Abstract

As weld pool geometry and thermomechanical strains are known to affect formation of solidification cracks, the influence of a superimposed beam oscillation on these characteristics is investigated for this paper. In this context the effects of the oscillation frequency and focal diameter on the weld pool and temperature field are determined by means of infrared thermography. As a result an increase of the weld pool size for larger focal diameters and a more even shape of the seam edges for higher frequencies can be identified.
