    Laser and TIG welding of additive manufactured Ti-6Al-4V parts
    (2022-05-01) KURT, MUSTAFA; ŞEN, MURAT; ŞEN M., KURT M.
    Electron beam melting (EBM) is a powder bed additive manufacturing (AM) technology for small and medium-sized Ti-6Al-4V components. In this study, EBM-built Ti-6Al-4V tensile specimens were joined using tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding and laser beam welding (LBW) to form large-scale components. Weld morphology, defects, mechanical properties, and microstructure of joints made by LBW and TIG welding were compared. It was found that the pore sensitivity of EBMed Ti-6Al-4V is extremely high. In EBM, the most common defect is pores, but this has been ignored as parts are broken at welding zone. Large pores are distributed along the edge of the weld in TIG welding, whereas in laser welding they are distributed at top of the weld. LBW has a much smaller grain size in the weld center than TIG welding. The TIG welded sample has more heat at the weld boundary. Mechanical properties of TIG welded parts were superior to laser welded parts. The main reason for this is that the weld cross section is larger than the center. In addition, in the microstructure examination of TIG welding, it was observed that the weld had fewer defects than laser welding. Also, the elongation of all specimens is very low.

    Comparison between laser and TIG welding of electron beam melted Ti6Al4V parts
    (2023-01-01) ŞEN, MURAT; KURT, MUSTAFA; ŞEN M., KURT M.
    A large number of metal parts specific to the aviation, energy, and biomedical industries are produced by the electron beam melting (EBM) method, which is one of the powder bed additive manufacturing techniques. The limited build volume of EBM machines does not allow the production of parts in the desired dimensions. One way to overcome this limitation is to weld small size additive manufactured parts. In this study, EBMed Ti6Al4V tensile specimens were joined by laser (LBW) and tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding. Welding morphologies, microstructures, and mechanical properties of joints were investigated. The main defects in the samples are pore formation and insufficient penetration. The weld zones of TIG samples contain a higher amount of pores than laser samples, and these pores are distributed over the entire area of the weld. The pores are less than 200 » μm in diameter. TIG welded samples exhibited higher mechanical properties than laser welded samples. The highest microhardness was measured in the weld zone. Microhardness of laser welded samples are higher than TIG welded samples. While the welding regions of TIG welded samples consist of coarse and acicular α and α + β structures, laser welded samples consist of thin and acicular α′ structure.

    Effects of process parameters on the formability of sheet metal during plastic injection forming
    (CARL HANSER VERLAG, 2020) ŞEN, MURAT; Sen, Murat; Sener, Bora; Altan, Mirigul
    Plastic injection forming (PIF) is an alternative sheet metal forming method for complex geometrical parts with dimensions in low tolerance. This method is a combination of injection molding and hydroforming in which a molten polymer material has been injected over a sheet metal via a plastic injection molding machine. In this study, aluminum sheets 1.5 mm thick were shaped by PIF at various injection pressures, melt temperatures and injection speed. The effects of these parameters on the formability of the sheet metal. were investigated using the experimental design technique. The thinning rate, flange radius and the hardness values of the shaped sheets were considered in the experimental study. Injection pressure was found to be the most effective parameter and melt temperature was the second degree effective parameter for the thinning rate. The usability of the PIF process in industrial applications as an alternative method was emphasized by comparing PIF with conventional hydroforming by means of the finite element method (Ls-Dyna). A 2.07 % deviation was observed between the FE results for hydroforming and the experimental results for PIF.
