Laser hybrid welding of tailored tubes with integrated quality analysis and closed loop process control

Objective

Tailored blanks and tubes are increasingly being used in automotive lightweight construction. Hybrid welding techniques are more and more applied to improve the laser welding speed when producing tailored blanks and tubes. Cost- effective methods, e.g. MIG, TIG or plasma welding in combination with laser welding, allow a comparatively high joining speed with insignificantly higher investment costs. The benefits expected from the research are the following: a better understanding of the laser/MIG hybrid welding process and of the integrated quality assurance and process control at hybrid welding; a deeper knowledge about the mechanical seam properties and forming properties of hybrid welded steels and, finally, their corrosion and painting behaviour.
