Problems solved by technology

[0003] As a fusion welding process, the biggest problem faced by laser welding is the thermal deformation caused by heat input, which seriously affects the assembly accuracy of components and the overall performance of the structure, especially the fatigue performance, although its heat input and thermal influence are much smaller than traditional resistance Welding and Arc Welding Processes
Studies that have been carried out have shown that under laser welding conditions, the control of welding thermal deformation is often difficult
Traditional post-weld residual stress relief methods and orthopedic methods (such as hammering, mechanical vibration, post-weld slow cooling (aging method), heat treatment, etc.) are time-consuming and labor-intensive, and are difficult to operate offline welding stress relief methods, and the effect is not good

Abstract

The invention discloses a pulsed high magnetic field auxiliary laser welding method and device. The method and device can be applied to laser spot welding and seam welding. According to the method, in the overall welding process, laser beams are emitted to a workpiece to form a welding connector, a high pulsed magnetic field is exerted to the welding connector which is just solidified and the surrounding area, the pulsed magnetic field generates pressure stress on the surface of the workpiece to enable the connector area to have plastic deformation, residual stress is released to lower the degree of stress concentration and the degree of structural deformation of the welding connector, and the fatigue strength of the welding connector is improved. The device comprises a laser, a pulsed magnetic field generator, a numerical control system, an optical transmission system and a laser pulsed magnetic field composite processing head. The processing head is used for integrating the laser beams and the high pulsed magnetic field, and regulating the perpendicular distance between an electromagnetic conversion device and the surface of the workpiece and the horizontal distance between the electromagnetic conversion device and the laser beams. By means of the pulsed high magnetic field auxiliary laser welding method and device, structural deformation can be lowered, welding quality and processing efficiency are improved, and the processing effect which is superior to that of an existing laser welding process is achieved.
