旋转频率对TC4钛合金激光-MIG复合焊熔滴过渡的影响

    Effect of Rotation Frequency on Droplet Transfer in Laser-MIG Hybrid Welding of TC4 Titanium Alloy

    • 摘要: 稳定的激光-MIG复合焊是保证焊接接头质量的关键,控制焊接过程稳定性至关重要。本文研究了旋转激光参数变化对TC4钛合金焊丝激光-MIG复合焊过程稳定性的影响。采用高速摄像机和NIDAQ数据采集系统监测焊接过程中的电弧参数、熔滴过渡及等离子体行为。结果表明,激光未旋转时,电弧参数不稳定且熔滴过渡以粗滴过渡为主,飞溅和焊缝中气孔较明显;激光旋转时,随着激光旋转频率的提高,焊缝表面飞溅和气孔率明显减少,熔滴过渡由粗滴过渡转变为稳定的射滴过渡。然而,当旋转频率较低(25 Hz)时,焊接过程中存在熔滴偏移现象;当旋转频率较高(300 Hz)时,其电弧参数不稳定。当旋转频率为150 Hz时,熔滴偏移被消除,焊接过程最稳定,对应的接头表面成型质量好,气孔率和飞溅较少。

       

      Abstract: Stable laser-MIG hybrid welding is the key to ensure the quality of welded joints, and it is crucial to control the stability of the welding process. The influence of the parameter variation of the rotating laser on the process stability of laser-MIG hybrid welding of TC4 titanium alloy welding wire was studied. High speed camera and NIDAQ data acquisition system were used to monitor arc parameters, droplet transfer and plasma behavior during welding. The results show that when the laser does not rotate, the arc parameters are unstable and the droplet transfer is dominated by large droplet transfer with obvious spatter and pores in the weld. When the laser rotates, with the increase of laser rotation frequency, the spatter and pores on the weld surface decrease significantly, and the droplet transfer changes from large droplet transfer to stable projected transfer. However, when the rotation frequency is low(25 Hz), there is a droplet deviation phenomenon during welding. When the rotation frequency is high(300 Hz), the arc parameters are unstable. When the rotation frequency is 150 Hz, the droplet deviation is eliminated, the welding process is stablest, the corresponding joint surface has excellent forming quality with small amount of pores and spatter.
