Selected Aspects of Modern Welding Methods for Steel Components

<ns3:p>The growing demand for manufacturing steel components in the manufacturing industry is forcing the rapid development of metal welding technology. One of the modern welding techniques is the joining of components using laser welding, where the material is joined using a focused laser beam. This method makes it possible to achieve high process efficiency, while maintaining cleanliness in the welding area and high-quality welded joints. In the conducted research, the laser beam welding method (method 52) was compared with the conventional TIG welding method (method 141), to compare the welding time, the effect of temperature in the HAZ after welding and the quality of the resulting welds.</ns3:p>
