MATLAB Image Treatment of Copper-Steel Laser Welding

الملخص EN

Continuous Yb:YAG laser keyhole welding of the pure copper plate to steel 316L sheet is performed for different laser parameters.

The laser-generated welding keyhole and weld melted zone are observed by a high-speed camera.

The image is treated by MATLAB and simple code is built to calculate the keyhole and melted zone area.

This treatment is validated by the actual welding measurements, and the accuracy of the measurements is tested by the confidence interval law.

The images obtained of keyhole and melt zone area in dissimilar laser welding are treated and analyzed to study the effect of changing the laser parameters.
