A7N01 aluminum alloy with the thickness of 10mm is welded using fiber laser with filler wire, the microstructures and mechanical properties of the welding joints are observed and analyzed by microhardness and tensile testers, SEM. The results show that the crystalline morphology of the welding metal is equiaxial as-cast. the columnar crystals exist in the fusion zone next to the weld interface. A softening zone with the width of 1.6 mm is formed in the heat affected zone. Micro-hardness of the welding joint distributes uniformly, the highest is in base metal which is 110 HV and the lowest is in the welding joint which is 73 HV. The tensile strength of the welded joint is 281 MPa, the strength coefficient reached 70.6%. the fatigue strengths of the laser welded joint and the base metal are investigated. The results show that the conditional fatigue strength (107) of the laser welded joint can reach up to 63.6% of that of the base metal. there are fatigue striations generated during the steady-state region.

In this paper, A5083-H111 aluminum alloy was welded under different environment temperatures. Microstructures and mechanical properties were analyzed. The results show that the grain size of precipitated phase in welded seam deceased and the content increased with the increase of environment temperature. The hardness was the lowest in welded seam. The hardness increased with the distance away from welded centre. The hardness of welding zone of welded joint was generally low below 0 °C. The strength and toughness were higher at welding temperature above 0°C than that welded below 0°C. If the welding parameters were well controlled, A5083-H111 Al alloy can be welded at temperature ranging from-20°C to 40°C with relative humidity of 50%.
