Nevertheless, thick-walled steels with a thickness of 20 mm or more are still multi-pass welded using arc welding processes, due to increased process instability by increasing laser power. One limitation factor is the inadmissible formation of gravity drop-outs at the root. To prevent this, an innovative concept of electromagnetic weld pool support is used in this study. With help of such system a stable welding process can be established for 25 mm thick steel plates and beyond. Sound welds could be obtained which are tolerant to gaps and misalignment of the welded parts. The adaptation of this system to laser and hybrid laser-arc welding process can dramatically increase the potential field of application of these technologies for real industrial implementation.

A1 - Gumenyuk, Andrey A1 - Rethmeier, Michael T1 - Mechanical Properties of Single-pass Hybrid Laser Arc Welded 25 mm Thick-walled Structures Made of Fine-grained Structural Steel JF - Procedia Manufacturing N2 - The presented study deals with the performing and mechanical testing of single pass hybrid laser-arc welds (HLAW) on 25 mm thick plates made of steel grade S355J2. One of the challenges have to be solved at full penetration HLAW of thick plates is the drop formation occurring due to the disbalances of the forces acting in the keyhole and on the melt pool surface. Such irregularities mostly limit the use of high-power laser beam welding or HLAW of thick-walled constructions. To overcome this problem, an innovative concept of melt pool support based on generating Lorentz forces in the weld pool is used in this work. This method allows to perform high quality welds without sagging even for welding of 25 mm thick plates in flat position at a welding speed of 0.9 m min-1. For the obtain of full penetrated welds a laser beam power of 19 kW was needed. A high V-impact energy of up to 160 J could be achieved at the test temperature of 0 °C. Even at the most critical part in the weld root an impact energy of 60 J in average could be reached. The tensile strength of the weld reaches that of the base material. An introduce of the HLAW process with electromagnetic support of the melt pool in the industrial practice is an efficient alternative to the time- and cost-intensive arc-based multi-layer welding techniques which are established nowadays for joining of thick-walled constructions.

Pipelines are the safest and most cost-effective way of transporting natural gas. Due to high transport volume and resulting high operation pressure, the demand for ultra-high strength steel grades such as X120 is very strong. As a result of the fact that these steels are produced by thermo-mechanical controlled processing, the welding process must be selected accordingly. Based on investigations, a high heat input such as by submerged arc welding process leads to softening in the weld metal and loss of strength whereas pure laser beam welding results in high cooling rates and deteriorate toughness of the weld metal. The objective of this research is to investigate the influence of heat input to mechanical properties of hybrid laser-arc welded pipeline steels of grade X120. Test specimens with a thickness of 20 mm could be welded without preheating in a single-pass with different welding velocities to observe the largest possible parameter window of the heat input. The achieved V-notch impact energy for hybrid laser-arc welded samples was 144±37 J at a testing temperature of -40 °C. With a tensile strength of 930±4 MPa the requirements of API 5L was achieved. To prevent gravity drop-outs at the slow welding speeds, an electromagnetic weld pool support system was used, which works contactless and is based on generating Lorentz forces. It was therefore possible to control the cooling rate in order to meet the requirements of the mechanical properties. By adapting the electromagnetic weld pool support to the laser and laser hybrid welding process, the application potential of these technologies for industrial implementation can be drastically increased.

The filler wire which is supplied to the process is used to influence the microstructure and mechanical properties of the weld seam. A typical problem in deep penetration high-power laser beam welding with filler wire and hybrid laser-arc welding is an insufficient mixing of filler material in the weld pool, leading to a non-uniform element distribution in the seam. In this study, oscillating magnetic fields were used to form a non-conservative component of the Lorentz force in the weld pool to improve the element Distribution over the entire thickness of the material. Full penetration hybrid laser-arc welds were performed on 20-mm-thick S355J2 steel plates with a nickel-based wire for different arrangements of the oscillating magnetic field. The Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) data for the distribution of two tracing elements (Ni and Cr) were used to analyze the homogeneity of dilution of the filler wire. With a 30° turn of the magnetic field to the welding direction, a radical improvement in the filler material distribution was demonstrated. This would lead to an improvement of the mechanical properties with the use of a suitable filler wire.

However, the fabrication of massive metallic parts with high geometrical complexity is still too time-consuming to be economically viable. The combination of the powder bed-based selective laser melting process (SLM), known for its geometrical freedom and accuracy, and the nozzle-based laser metal deposition process (LMD), known for its high build-up rates, has great potential to reduce the process duration. For the industrial application of the SLM-LMD hybrid process chain it is necessary to investigate the interaction of the processes and its effect on the material properties to guarantee part quality and prevent component failure. Therefore, hybrid components are manufactured and examined before and after the heat treatment regarding the microstructure and the hardness in the SLM-LMD transition zone. The experiments are conducted using the nickel-based alloy Inconel 718.

The contribution of energy from the laser affects the temperature distribution in the formed layers. The changing temperature in the working area entails a Change in the geometry of the layers and affects the stability of the process. In this paper, experiments on the measurement of temperature cycles in the DLMD process with different directions of the filling track are carried out. An infrared camera was used to measure thermal cycles. The calibration of the acquired data (i.e. correspondence table between the intensity of thermal radiation of the material and the absolute temperature) was done with help of two-color pyrometer ex situ and in situ measurements. The experiments are carried out on two materials 316L and Inconel 718. The effect of the maximum temperature on the layer height is shown, and thermal cycles in the formation of layers for different filling strategies are presented.

Assistentenseminar der Füge- und Schweißtechnik N2 - Die Laserimplantation erlaubt die Herstellung verschleißbeständiger, erhabener Mikrostrukturen (Implants) auf Stahloberflächen durch ein diskontinuierliches Dispergieren von keramischen Partikeln mittels gepulster Laserstrahlung. Durch die flexible Anordnung separierter Implants zu komplexen Mustern erlaubt das Verfahren eine gezielte Oberflächenstrukturierung zur Beeinflussung des Reibungs- und Verschleißverhaltens. Insbesondere erwies sich Titandiborid (TiB2) als Implantationsmaterial für geeig-net, da eine Manipulation der Implantgeometrie in einem breiten Bereich vorgenommen werden konnte, ohne dass Materialdefekte wie Risse oder Poren auftraten. Ziel der Untersuchungen war es, den Einfluss implantierter TiB2-Partikel auf die Materialeigenschaften von X153CrMoV12 zu ermitteln. Hierfür wurden im Rahmen der Arbeit die Laserparameter (Pulsleistung und -dauer) in einem breiten Parameterfeld variiert und vergleichende Untersuchungen an TiB2 implan-tierten Zonen sowie an punktuell umschmelzstrukturierten Zonen durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass eine reine Umschmelzstrukturierung zu einer deutlichen Reduktion der Oberflächenhärte aufgrund erhöhter Restaustenitgehalte (γR) führt. Im Gegensatz dazu führt das Laserimplantieren von TiB2-Partikeln zu einer deutlichen Härtesteigerung in den kuppel- oder ringförmigen Implants. Härtewerte von bis zu 1800 HV1 resultieren aus dispergierten TiB2-Primärpartikeln sowie in-situ ausgeschiedenen Se-kundärphasen, durch die der Restaustenitanteil zudem deutlich reduziert wird.

Assistentenseminar der Füge- und Schweißtechnik N2 - In einer Vielzahl technischer Anwendungen spielt die Aufrechterhaltung eines definierten Reibungs- und Verschleißverhaltens zwischen bewegten Oberflächen für die Sicherheit und Funktionalität eine ent-scheidende Rolle. Die Oberflächentechnik versucht durch geeignete Verfahren die Randschichten zu ertüchtigen, um Reibung und Verschleiß zu kontrollieren. Eine Verbesserung der Materialeigenschaften kann durch flächige Beschichtungen erreicht werden. Zusätzlich ermöglichen Oberflächenstrukturierun-gen breite Möglichkeiten zur Beeinflussung des Schmierungszustandes bzw. der Kontaktbedingungen. Neben Negativstrukturen bieten ebenfalls erhabene Mikrostrukturen großes Potenzial zur Beeinflussung des tribologischen Verhaltens. Ihr Einsatz ist aber aufgrund der besonderen Verschleißproblematik er-habener Strukturen momentan limitiert, so dass in der Regel zusätzliche verschleißreduzierende Be-schichtungen notwendig werden. In diesem Beitrag wurde das Verfahren der Laserimplantation angewandt, mit dem erhabene und sepa-rierte Oberflächenstrukturen hoher Verschleißfestigkeit in einem Fertigungsschritt erzeugbar sind. Das Verfahren basiert auf einem lokalisierten Dispergieren von Hartstoffpartikeln. Hierfür wurde erstmalig ein gepulster Faserlaser mit hoher Strahlqualität zur Erzeugung punkt- und linienförmiger Mikrostrukturen angewandt. Versuche wurden auf dem Kaltarbeitsstahl X153CrMoV12 unter Anwendung von Titandibo-rid als Hartstoff durchgeführt. Anhand von Härtemessungen konnte gezeigt werden, dass sowohl punkt- als auch linienförmige Strukturen mit Härten über 1000 HV1 und einer feinkörnigen Mikrostruktur mit feinverteilten Hartstoffpartikeln herstellbar sind. Des Weiteren war es möglich, die Implantgeometrien, welche an Querschliffen und durch Weißlichtinterferometeraufnahmen erfasst wurden, durch die Puls-leistung und Pulsdauer zu steuern. T2 - 38.
