Investigation on laser welding of Ti-6Al-4V plates in corner joint

The article deals with laser beam welding of Ti-6Al-4V plates for aerospace applications. A number of trials are conducted to weld 3-mm-thick plates in corner joint configuration; a specific device for clamping and shielding to prevent oxidation is used. Autogenous welding is investigated, the joint...
