A dual-wire hybrid welding system includes a hybrid welding apparatus having laser, electric arc welder and second wire feeding device. Electric arc welder includes first wire feeding device for feeding first wire. Second wire feeding device is arranged and disposed to feed a second wire to electric arc welder. Laser and electric arc welder are arranged and disposed to direct energy toward at least two adjacent components along a joint and first wire is a consumable electrode fed into joint to establish molten pool generated by both laser and arc welder with first wire. Second wire is fed to molten pool to form a common molten pool. Common molten pool is operable to provide a full penetration weld with less total heat input to join the at least two adjacent components without cracking the components at a high constant weld speed.

摘要:
A method of welding alloys having a ductility drop temperature range to limit strain-age cracking. The method involves the use of a welding device to weld a weld area of an article while maintaining temperatures throughout the weld area and a heat affected zone adjacent the weld area within a non-crack sensitive temperature range that is above a ductility drop temperature range of the alloy being welded. During welding, the temperatures of the weld area and the heat affected zone are predominantly controlled with heat input from the welding device. Once the welding has been terminated, the weld area and the heat affected zone are cooled from the non-crack sensitive temperature range through the ductility drop temperature range to a temperature below the ductility drop temperature range of the alloy.
