ESTIMATION DEPTH FOR STAINLESS STEEL OF LASER SPOT WELDING
Abstract: Penetration depth is
one of the most important factors to the quality of a laser weld. In this
investigation, two calculations are used to estimate the penetration depth for
Stainless Steel 304L of laser spot welding. At laser power of
3500W, the calculations
produce 0.0225m and
0.0226m penetration respectively. The power distribution into the
material is given by the modified first order of Bessel function. The
transmitted power will decrease according to the function, as the power
penetrates the material. At the depth of 0.0226m and 0.0225, the power is given
3.9770W and 4.0981 respectively
