Abstract
In order to provide an efficient lap joining process, high-power laser welding of thick steel plates (S355, t = 5Â mm) and aluminum plates (EN AW-6082, t = 8Â mm) is investigated. As the weld seam quality greatly depends on the amount of intermetallic phases within the joint, optimized process parameters and control are crucial. Using high-power laser welding, a tensile strength of 10Â kN was achieved. Based on metallographic analysis, hardness tests, and tensile tests the potential of this joining method is presented.
