Used YAG pulse laser to weld 304 stainless steel nuts, studied about the parameters such as peak power, pulse width, defocus distance impacting on the performance of the joints welded by laser. The studies showed that the tensile strength and torque of the nuts increased as the peak power and the pulse width increased.Burn through in welding easy occur when laser pulse energy is too big, pulse width is too wide or defocus distance is too low.

The paper presents pulsed Nd:YAG laser welding of the 304 stainless steels. The welding tests were carried out with various operational parameters. The effects of laser welding variables on the geometry, microstructure and solidification of the weld are considered. The austenitic or ferritic solidification is produced in the 304 austenitic stainless steel depended upon the cooling rate and its chemical compositions. The possiblity of austenitic solidification compared with the ferritic solidification decreases with the chromium to nickel equivalent ratio and that increases with cooling rates. Moreover, more δ ferrite is obtained if the cooling rate is increased or the higher power laser is used. The surface of fracture samples was considered and the reason for failure was investigated. The study shows that the fracture is in ductile type.

Product with low cost, lightweight and enhanced mechanical properties were the main reasons welding dissimilar materials thrived by most of the industries. The laser welding technique which has high-energy density beam was found suitable of carrying this task. This paper attempts to investigate welding of AISI 304 stainless steel to AISI 1008 steel through Nd:YAG pulse laser method. The main objective of this study was to find out the weldability of these materials and investigate the mechanical properties of the welded butt joints. Peak power, pulse duration and weld speed combinations were carefully selected with the aims of producing weld with a good tensile strength, minimum heat affected zone (HAZ) and acceptable welding profile. Response surface methodology (RSM) approach was adopted as statistical design technique for tensile strength optimization. Statistical based mathematical model was developed to describe effects of each process parameters on the weld tensile strength and for response prediction within the parameter ranges. The microstructure of the weld and heat affected zones were observed via optical microscope. The results indicate the developed model can predict the response within ±9% of error from the actual values.
