Over the past years economic and environmental considerations have led to a markedly increased demand for efficiency and flexibility in petrochemical plants. The operational temperatures and pressures required today can only be achieved by using new creep-resistant grades of steel. The modified 13CrMoV9-10 vanadium steel shows a good resistance against creep and compressed hydrogen and has been in use for the construction of petrochemical reactors since the mid-1990s. Nevertheless, processing of this type of steel requires extreme care during the welding procedure. This is due to its low toughness and high strength in the welded state when not post weld heat treated combined with increased susceptibility to cracking during stress relaxation. Previous research into crack formation in creep-resistant steels has largely focused on thermal and metallurgical factors; however, little knowledge has been gathered regarding the influence of the welding procedure on crack formation during post weld heat treatment considering real-life manufacturing conditions.
In this work, the influence of heat control on the mechanical properties has been investigated by simulating the real-life manufacturing conditions prevailing during the construction of petrochemical reactors using a special 3-D testing facility. The stresses resulting from preheating, welding, dehydrogenation heat treatment and the final post weld heat treatment were measured during experiments under varied heat control. In all experiments stress relief cracks formed during post weld heat treatment could be observed. The total crack lengths correlated with the stresses due to welding. The application of a special acoustic emission analysis indicated that the cracks formed during post weld heat treatment in a temperature range between 300 °C and 500 °C. In comparison to small scale samples welded without additional shrinkage restraint, the toughness of the restrained welds was significantly decreased. SEM and TEM analyses of all samples revealed accelerated aging due to early precipitation of special carbides during post weld heat treatment under component relevant restraint.

The influence of heat control on the mechanical properties has been investigated by simulating the welding and subsequent post weld heat treatment operations during the construction of petrochemical reactors using a special 3-D testing facility on the laboratory scale.
This work is subdivided in two parts. In part I of this study the stresses resulting from preheating, welding, dehydrogenation heat treatment and the final post weld heat treatment were analyzed during experiments under varied heat control. In all experiments stress relief cracks formed during post weld heat treatment could be observed. The total crack lengths correlated with the welding induced stresses.
Part II of this work is dedicated to the characterization of the cracks and the microstructure. The application of a special acoustic emission analysis indicated that the cracks formed in a temperature range between 300 °C and 500 °C during the post weld heat treatment.

Because of its excellent corrosion resistance, a high tensile strength together with a high ductility, duplex stainless steel 2205 offers many areas of application in the chemical and the offshore industry, to name just two. Though welding, especially laser beam welding accompanied by high cooling rates, duplex steels tend to perform higher ferrite contents in weld metal upon cooling down from melting temperature as the base metal. This trend leads to a reduction of the ductility as well as the corrosion resistance of the weld joint. To overcome this problem a solution, based on buffering the plate edges by laser metal deposition with material containing higher Ni concentrations prior to the laser welding was suggested. This method offers more benefits in comparison to conventional usage of higher Ni-alloyed filler wire due to the better control over Ni-distribution in the weld seam, resulting in balanced austenite- ferrite ratio everywhere in the weld metal.
In this context different mixtures of duplex and nickel powder were investigated as well as different process parameters, that enable a smooth surface structure with slightly reduced ferrite contents. In a second step the possibility of welding those edges defect free with standard parameters while achieving balanced austenite- ferrite ratio was verified with metallographic analysis of the microstructure, Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) and impact testing according to Charpy. The improved corrosion resistance of the welds in comparison to unbuffered ones was observed with the ASTM G48 standard test method.
High heat input leads to grain coarsening and softening in WM and HAZ; the tensile strength is reduced. Low heat input leads to inadmissible hardening in the WM; the impact strength is reduced.
The proposed t8/5-time of 3 s to 15 s could be achieved through the reduced welding velocity.
The concept of electromagnetic weld pool support system allowed single-pass welds in flat position without gravity drop-outs even for reduced welding speeds; in this way the heat input can be controlled.
The adaptation of the electromagnetic weld pool support system to laser and laser hybrid welding process can dramatically increase the potential field of application of these technologies for real industrial implementation.
Heute werden in Stahlkonstruktionen zunehmend hochfeste Baustähle (Streckgrenze ≥ 960 MPa) eingesetzt. Daher sind auch in Schweißnähten solche hohen Festigkeiten gefordert. Jedoch können hohe Eigenspannungen aufgrund geringerer plastischer Dehnungsreserven in diesen Schweißnähten die Sicherheit der Bauteile vermindern. Diese sind insbesondere im Zusammenhang mit Wasserstoff und Härtegefügen risskritisch. Niedrige Bauteilbeanspruchungen und Kosteneinsparungen lassen sich heutzutage mit modernen fokussierten Lichtbogenvarianten und engeren Nahtspalten erreichen. Die vorliegende Studie zeigt allerdings, dass diese modernen Schweißprozesse und die angepasste Nahtgeometrie höhere Wasserstoffkonzentrationen und signifikant gesteigerte oberflächennahe Zugeigenspannungsniveaus bedingen. Anhand mehrlagiger Schweißversuche an S960QL unter Variation von Wärmeführung, Lichtbogenvariante und Nahtöffnungswinkel wurden die Effekte und Wechselwirkungen unter Zuhilfenahme von Eigenspannungsanalytik mittels Röntgendiffraktometrie und Wasserstoffanalytik mittels Trägergasheißextraktion systematisch untersucht. Das Schweißgefüge führte unter kritischer mechanischer Beanspruchung und erhöhtem Gehalt an diffusiblem Wasserstoff insbesondere bei geringem Nahtöffnungswinkel und fokussiertem Lichtbogen zu einer deutlichen Ausbildung von Mikrorissen. Die Mikrorisse führten teils zu einer makroskopischen Ausprägung. Durch Analysen zur Nachwärmung aus der Schweißwärme heraus konnten suffiziente Wärmeführungsparameter für eine effektive Prävention solcher Risse erarbeitet werden. Die vorliegende Arbeit zeigt anhand des Interaktionssystems bei der wasserstoffunterstützten Kaltrissbildung Gefüge-Beanspruchung-Wasserstoff, welche Wärmeführungs- und Schweißparameter sich für die hochfesten Feinkornbaustähle zur Kaltrissvermeidung eignen.
Der Implant-Test nach ISO 17642-3 gehört zur Gruppe der fremdbeanspruchten Kaltrisstests, bei dem eine äußere Beanspruchung auf einen zylindrischen Stab (Implant-Probe) definiert aufgebracht wird. Mit dieser Kaltrissprüfung wurde vergleichende Analysen zur Kaltrissempfindlichkeit der modernen hochfesten Feinkornbaustähle S960MC und S960QL durchgeführt.

A novel approach for the reconstruction of an equivalent volumetric heat source from a known weld pool shape is proposed. It is based on previously obtained weld pool geometries from a steady-state thermo-fluid dynamics simulation. Hereby the weld pool dimensions are obtained under consideration of the most crucial physical phenomena, such as phase transformations, thermo-capillary convection, natural convection and temperature-dependent material properties. The algorithm provides a time and calibration efficient way for the reproduction of the weld pool shape by local Lamé curves. By adjusting their parameters, the identification of the finite elements located within the weld pool is enabled. The heat input due to the equivalent heat source is assured by replacing the detected nodes’ temperature by the melting temperature.
The model offers variable parameters making it flexible and adaptable for a wide range of workpiece thicknesses and materials and allows for the investigation of transient thermal effects, e.g. the cooling stage of the workpiece. The calculation times remain acceptably short especially when compared to a fully coupled process simulation. The computational results are in good agreement with performed complete-penetration laser beam welding experiments.
Gut kombiniert: Laser-Plasma-Auftragschweißen
Für den Schutz vor starkem abrasiven Verschleiß (Panzern) oder vor korrosiven Medien (Plattieren) sowie für das Auftragen einer Pufferlage können das Laser-Pulver-Auftragschweißen oder das Plasma-Pulver-Auftragschweißen zum Einsatz kommen. Während das Laser-Pulver-Auftragschweißen eine geringe thermische Belastung verspricht, ermöglicht das Plasma-Pulver-Auftragschweißen hohe Auftragraten. Wissenschaftler des Fraunhofer IPK erarbeiten neuartige Verfahrenskombinationen und Düsenkonzepte, die die jeweiligen Vorteile dieser bestehenden Verfahren vereinen und somit eine hohe Qualität und Effizienz garantieren. So kann beispielsweise die punktgenaue Energie der Laserstrahlung den Plasmalichtbogen stabilisieren und den Wärmeeintrag in das Bauteil besser kontrollieren.
Plasma-Transferred-Arc (PTA) welding is a process that enables high deposition rates, but also causes increased thermal 9 load on the component. Laser based Direct Energy Deposition (DED) welding, on the other hand, achieves a high level of 10 precision and thus comparatively low deposition rates, which can lead to high processing costs. Combining laser and arc 11 energy aims to exploit the respective advantages of both technologies. 12 In this study, different possibilities of this process combination are presented using a PTA system and a 2 kW disk laser. 13 This includes the combination in a common process zone as a highspeed plasma laser cladding technology (HPLC), which 14 achieves process speeds of 10 m/min. Besides that it is being examined whether a pre-running plasma arc can be used to 15 coat difficult-to-weld rail steel with a carbon content of 0.8 % due to a preheating effect. Furthermore, a smoothing of the 16 coating by a plasma arc following the laser is investigated.
Localized laser surface treatments are able to produce tailor-made surface properties to fulfill requirements of a variety of technical applications. Especially micrometric surface topologies can be beneficial for optimizing tribological contact situations. Structures with lowered surface features are already utilized for bearings or cylinders of combustion engines. There are also other fields of application, where the potential of protruding surface features is known, e. g. for metal forming tools.
A promising approach for a tailored surface treatment working in the microsecond range is the localized dispersing of hard ceramic particles by pulsed laser radiation, the so-called laser implantation. This technique is able to produce micrometric surface structures and to improve simultaneously the wear resistance by creating metal matrix composites.
In this talk, the laser implantation technique is described and compared to the state of the art. The potential to adjust the geometry as well as the mechanical properties of laser implanted surfaces is demonstrated by means of microstructural and topographical investigations of different ceramic materials and steel substrates. Finally, results of research projects are presented aiming on the application of such structured surfaces. Their capability to change and optimize friction and wear are demonstrated for fully lubricated contacts, tools for hot sheet metal forming and tools for cold rolling of sheets for automotive applications.
Despite of the significant advances in AM process optimization there is still a lack of experimental results and understanding regarding the mechanical behavior and microstructural evolution of AMparts, especially in loading conditions typical for safety-relevant applications e.g. in the aerospace or power engineering. Within the scope of the presented investigations, a characterization of the fatigue behavior of additively manufactured Ti-6Al-4V in the low cycle fatigue regime was carried out in the range of 0.3 to 1.0 % strain amplitude at room temperature, 250°C and 400°C. The Ti-6Al-4V specimens are machined out of lean cylindrical rods, which were fabricated using powder laser metal deposition (LMD) with an improved build-up strategy. The improved strategy incorporates variable track overlap ratios to achieve a constant growth in the shell and core area. The low-cycle-fatigue behavior is described based on cyclic deformation curves and strain-based fatigue life curves. The lifetimes are fitted based on the Manson-Coffin-Basquin relationship. A characterization of the microstructure and the Lack-of-Fusion (LoF)-defect-structure in the as-built state is performed using optical light microscopy and high-resolution computed tomography (CT) respectively. The failure mechanism under loading is described in terms of LoF-defects-evolution and crack growth mechanism based on an interrupted LCF test with selected test parameters. After failure, scanning electron microscopy, digital and optical light microscopy and CT are used to describe the failure mechanisms both in the longitudinal direction and in the cross section of the specimens. The fatigue lives obtained are comparable with results from previous related studies and are shorter than those of traditionally manufactured (wrought) Ti-6Al-4V. In this study new experimental data and understanding of the mechanical behavior under application-relevant loading conditions (high temperature, cyclic plasticity) is gained. Furthermore, a better understanding of the role of LoFdefects and AM-typical microstructural features on the failure mechanism of LMD Ti-6Al-4V is achieved.
The geometrical characteristics of the weld end crater are commonly used for the validation of numerical results in welding simulation. A semi-analytical model calculating the cooling stage of the welding process after the moving energy source is turned off has been developed. A solution for various combinations of heat sources and workpieces has been found. The theoretical limits for the heat transfer of the absorbed energy during cooling in a thin plate and a semi-infinite body were studied. It is shown that after turning off the energy source, an additional melting of the base material in longitudinal direction may occur. The developed technique is applied to complete-penetration keyhole laser beam welding of a 2 mm thick austenitic chromium-nickel 316L steel plate at a welding speed of 20 mm/s and a laser power of 2.3 kW. The results show a theoretical increase of the weld end crater length in comparison to the length of the steady-state weld pool of up to 19 %. A shift of the centre of the end crater, in which the solidification of the liquid metal ends, towards the tail of the end crater relative to the axis of the heat source at the time of its termination, was computed. The speed and the direction of crystallization of the molten material in the weld pool and the end crater were found to be different. A good agreement between the computational results and the welding experiments was achieved.
Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) is a promising additive manufacturing (AM) technology for metal part production especially for complex and lightweight structures or functional designs. In L PBF processes several by-products including welding plume and its condensates, spatter and ejected powder are generated during laser exposure. Investigations of micro- and nano-sized by-products have received little attention in literature. This study focuses on the analysis of particle emissions in L PBF of 316L stainless steel using a scattered light aerosol spectrometer and a fast mobility particle sizer spectrometer during the process which allows for in-situ analysis of particle sizes in the range of 6 nm to 100 µm. A distinct correlation of emission signals to part position can be revealed. In addition, a significant influence of laser scanning vector directions on emission signals is presented. Furthermore, differing powder layer thicknesses can be recognised by deviations in emission signals.
The shape of the parts, created by the technology of direct laser metal deposition (DLMD), is influenced by various parameters, for example, the power and diameter of the laser source spot. 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.
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.
Der Duplexstahl 2205 bietet aufgrund seiner guten Korrosionsbeständigkeit und der hohen erreichbaren Festigkeitswerte bei guter Duktilität, zahlreiche Anwendungsmöglichkeiten. Jedoch wurde beim Schweißen von Duplexstählen eine Verschiebung des Gleichgewichts zwischen Austenit- und Ferritanteil hin zu höheren Ferritgehalten und damit negativen mechanischen und Korrosionseigenschaften beobachtet. Um diesem Umstand entgegenzuwirken, werden häufig spezielle Schweißzusätze mit höheren Nickelanteilen genutzt, welche bei dickwandigen Strukturen jedoch nicht über die gesamte Schweißnahttiefe nachgewiesen werden können. Dies führt zu unterschiedlichen Eigenschaften und einer höheren Korrosionsanfälligkeit im Wurzelbereich.
Eine Möglichkeit die gleichmäßige Verteilung von Legierungselementen innerhalb der Naht zu gewährleisten, bietet die Erzeugung von Pufferschichten mittels Laser-Pulver-Auftragschweißen (LPA). In diesem Zusammenhang wurden Duplexpulver mit unterschiedlichen Nickelgehalten und verschiedene LPA-Prozessparameter untersucht, die eine ebene Schichtbildung mit verringerten Ferritgehalten ermöglichen. In einem zweiten Schritt konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass das Laserstrahlschweißen der beschichteten Kanten bei üblichen Prozessparametern möglich ist und zu fehlerfreien Schweißnähten mit ausgeglichenem austenitisch- ferritischem Gefüge führt. Der Einfluss unterschiedlicher Schutzgase und verschiedener Nickelgehalte auf die Gefügestruktur wurde für die Beschichtungen und Laserstrahlschweißungen mit Hilfe von Schliffbildern und Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) ausgewertet, wobei gezeigt werden konnte, dass bei ausreichend hohem Nickelgehalt ein feinkörniges Gefüge sowohl in der Pufferschicht als auch der Schweißnaht vorliegt. Die Korrosionsbeständigkeit der Schweißnähte wurde durch Korrosionsuntersuchungen überprüft.
