The invention discloses a
laser hybrid welding method for
butt joint of plates with different thicknesses, which comprises the following steps of: preheating base metals and / or reducing the gap between the base metals by moving along the length direction of the gap between the base metals under the guidance of a TIG (
Tungsten Inert Gas)
welding gun, and
welding the base metals of which the gap is reduced by moving a
laser welding head along the length direction of the gap, meanwhile, the MAG welding gun moves in the length direction of the gap to weld the
base metal subjected to
laser welding, the gradient of the connecting position of the plates with the different thicknesses is reduced, in the moving process of the laser welding head, two
servo motors in the laser welding head drive two reflectors to swing to change the propagation path of laser, and the laser welding is completed. And the laser swings on the two sides of the gap between the to-be-welded
base metal in a reciprocating mode, the power of the laser is changed according to the plate thickness of the
base metal, and the swing amplitude of the laser is determined according to the width of the gap. The gradient
power mode enables the
weld penetration depth to be more uniform, heat input to be smaller, laser power to be changed, and the problems of incomplete fusion, incomplete penetration or burn-through in the prior art are solved.
