Problems solved by technology

Since the preheating laser beam is on the back of the welding area, the temperature on the back of the material to be welded will be higher than the temperature on the front, and friction stir welding is a kind of pressure welding, and the back of the weld seam needs rigid support, so the heat required for friction stir welding still requires a stirring head Friction with the base metal is generated, so the stirring head is expensive and has a very short life; when welding dissimilar materials, intermetallic compounds are easily generated, which needs to be solved by weld alloying, which cannot be realized by ordinary friction stir welding and this patented technology; at the same time, laser The equipment is expensive, which is not conducive to batch and large-scale application

Abstract

The invention discloses an FSW (Friction-stir Welding) method assisted by a heat source. The method comprises the following steps of: A, splicing and fixing to-be-welded materials, preheating to-be-welded regions by an auxiliary heat source until the welded materials are in a plasticized or alloyed state; and B, enabling the auxiliary heat source and a friction-stir head to be positioned on same pair of butt welding wires, and after the welded materials are heated to be in the plasticized state, enabling the friction-stir head to advance along the heating path of the auxiliary heat source so as to perform friction welding. The invention provides a composite welding method which is reasonable in cost, long in service life of stir head, capable of realizing high high-melting-point metal and dissimilar metal welding speed, and high in welding quality. According to the welding method, the service life problem of the stir head of high-melting-point metal FSW and the problem of dissimilar metal FSW welded seam alloying are successfully solved, the welding cost of the high-melting-point metal and the welding cost of the dissimilar metal are greatly lowered and the welding quality is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of welding technology, in particular to a heat source assisted friction stir welding method. Background technique [0002] Since the friction stir welding is a solid-phase welding method that uses the high-speed rotating stirring head and the shaft shoulder to be in a plastic state with the metal. As the stirring head advances, the metal moves to the rear of the stirring head to form a solid-phase welding method. The high-temperature strength, hardness, and toughness requirements of the stirring head are extremely strict, and currently it is only used in the welding of non-ferrous metals such as Al, Cu and other low-melting point metals. Due to the high melting point of high melting point metals, it is difficult to make the material to be welded reach a plastic state only by the friction between the stirring head and the base metal. During the friction stir welding process of dissimilar metal materials, intermetallic ...
