The welding of dissimilar metals was carried out using a pulsed Nd: YAG laser to join DP1000 steel and an aluminum alloy 1050 H111. Two sheets of each metal, with 30 × 14 × 1 mm3, were lap welded, since butt welding proved to be nearly impossible due to the huge thermal conductivity differences and melting temperature differences of these materials. The aim of this research was to find the optimal laser welding parameters based on the mechanical and microstructure investigations. Thus, the welded samples were then subjected to tensile testing to evaluate the quality of the joining operation. The best set of welding parameters was replicated, and the welding joint obtained using these proper parameters was carefully analyzed using optical and scanning electron microscopes. Despite the predicted difficulties of welding two distinct metals, good quality welded joints were achieved. Additionally, some samples performed satisfactorily well in the mechanical tests, reaching tensile strengths close to the original 1050 aluminum alloy.

Ni-based filler metal and Ni-Cu-based filler metal were used to obtain copper/stainless steel (Cu/SS) joints through wire-feeding laser welding. Along the SS/weld interface, there exist different grain sizes (from coarse columnar grains to fine equiaxed grains). The heat affected zone (HAZ) on the copper side consisted of two areas with different grain sizes and the size of the grain in the Cu-HAZ of the Ni-Cu-based filled joint was much smaller than that of the Ni-based filled joint. Our results showed that grain refinement at the copper/weld (Cu/weld) interface of the Ni-Cu-based filled joint was observed through high-resolution electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD). There was a hardness elevation at the Cu/weld interface of the Ni-Cu-based filled joint due to the grain refinement on the weld of the copper side. The maximum tensile strength of the Ni-Cu-based filled joint was obtained and reached 91.2% of the tensile strength of the copper base metal (Cu-BM). Joints in this study were observed to fracture in a ductile mode. Furthermore, the Ni-Cu-based filled joint exhibited a higher plastic deformation, which was primarily caused by the large deformation of the weld zone and the large deformation of the Cu-BM due to the high plasticity of the weld, which alleviated the stress concentration, as indicated by 2D-digital image correlation (DIC) test results.

Dissimilar metals joints between aluminum and zinc-coated steel were joined by CMT machine with ER4043 filler metal. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the joints obtained with different heat input were analyzed. The results showed that the thickness of interfacial intermetallic compound was determined by the welding heat input. Tensile specimens were broken in HAZ of aluminum base metal and the tensile strength of the joint can reach 122.3MPa.

Blade Repair

Industrial gas turbine components are subject, in the course of their operating life, to various kinds of damages, requiring repair processes during periodical overhauling operations. Blades, in particular, suffer from creep, corrosion, wear phenomena. The majority of blade damage is currently repaired by means of manual TIG welding, with a filler metal which is often different from the blade alloy. This leads to an inferior metallurgical and mechanical condition of the repaired area as compared to the base metal. Besides, the nickel superalloys of the blades are often subject to cracking during welding operations. A process of laser welding for the repair of the airfoil tip has been introduced and optimized, to improve the characteristics of the repaired component. Powder of the same alloy of the part is used as filler metal, and the process is carried out using a Nd:YAG laser, equipped with a 6–axis CNC motion control. The original blade geometry is rebuilt by multi–layer cladding, then the blade is submitted to machining operations, NDT testing and heat treatment. The optimizing activity has been performed with the aid of microstructural characterization, chemical composition checking (by EDX microanalysis), hardness and stress rupture testing of the welded specimens.

Interface Bonding Strength

Joining of aluminium alloys to steels has been extensively studied, especially in the automotive sector. However, aluminium alloys are known to be difficult to join with steels when methods involving fusion welding are used because of hot cracking problem. Hence, a high strength joint between these dissimilar metals would be of benefit especially in reducing the weight of products. In this work the torch brazing method was applied to join AR500 steel with AA7075 aluminium alloy using Al-Si-Zn base filler metal at various flame times. The effect of the brazing work on the intermetallic phase formation and the mechanical strength of the joints were investigated. In this work, the maximum shear load obtained was 6460 N and the presence of the intermetallic phases had reduced the shear strength of the brazed joints. However, the torch brazing process using Al-Si-Zn filler metal had successfully facilitated the joining of these dissimilar metals.
