Defined specimens were welded fully automatically with a special WAAM solid wire (yield strength >820 MPa) with different geometric designs. The residual stresses state before and after cutting of the AM structure from the substrate plate were analyzed by means of X-ray diffraction on the specimen surface and complementary by 3d deformation analyses using photogrammetry. The results reveal significant influences of the geometry on the relaxation and redistribution of residual stresses.

Eine etablierte Methode ist die sogenannte Varestraint-Prüfung, welche auch an der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) als modifizierter Varestraint/Transvarestraint-Test (MVT) zum Einsatz kommt. Die Ergebnisse von Varestraint-Prüfungen hängen jedoch stets in unterschiedlichem Maße von der individuellen Prüfmaschinenauslegung und den verwendeten Prüfparametern ab. Dies kann zu einer uneinheitlichen Bewertung des Rissverhaltens führen, wenn die Risslänge konventionell als Kriterium für die Rissneigung herangezogen wird. Scheinbare Abhängigkeiten von Prozessparametern erschweren dann die Interpretation der Ergebnisse. Eine neuartige Bewertungsmethodik entkoppelt den Maschineneinfluss vom Materialverhalten und verwendet die Dehnrate als Risskriterium in Analogie zu Prokhorovs Heißrissmodell. Die neue Auswertung wird anhand einer Studie hochfester Schweißzusatzwerkstoffe vorgestellt, deren Rissverhalten in Abhängigkeit der chemischen Zusammensetzung und der Schweißparameter bewertet wird.

A surface pretreatment is not necessarily needed. We measured quantitatively hydrogen in steel samples, which were charged either electrochemically or by high-pressure hydrogen gas and compared the results. Further, the feasibility of quantitative hydrogen line scan measurements was demonstrated by measuring hydrogen at water jet cut surfaces. The hydrogen concentrations measured with the help of LIBS were compared with CGHE measurements. It was observed that hydrogen can be reliably measured with LIBS for concentrations larger than 2 wt.-ppm. The results show that LIBS is a promising technique for time- and spatially resolved measurements of hydrogen in steel and steel weldments. Results of time-dependant hydrogen permeation experiments will also be presented.

T1 - Influence of the WAAM process and design aspects on residual stresses in high-strength structural steels N2 - Wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) enables the efficient production of weight-optimized modern engineering structures. Further increases in efficiency can be achieved by using high-strength structural steels. Commercial welding consumables for WAAM are already available on the market. Lack of knowledge and guidelines regarding welding residual stress and component safety during production and operation leads to severely limited use for industry applications. The sensitive microstructure of high-strength steels carries a high risk of cold cracking; therefore, residual stresses play a crucial role. For this reason, the influences of the material, the WAAM process, and the design on the formation of residual stresses and the risk of cold cracking are being investigated. The material used has a yield strength of over 800 MPa. This strength is adjusted via solid solution strengthening and a martensitic phase transformation. The volume expansion associated with martensite formation has a significant influence on the residual stresses. The focus of the present investigation is on the additive welding parameters and component design on their influence on hardness and residual stresses, which are analyzed by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD). Reference specimens (hollow cuboids) are welded fully automated with a systematic variation of heat control and design. Welding parameters and AM geometry are correlated with the resulting microstructure, hardness, and residual stress state. Increased heat input leads to lower tensile residual stresses which causes unfavorable microstructure and mechanical properties. The component design affects heat dissipation conditions and the intensity of restraint during welding and has a significant influence on the residual stress.

LTT welding consumables are characterized by a martensitic phase transformation near ambient temperature, which generates compressive residual stresses in the weld and heat affected zone (HAZ). The aim is to achieve a weld geometry, which generate high compressive residual stresses at the fatigue crack critical weld toe. Longitudinal stiffeners were gas metal arc welded using a conventional welding consumable; the base material was a high strength steel S700M. A chromium-nickel alloyed LTT consumable was deposit subsequently just on front sides of the stiffeners. Different welding parameters led to varying cross sections of the weld. The residual stresses were determined using X-ray diffraction (XRD) in the crack critical HAZ. When using only the conventional, the HAZ is characterized by high tensile residual stresses. The additional application of the LTT alloy leads to a significant reduction of the tensile residual stresses. Depending on the weld geometry, even compressive residual stresses can be observed at the weld toe T2 - ECRS 2024 CY - Prague, Czech Republic DA - 03.06.2024 KW - LTT (Low Transformation Temperature) KW - Residual stress reduction KW - Fatigue PY - 2024 AN - OPUS4-60305 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Wandtke, Karsten T1 - Influence of the WAAM process on residual stresses in high-strength steels (IIW-Doc. II-A-408-2022) N2 - High-strength fine-grain structeural steels have great potential for weight optimization of many modern engineering structures. Efficient manufacturing can be achieved here above all by Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM). First commercial high-strength welding consumables for WAAM are already available. However, due to a lack of knowledge and guidelines for the industry regarding welding residual stresses and component safety in manufacturing and operation, their application is still severely limited. Residual stresses play a crucial role here, as the sensitive microstructure of high-strength steels carries a high risk of cold cracking. For this reason, process- and material-related influences, as well as the design aspects on residual stress formation and the risk of cold cracking, are being investigated in a recent project (FOSTA-P1380/IGF21162BG). This high strength of the WAAM welding consumables is adjusted via a martensitic phase transformation. The volume expansion associated with martensite formation has a significant influence on residual stress evolution. However, this has not yet been investigated in relation to the processing of high-strength steels by WAAM. The aim of this work is to establish a WAAM cold crack test and easy-to-apply processing recommendations that will allow economical, expedient, and crack-resistant fabrication of high-strength steels, especially for SME. This paper focuses on the analysis of the effects of welding heat control and design of WAAM components on cooling conditions, microstructure, mechanical-technological properties and residual stresses. For this purpose, geometrically defined specimens (hollow cuboids) are welded fully automatically with a special, high-strength WAAM solid wire (yield strength >790 MPa). The heat control and specimen dimensions are varied within a statistical experimental design. The weld heat control is adjusted in such a way that the t8/5 cooling times are ensured within the recommended processing range (approx. 5–20 s). For this purpose, additional thermo-physical forming simulations using a dilatometer allowed the complex heat cycles to be reproduced and the resulting ultimate tensile strength of the weld metal to be determined. The WAAM welding of complex geometries with varying welding heat control and geometric factors or wall thicknesses not only has an effect on the cooling conditions, cooling times and microstructure, but also has a significant influence on the structural restraint conditions during welding. Hence, the welding experiments show significant effects of specimen scaling and heat input on the welding residual stresses, which may be detrimental regarding component properties and crack-critical tensile residual stresses. These complex interactions are analyzed within this investigation.

Schweißen wird dabei als wirtschaftliches Fügeverfahren im Zusammenhang mit Altstählen kaum genutzt, obwohl Nieten- und Schraubenverbindungen oft unwirtschaftlich sind. Für die Instandsetzung ist häufig beschädigtes Bestandsmaterial durch neue Stähle zu ersetzen bzw. Alt-Neu-Stahl-Mischverbindungen herzustellen. Aufgrund der verschiedenen Herstellungsprozesse von Altstählen ist nicht jeder Stahl aus dem 20. Jahrhundert schweißgeeignet. Daher ist zunächst eine Schweißeignungsprüfung erforderlich. In den vorliegenden Untersuchungen wurden verschiedene Altstähle hinsichtlich ihres Schweißverhaltens mittels Dilatometrie analysiert. Ziel war es, eine Datenbasis aus Schweiß-Zustands-Zeit-Diagrammen und Simulationen der Wärmeeinflusszone zu erstellen, um praxisrelevante Schweißuntersuchungen ableiten zu können. Diese geben wesentlichen Aufschluss hinsichtlich ihres schweißmetallurgischen Verhaltens und ihrer Schweißeignung.

The reduced tensile stress leads to an improvement in the fatigue strength of welded components. LTT filler metals are characterized by a reduced martensite start temperature (Ms), which is close to room temperature because of their chemical composition. This paper focuses on the hybrid use of LTT filler metals, where the LTT filler is applied as an additional layer to conventional welds on fatigue-critical spots. Conventional gas metal arc welded longitudinal stiffeners are used as specimens and at the face ends of the stiffeners, a second LTT layer was added with various weld modifications. These modifications were achieved by changing the welding parameters such as welding speed and offset to the first layer. These samples were used to analyze shape, dilution and resulting Ms, residual stress and fatigue strength. The dilution and dilatometer verified Ms did not change significant, although the surface of the 2nd LTT weld seam was varying clear with each modification. However, the weld modification had a significant effect on the residual stress state and the fatigue strength. The X-ray determined residual stress in the HAZ became lower when the weld toe of the LTT layer was further away from the stiffener. The Fatigue strength is clearly dependent on the residual stress state. The lower the residual stress at weld toe, the higher the fatigue strength. All samples with LTT weld exhibit significantly higher fatigue strength values than conventionally single and double-layer welded samples. The results show that on the one hand LTT filler metals increase the fatigue strength, and on the other hand the impact of LTT fillers materials is not restricted to the dilution and Ms, the shape of the weld seam must also be considered.
