Abstract
A study of weld joints of nonferrous, Nickel 201 alloy sheets using a new generation disk laser as the green welding technology for effective manufacturing was carried out, and the results are presented in this paper. Weld joints of the Nickel 201 sheets 2.0 mm thick were welded by laser without an additional material at a flat position, using high purity argon as the shielding gas. The influence of laser welding parameters on weld quality and mechanical properties of test joints was studied. The influence of welding speed and laser power to the joint quality was investigated. The study of quality and mechanical properties of the joints were determined by metallographic evaluation, tensile and hardness tests.
