Abstract:
© Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. Laser welding features of compacted graphite iron are described in this paper. An approach that allows to reduce residual stresses and the probability of occurrence of "hot" cracks in the weld seam as well as to increase the absorption coefficient of laser radiation due to the use of metal powder Ni-Cr-B-Si-Fe, BoroTec-Eutalloy® 10009-chromium-nickel alloy are proposed. Recommendations are given when conducting a welding with compacted graphite iron.
