Effect of Local Gas Flow in Full Penetration Laser Beam Welding with High Welding Speeds
Spatter formation is a major issue in deep penetration welding with solid-state lasers at high welding speeds above 8 m/min. In order to limit spatter formation, the use of local gas flows represents a technically feasible solution. By using the gas flow, the pressure balance inside the keyhole, and...
