A predictive model is presented for the prediction of shear strength in laser welding AISI304 stainless steel. Welding experiments conducted using a pulsed Nd:YAG laser machine while the laser welding parameters and their levels have been arranged according to design of experiments of Taguchi method. The tensile tests are performed after welding and the measurements of tensile strength are further calculated for shear strength. The data can be analyzed using the principles of Taguchi method for determining the optimal laser welding parameters and for investigating the most significant laser welding parameter on shear strength. Furthermore, the results are treated as the training and recalling patterns for constructing a predictive model using back-propagation neuron network to predict shear strength for the range of laser welding operation tested. It is indicated that welding speed is the most significant affecting parameters on shear strength. In addition, an increase in welding speed causes a decrease in shear strength is found. An average error 5.75%for shear strength can be found by comparing the experimental results obtained from conducting verification tests with the predicting values obtained from the established predictive model. It shows that the predictive model is capable of good predicting behavior of laser welding AISI304 stainless steel.

AbstractLaser welding is used in modern industry, having many advantages comparing to traditional welding technologies. Nowadays, industry sectors such as shipbuilding, automotive and aviation can’t be imagined without laser processing technologies. Possibility of increase of welded joint properties, autogenous welding and high level of process automation makes the technology of laser welding perspective part of the industry. Physical multidimensional processes complexity requires a deeper understanding of the impact of laser welding parameters on the quality of welded joints for industrial implementation. The paper presents results of microstructure investigations of laser beam welded stainless steel under various welding parameters. Welded joints was achieved by Ytterbium fiber laser type without the use of the filler material. Material for test was 2205 ferritic-austenitic duplex stainless steel (DSS) plates with thickness of 8 mm in delivery condition. The objectives of this research was to investigate influence of laser welding parameters on weld geometry of butt-welded joints. Investigations of bead shape revealed correlation between laser beam focus position and weld penetration depth.

Abstract. Cold metal transfer (CMT) process is a modified inert gas metal welding process,which characterizes of low heat input and no spatter welding comparing with traditional GMAW process.In this paper,research of the CMT welding features of stainless steel sheet has been conducted.The effects of welding parameters including wire feed rate,welding speed and arc-length modification coefficient on mechanical properties and surface morphology were investigated.In addition,optical micrograph(OM) and scanning electron microscope(SEM) were used to analyze the weld microstructure,and microstructural characteristics were discussed as well.In the end,the optimum welding parameters which were used in real production and achieved good effect were obtained by means of orthogonal experiment.
