The application of laser technology to welding of dissimilar AISI316 stainless steel components manufactured with selective laser melting (SLM) and traditional methods has been investigated. The role of laser parameters on weld bead formation has been studied experimentally, with particular attention placed on effects occurring at the interface between the two parts. In order to assess weld bead characteristics, standardised tensile tests were carried out on suitable specimens and the fracture zone was analysed. The results highlighted the possibility of exploiting suitable process parameters to appropriately shape the heat affected and fusion zones in order to maximise the mechanical performance of the component and minimise interactions between the two parent metals in the weld bead.

Abstract
The application of laser technology to welding of dissimilar AISI316 stainless steel components manufactured with selective laser melting (SLM) and traditional methods has been investigated. The role of laser parameters on weld bead formation has been studied experimentally, with particular attention placed on effects occurring at the interface between the two parts. In order to assess weld bead characteristics, standardised tensile tests were carried out on suitable specimens and the fracture zone was analysed. The results highlighted the possibility of exploiting suitable process parameters to appropriately shape the heat affected and fusion zones in order to maximise the mechanical performance of the component and minimise interactions between the two parent metals in the weld bead.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
