A Critical Assessment of Inconel 625 Laser Welding For Technological AdvancementsA Comprehensive Review of Traditional Welding and Laser Beam Welding Techniques for Inconel 800

This study focuses on a comprehensive review of traditional welding and laser welding techniques for Inconel 800.A direct comparison of laser beam welding and traditional welding for Inconel 800 reveals a number of significant differences.LBW offers significant advantages in terms of welding speed and reduced heat-affected zones (HAZ) width, leading to better control over the microstructure and improved mechanical properties.The high precision and automation capabilities of LBW are particularly advantageous in high-volume manufacturing.However, traditional methods might be more cost-effective for low-volume applications or situations where complex joint geometries are difficult to manage with a laser.Inconel 800, an iron-nickel-chromium based super alloy also known for high-temperature strength and corrosion resistance, is used in extreme conditions.The choice between LBW and traditional techniques is dependent on specific application requirements and constraints, weighing the benefits of speed and precision against cost and potential process limitations.Based on the needs of our industrial application, laser beam welding is a more practical way to create high quality joints than other traditional welding techniques.
