Abstract

In this study, the characterization of laser weld joint on transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) steel sheets coupled with Nd:YAG laser welding was investigated, and the influence of welding conditions like angle of weld, power of laser, and welding speed on the strength of the joint was measured. The microstructure, tensile behavior, and microhardness of TRIP laser-welded sheets were examined in detail. The power was maintained constant, i.e., 1800 W, and by relatively varying the velocity from 25 to 30 mm/s, the strength of the joint increased drastically to 11%. In contrast, by varying the power, the effect of velocity was reduced; however, the point performance was enormously stable. Finally, the microhardness behavior of the heat-affected zone and fusion zone was investigated and discussed.
