Abstract

The invention relates to a laser welding method capable of avoiding slag inclusion and improving laser absorptivity of an aluminum alloy. The method comprises the following steps of: removing a compact oxide film from the surface of the aluminum alloy, forming a porous film with the thickness of several micrometers by an anodic oxidation method, dyeing to improve the laser absorptivity, coating a solvent capable of removing the oxide film during welding on a part to be welded before welding, and performing laser welding. The porous film is obtained by performing anodic oxidation on phosphoric acid and is essentially different from the naturally formed compact oxide film, namely laser absorption efficiency can be improved due to pores in the porous film, the porous film can be effectively dyed in a short time, and a dark thin film is obtained; and in addition, after reverse polarization is performed, the bonding strength of the anodic oxide film and a substrate is greatly reduced, the oxide film is conveniently peeled from a pool under the action of the solvent for removing the oxide film during welding, and the phenomenon that the oxide film enters the pool to form slag inclusion is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a laser welding method for aluminum alloy, belonging to the technical field of laser welding. Background technique [0002] Laser welding is a new type of welding technology developed in recent decades. It has the advantages of less heat input, concentrated energy density, small deformation of the heat-affected zone, and greater penetration depth. Especially when combined with robots, it can give full play to With the advantages of high welding efficiency, laser welding has more and more applications in industrial production. However, there are also many shortcomings and problems in the process of laser welding of aluminum alloys. The most serious problem is that due to the high initial reflectivity of aluminum and aluminum alloys to laser light, the welding process is unstable during laser welding. Due to the high reflectivity, most of the energy is reflected and cannot be absorbed by the aluminum substrate. Typical aluminum...
