Abstract:Laser beam welding is a metal fusion technique that, with its high advance speed and low thermal distortion, is used more frequently nowadays in industry. During welding, the solidification front is located in the so‐called mushy zone, which forms the transition region between the completely solidified and mixture zone of solid and fluid material behind the laser beam. In this zone, various process parameters can lead to the formation of included melt areas that may cause cracking when they solidify and shrink… Show more
