The effect of process parameters of the fiber laser and MAG arc hybrid welding on weld bead formation of 12 mm thickness SM490 has been studied. In order to evaluate a relationship between the parameters and weld characteristics, groove angle, gap width, arc current and distance of the two heat sources were changed. Sound beads without spatter and porosity could be achieved by the hybrid welding.

In laser-MIG arc hybrid welding of aluminum alloy, at which a laser beam was directly irradiated on wire surface, the effect of laser parameters on wire melting characteristics of A4043 wire was discussed by comparing with A5356 wire. It was found that A4043 wire was more difficult to be evaporated by laser irradiation than A5356 did because of the fact that there was only Si in A4043 wire.

The weldability of thixo-molded Mg alloy sheets welded by using a new Fiber Laser Welding (FBLW) with different welding parameters was studied. The experimental results show that the magnesium alloys can get better welding appearance at higher welding speed (6 or 10 m/min) with 5kw laser power. Quantities of porosity defect occurred in the fusion zone, and the defect decreased with increasing the welding speed, together with narrower width of fusion zone. Furthermore, N2 is the major gas in the porosity both in the base metals and in the weld metals, while AE42 alloy includes higher content of H2 in the weld metal than AS41 alloy, which is proportional to the content in the base metal. The presence of gas inclusion in the base metal is the main factor contributing to the formation of porosity.

Some studies on the friction stir welding of high temperature materials have recently been reported, although their practical use has not yet occurred due to some problems to be solved such as decreases in the corrosion resistance and joint efficiency during a high-speed joining. The purpose of this study is to clarify the effect of the welding speed on the joint efficiency. As a result, it has been clarified that at a rotational speed of 600 rpm, the friction stir welding of 304 austenitic stainless steel is possible without any defects up to the joining speed of 1200mm/min, and the tensile strength of the joint exceeds that of the parent material up to the joining speed of 1000mm/min. In addition, the corrosion resistance is significantly improved at the higher welding speeds.
Thus, an increase in the welding speed can improve productivity and the product quality by decreasing corroded region. These results are expected to extend to an actual application to products by further improving the technology.

AC4C aluminum alloy and zinc-coated steel were friction stir lap welded, and the effect of insert depth of tool on microstructure and mechanical properties of the joints were investigated. Experimental results show that the insert depth of tool has a significant effect on mechanical properties of joints. For normal insert joints (the probe of tool does not touch the surface of steel), the joints fracture at the interface. For deep insert joints (the probe is inserted into the steel), the joints fracture at the steel base material side and the failure load is equal to that of steel base metal. The change of fracture location is attributed to the disappearance of the heavy lamellar intermetallic compounds (IMC) layer at the joining interface by the stir behavior of tool. The effect of insert depth of tool on the morphology and distribution of IMC layer was discussed.

We investigated the material flow by measuring the three-dimensional forces acting on the weld joint and the temperature of weld interface during welding. We also observed the material flow by X-ray CT technique. From these results, we evaluated material flow in the dissimilar metal welding by friction stirring.

The weldability of thixo-molded AS41 Mg alloy sheets welded by using Friction Stir Welding (FSW) under different welding conditions was studied. The appropriate FSW condition range of several kinds of Mg alloys is given, and it seems that the appropriate FSW condition range increases with decreasing the Al content in the Mg alloys. Grains of base metal have been deformed greatly after friction stirring, and the hardness of SZ is higher than that of base metal. The tensile strength and elongation of all-SZ specimen of AS41 alloy increased with decreasing the welding speed and increasing the rotation speed.
