Building ultra-thin Inconel 718 sheet joints using low-frequency PLBW scheme: Weld bead quality, keyhole dynamics, and solidification characteristics

Low-frequency pulsed laser beam welding (PLBW) was employed in building 0.32 mm-thick Inconel 718 superalloy butt joints which are frequently applied in manufacturing high-temperature functional units in the aviation industry. Several process parameter combinations concerning peak laser power, weldi...
