키홀 형성을 고려한 레이저 아크 하이브리드 용접 열원 모델링

Abstract

Laser arc hybrid process is actively researched as a new welding method since it has several advantages by the combination of laser beam and electric arc. By the coupling of two different heat sources, laser and arc mutually assist and influence. High power laser can make the deep keyhole and arc plasma can form the large bead shape. In this paper the effect of two different heat sources to weld bead are investigated and as a result of analysis, it is shown that the lower part of keyhole is heated by laser and the upper part of weld pool is dominantly heated by arc.
