36 Multi-pass welding Suitable for materials typ. >25mm in thickness TWI has completed butt joints in materials up to 60mm in thickness Joint completion strategy can comprise Double sided root weld Using keyhole welding Subsequent fill and cap sequence Using conduction-limited beam melting of a wire feed, in to a narrow groove preparation 36
37 Multi-pass welding Suitable for materials typ. >25mm in thickness TWI has completed butt joints in materials up to 60mm in thickness Joint completion strategy can comprise Double sided root weld Using keyhole welding Subsequent fill and cap sequence Using conduction-limited beam melting of a wire feed, in to a narrow groove preparation 37
38 Multi-pass welding Suitable for materials typ. >25mm in thickness TWI has completed butt joints in materials up to 60mm in thickness Joint completion strategy can comprise Double sided root weld Using keyhole welding Subsequent fill and cap sequence Using conduction-limited beam melting of a wire feed, in to a narrow groove preparation 38
39 Multi-pass root welding Single or double-sided root welding possible, depending on access Overall root face thickness needed depends on parameters used e.g. laser power 8mm single-sided root 13mm single-sided root 39
40 Multi-pass root welding Single or double-sided root welding possible, depending on access Overall root face thickness needed depends on parameters used e.g. laser power 8mm single-sided root 13mm single-sided weld 13mm single-sided 20mm root doublesided weld 40
41 Multi-pass fill welding Conduction-limited melting of wire in to groove using defocused beam Power, speed and wire feed rate optimised for high quality fills Two examples using 5kW laser shown Method can complete joints in 60mm thickness material Transfer of method to other materials possible 41
42 Multi-pass fill welding Conduction-limited melting of wire in to groove using defocused beam Power, speed and wire feed rate optimised for high quality fills Two examples using 5kW laser shown Method can complete joints in 60mm thickness material Transfer of method to other materials possible 42
43 Multi-pass weld qualities and properties Following process development Quality Welds free of cracks, pores and lack of fusion Positive cap and root profiles Properties Welds strength over-matched (in steels) Rp(0.2%) ~400MPa, UTS ~560MPa, ε ~23% (for S355 steel) Without preheat Root welds can be unacceptably hard (dep. on codes), 400HV10 Parts of welded joint can be unacceptably brittle, CVN 22J at -20 C 43
44 Multi-pass weld economics Based on coupon trials, when compared with arc welding Joint completion comparable with or faster Uses less gas shielding and filler wire Five-fold running cost savings estimated possible Energy usage not excessive Laser wall-plug efficiency improving Beam on times short, given joint completion rate Joint completion still faster with EB But EB requires a vacuum! Fill welding time, min, for 1m long butt in 40mm plate 44
45 Reduced pressure welding Atmospheric pressure welding 10µm source = plasma 1µm source = plume Both can attenuate beam If attenuation varies during welding, process can be unstable Welding in vacuum Boiling point significantly supressed Plasma: temperature and density reduces Plume: beam attenuation also measurably reduces Katayama S, Mizutani M and Kawahito Y: Trans JWRI, 40, 2011, No
46 Reduced pressure welding These changes can also occur at reduced pressure TWI has been applying its sliding seal technology developed for reduced pressure EBW to LBW Penetration depth, mm Welding speed, m/min He, 50mbar, 10mm hole He, 50mbar, 5mm hole He, 35mbar, 5mm hole Ar, 50mbar, 10mm hole Ar, 35mbar, 10mm hole Shielded, 1bar With plume control, 1bar 46
47 Reduced pressure welding Reduced pressure welding recently demonstrated using a small-sized, robot-manoeuvrable, sliding seal chamber Laser beam focusing optics Cover slide holder and drawer First port for inert gas for cover slide protection Mounting for robot Port for connection of dial gauge (not shown) Coaxial gas-filled tube Observation window Second port (manifold) for inert gas for cover slide protection Seal Port for connection of vacuum pump (not shown) Atmospheric pressure Brush Reduced pressure 47
48 Conclusions Thick section laser welding relevant to land, sea and air transport applications, and vessels and pipelines Advantages include single pass deep penetration welds, introducing little distortion Traditionally done by high power CO 2 lasers, often requiring plasma control Process hybridised with arc welding, e.g. for fit-up tolerance High power disc and fibre lasers now have the same or better capabilities, albeit plume control can still be needed New processes also being developed, including multi-pass and reduced pressure welding 48
