Problems solved by technology

[0005] Although welding aluminum alloys with laser has many advantages, because the process is immature, there are some problems in welding: ①The absorption of laser energy by aluminum alloy is very low; ②Alloy elements are seriously burned; ③It is easy to produce pores; ④ High thermal crack sensitivity
[0007] The strong reflection of the laser beam on the surface of the aluminum alloy not only causes the loss of most of the precious laser energy, but also seriously threatens the health of the operators

Abstract

The invention relates to an aluminum alloy laser welding method. The method comprises the following steps: firstly carrying out nanometer metal oxide pretreatment on a part to be welded, namely, coating or spraying a nanometer metal oxide layer on the welding bead of an aluminum alloy weldment, wherein the nanometre metal oxide is nanometer yttrium oxide preferably; and then carrying out laser welding. By utilizing the method, the absorptivity of the aluminum alloy surface for laser can be greatly increased up to about 90%, thereby increasing the effective heating depth of the laser, deepening the weld penetration of a welding seam, effectively decreasing the width of the welding seam and the width of a thermal influence area, and improving the structure of the welding seam metal; the crystalline grain of an aluminum alloy welding joint under the action of the nanometre metal oxide can be refined, and finally the weld penetration can be relatively deep. Moreover, the thermal influence area is very small, and the weldment is beautiful in appearance and has fine inner structures.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for butt welding of aluminum alloy plates or profiles, in particular to a laser welding method for aluminum alloys, which belongs to the technical field of metal welding. Background technique [0002] Aluminum alloy not only has high specific strength, specific modulus, fracture toughness, fatigue strength and corrosion resistance stability, but also has good formability, so it has become the most widely used non-ferrous metal structural material, widely used in Structural materials for aviation, aerospace, high-speed rail trains or other vehicles. However, due to the unique physical and chemical properties of aluminum alloy materials, its unique weldability is determined. Therefore, the welding of aluminum alloys requires high-efficiency welding methods with high energy density, low welding heat input, and high welding speed. [0003] Aluminum alloy laser welding technology (Laser Welding) is a new technology develop...
