,
The energy density of the laser on the plate surface is
It was found that 10 4 J/cm 2 or more is required. The upper limit of the energy density should be such that the plate does not burn through due to laser irradiation, but this cannot be determined unambiguously because factors such as the material, beam diameter, and focal position are intricately involved. The reason why the plate thickness is limited to 1 mm or less is because if it exceeds 1 mm, welding will be dominated by the penetration phenomenon, and the combined effect of plasma and arc will not be so pronounced. (Example) As shown in Table 1, examples of the present invention are indicated by "*" in the number.
is attached. For TIG welding, a high-frequency pulse TIG welding machine, which is normally used for thin plate welding, was used. From Table 1, it can be seen that according to the welding method according to the present invention, smooth welding of the inner and outer beads can be performed at high speed.
