Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of laser welding, in particular to a stainless steel pipe laser welding device and method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The original stainless steel pipe material is open at both ends, which requires us to perform precise welding operation on one end before packaging. The working principle of the laser welding device is based on laser welding technology. By focusing the laser beam through the focusing mirror to a small spot, an extremely high energy density is generated, which is sufficient to rapidly melt the welded material in a small area. Then, the molten metal solidifies during the cooling process to form a firm welded joint.
[0003] However, the current mainstream processing method still relies on manual operation, that is, the open stainless steel pipe is taken out one by one and placed on the designated welding device for initial welding. This highly dependent process not only has a low degree of automation, which significantly restricts the processing efficiency of the stainless steel pipe, but also easily causes thermal stress deformation during the welding process due to the high temperature environment required, which may even lead to changes in the metal organizational structure of the heat-affected zone and degradation of overall performance.
