Abstract

This paper deals with experimental and theoretical analyses of butt welding of 1.55 mm thick Al1050A alloy using a 1kW pulsed Nd:YAG laser, and butt weld joints are investigated for tensile strength and microhardness; then discusses effects of some main normalized welding parameters on surface quality of weld seams and penetration depth.
