Problems solved by technology

[0010] Post-weld heat treatment usually takes a long time, generally more than 10~15 hours, and the efficiency is low
Moreover, the heat treatment temperature of Al-Mg aluminum alloy is generally about 460°C, maintaining high temperature requires a lot of energy loss and increases the cost
At the same time, due to the limitation of the size of the heat treatment device, the heat treatment process cannot be realized for large structural parts

Embodiment 2

[0047] The 5083 aluminum alloy is welded to the butt joint structure.

[0048] Before welding, mechanically grind the central area of ​​the weld to remove scale, and wipe off oil and other impurities with acetone; during welding, the track of the light spot is a square wave path, such as figure 2 As shown, the swing amplitude H is 2 mm, the swing frequency is 300 Hz, and other welding process parameters are the same as conventional laser welding process parameters.

[0049] The results show that the distribution of magnesium in the weld seam of 5083 aluminum alloy under the conventional laser welding process is extremely uneven, mainly including the β phase of magnesium ( Mg 2 Al 3 ) aggregates and precipitates in the weld, which is more inhomogeneous than the skeletal β phase of the base metal. In the weld seam welded by laser swing welding, the distribution of magnesium element is relatively uniform, close to the base metal, and mainly contains the β phase of magnesium el...

Abstract

The invention provides a homogenized Al-Mg series aluminum alloy weld microstructure laser welding method. The homogenized Al-Mg series aluminum alloy weld microstructure laser welding method comprises the following steps that (1), pre-welding polishing is carried out, wherein a weld center area is firstly mechanically ground, oxide skin on the weld surface is taken out, and acetone is used for wiping oil stains or other impurities; (2), pre-welding parameter adjustment is carried out, wherein a laser head of a laser device is aligned to the place, needing to be welded, of a workpiece, and theheight is adjusted; and (3), waveform welding is carried out, wherein the position needing to be welded is welded, protective gas is used for protection, laser beams advance in the weld direction inparallel, in the advancing process, a galvanometer is used for making the oscillating laser beams symmetrically move back and forth on the two sides in the welding direction, and the light spot motiontrajectory is a square wave path. In the welding process, oscillating of the laser beams can agitate a molten pool and delay solidification in the molten pool, Mg elements in the weld are uniformly distributed, the beta phase (Mg2Al3) is uniformly precipitated, the weld microstructure homogenization is achieved, and the weld mechanical properties are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of welding technology, and relates to a laser welding method for homogenizing the welding seam structure of an Al-Mg series aluminum alloy. Background technique [0002] Al-Mg series aluminum alloy has the characteristics of high specific strength, good plasticity, corrosion resistance and excellent processing performance, and is widely used in molds, ship plates, ship shells, fuel storage tanks and other structures. This type of aluminum alloy is mainly solid solution strengthened by Mg atoms and work hardened. [0003] Laser welding has the advantages of high energy density, small heat input, large penetration with the same heat input, small heat-affected zone, small welding deformation, fast welding speed, and convenient automatic welding. It is increasingly used in the welding field. However, during the welding process of aluminum alloy, due to the characteristics of high heat transfer coefficient of aluminum all...
