Abstract. The article presents the results of investigation the technological opportunity of
laser-TIG welding of titanium alloys. The experimental stand for implementation of process
with the capability to feed a filler wire was made. The research of the nature of transfer the
filler wire into the welding pool has been demonstrated. The influence of distance between the
electrode and the surface of the welded plates on the stability of the arc was shown. The
relationship between welding velocity, the position of focal plane of the laser beam and the
stability of penetration of plates was determined.

1. Introduction
Titanium and its alloys are indispensable construction materials because they have unique physical
properties: high specific strength comparable to steel. However, they have a density in two times less
than steels. The titanium alloys have a high melting point and corrosion resistance in aggressive
chemical environments, atmosphere and water.
Technology of welding titanium has the distinctive features. The titanium interacts actively with
atmospheric gases, such as oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen during the heating more than 3500C; because
of this, the mechanical properties of joint weld significantly decrease. Titanium alloys are sensitive to
thermal cycle due to a heavy increase of grains during heating and cooling in the area of β phase.
Therefore, the welding should be done in the atmosphere of inert gas with minimum heat input. For
the formation of joint weld from titanium and its alloys in the world practice using various welding
methods: TIG welding, friction welding, electron beam welding. However, each of these methods has
its own significant imperfection. TIG welding have a low productivity. The friction welding has a
narrow field of application, as the dimensions of the welding parts are limited. The electron beam
welding has a limitation on the overall dimensions of the weld workpieces and it is a labour intensive
process due to there is the necessity of creating a vacuum in the working chamber. The welding of
titanium by laser radiation is the most promising. Analysis of the articles of other researchers revealed
a wide range of researches in this direction. There are researches with using of laser radiation of solid-
state laser in a pulse mode [1], with the aim of reducing residual welding deformations, and in
continuous mode for welding thick sheets of titanium (16mm) [2]. In addition, there are researches
with using of laser radiation of CO2 laser. Separate work are devoted to the description of results of the
research of laser welding with filler wire [3, 4], other about laser welding of titanium sheets overlap

welding), high welding speed, high depth of penetration, the capability of welding with gap, and the
capability of varying the chemical composition of the weld metal [6-8].
The aim of this work was to evaluate the technological opportunity of laser-TIG welding (LTW) of
titanium alloys Ti-1.5Al-1.0Mn and Ti-6Al-4V with a thickness of 5 mm.
Researches in this area are mainly represented with using of electron-beam welding, but also there
is the interest to the use of laser welding by a CO2 laser [9, 10] or solid-state laser [11].
The influence of the parameters of LTW on the formation of the joint weld was investigated during
research; also, the analysis of the microstructure and mechanical properties of joint weld was
produced.

2. The experimental researches


2.1. Welding equipment
The experimental researches of laser -TIG welding have been carried out with using a laser-arc
technological complex with fiber ytterbium laser LS-5 (IPG). It works in continuous mode and has
wavelength of radiation of 1070 nm and maximum output power of 5 kW.
The laser beam has been focused with a focal length of 300 mm in a spot with a diameter of 200
microns. The TIG welding source AC/DC TRITON 220 AC/DC Power Sinus (EWM) with the
maximum welding current and floating voltage 220A and 45V, respectively, has been used as arc
source. The feeder PDGO-601 («ITW») got the filler wire.
2.2. Welding materials
Plates from titanium alloys grade Ti-1.5Al-1.0Mn и Ti-6Al-4V with dimensions 200х400х5 mm
were used in the experiments. The welding wire Ti-1.5Al-1.0Mn with a diameter of 1.6 mm has been
used as the filler wire.

3.1 Melting of a filler wire


During the LTW process filler wire was applied along the seam from the side of the arc at the
smallest possible angle relative to the surface plate 10-150, figure 1.

Figure 2 – Transferring of filler material in the welding pool: laser output power (PL) - 5kW,
velocity of LTW (Vweld) - 0.9 m/min, current of arc (I) - 140A, arc voltage (Uarc) to 18V, filler wire
feed speed (Vwire) - 1.1 m/min; the distance from the end of the electrode to the surface of the sheet (h)
- 3 mm.

As can be seen from figure 2, the process of melting the filler wire can be divided into several
stages. The heating of wire in front of by the arc and melting with the formation at the expense of
forces of surface tension of a spherical droplet at its end is shown in figure 2a. The growth of a
spherical droplet due to the melting of new portions of the filler wire and hold it on the end of the wire
due to the forces of surface tension are shown in figure 2b. The amount of molten metal filler wire and
the mass of droplet increase and due to the action of gravity, the drop changes its shape (figure 2c).
The drop is stretched out (figure 2d) and is separated from the end of filler wire and flowing into the
welding pool (figure 2e) when it approaches to the weld pool and increasing the pressure of the arc on
the surface.
The cyclical nature of this process provides a uniform transfer of molten filler metal to the welding
pool. The melting of the filler wire by arc component of LTW helps to use of costly laser radiation on
the penetration of the plates. Arc also provides pre-heating of the plates, increasing their absorption of
laser radiation.

3.2. The influence of the distance between the electrode and the surface of the welded plates on the
stability of arcing
LTW has been carried with the distance between the electrode and the surface of the plates in the
range from 2 to 3 mm. It helps to determine the optimal location of the electrode. The process of LTW

According to the results of experimental studies of the nature of melting of filler wire (figure 2) the
melt droplet during its growth increases in volume with keeping a spherical shape. At some point of
time the diameter of the spherical drop is increased to 2 mm, sufficient for the circuits of the arc gap
(figure 3a). At the time of short circuit the arc goes out. The shape of drops changes because size of
drops, its mass increase, and the pressure of arc on the surface also increase. Thus, the melt droplet at
the end of filler wire has not time to reach a diameter of 3 mm and flows into the molten pool via the
mechanism described in the previous section (figure 3b), because of this, a short circuit is not formed,
and the arc burns steadily.

3.3. The influence of welding speed on the formation of a welded joint


The investigation of the influence of speed of LTW on the formation of a joint weld has been
performed in the range of 0.72 to 1.5 m/min. The electrode was positioned at a 300 angle from the
vertical. The distance between the axis of the laser radiation and the electrode on the surface of the
plates was 3 mm. LTW has been carried without filler wire and without the protection of the weld
root. The top side of the welding pool and the weld metal were protected by argon with flow rate of 30
l/min. The welding has been carried out at the following mode settings: laser power: 5 kW, embedding
of the focal plane of laser beam is 1 mm, the power arc current: 160A, arc voltage: 18V. The
appearance of the result of the experiment with stable full-penetration of plates are presented in figure
4.

The results of welding performed at high speeds and, consequently, low heat input had not
stable full penetration. The joint weld formed at a velocity of 0.72 m/min and the maximum welding
heat input had the highest stability of full penetration. The results of this study it was decided to
perform further experiments of LTW at a welding velocity of 0.72 m/min.

the upper layers of the plate.

3.1. The microstructure of the joint weld


The titanium alloys investigated in this work belong to different groups: Ti-1.5Al-1.0Mn - pseudo-
α alloy containing β phase and Ti-6Al-4V – the alloy of the martensitic type, similar to the pseudo α
alloy.
The alloys Ti-1.5Al-1.0Mn and Ti-6Al-4V have been welded between each other with application
of welding wire with a chemical composition corresponding to Ti-1.5Al-1.0Mn and the resulting
structure of the weld metal composed of martensite α’ – phase.
Three characteristic areas were found in the HAZ of the joint weld:
the area with big size of grains (overheating), where the temperature varies from the melting
temperature to 1300°C;
the area with full recrystallization, where upon cooling, the structures are similar to those that occur
at the area with big size of grains;
the area of incomplete recrystallization (figure 7).

GOST 1497-84 "Methods of tensile tests". According to test results, the value of temporary resistance
ranged from 653 to 661 MPa, and the fracture of specimen occurred in the base metal. This proves that

investigated. The melting of it in front of the weld pool by arc with a uniform drop transport
mechanism has been detected. The minimal distance between the end electrode and the surface of the
welded plates, providing steady-state combustion of arc is 3 mm. The devices providing reliable
protection of the molten metal and metal heated over a temperature of 3500C, from the atmosphere
have been made. The relationship between welding velocity, the position of focal plane of the laser
beam and the stability of penetration of plates was determined.

... Thus, when the laser-arc hybrid welding was introduced, it attracted much attention
from researchers in titanium alloy manufacturing. Truichin G. suggested that the
technology of 5 KW laser-TIG welding with ller wire of titanium alloys with a thickness of
5 mm has been developed [14] . By studying the 1.5 KW laser-TIG hybrid welding process
of thick plate, Zhang reported that a satisfactory weld can be obtained and the tension of
the weld is higher than that of the TA15 alloy [15]. ...
