Abstract
- In this paper, the 14 μm single-mode laser oscillation welding technique was adopted to achieve high-quality welding of 2A12 aluminum alloy. Specifically, its influence on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the joint and the formation mechanism were investigated. The results showed that the ultra-small spot laser (28 μm) was able to achieve sequential oscillation of the molten pool with small amplitude (0.1 mm). The increased frequency caused the average grain size to decrease and the grain boundary length increased in the fusion zone. Meanwhile, the average grain orientation difference increased, and the growth orientation was more dispersed and homogeneous. While reducing weld morphology defects and refining grain microstructure, there was little influence on the penetration and width morphology of the weld. Finally, successfully prepared welds with tensile strength up to 410.4 MPa and elongation simultaneously increased to 4.065 % at 200 Hz. Furthermore, the influence of keyhole oscillation on the molten pool flow at small amplitude was explained by high-speed camera observation, which explored the mechanism of grain growth in the oscillating joints and provided new ideas for the welding of 2xx aluminum alloys.
