In order for manufacturing companies to remain competitive it Is necessary for them to review continually their fabrication methods. The use of power beams for welding and cutting offer significant opportunities for industry to improve its product quality and increase profitability. This paper discusses a number of current industrial applications for electron beam and laser welding.

The effects of ageing treatment on the mechanical properties of two Cu-bearing HSLA(High Strength Low Alloy) steels, HSLA-A and HSLA-B ,were studied by means of SEM, TEM, tensile, charpy impact and hardness tests. These steels showed excellent combination in strength and toughness at an ageing of
$650^{\circ}C$ by the precipitation of$\varepsilon$ -Cu and low carbon alloying. The peak strength was achieved at an ageing of 50$0^{\circ}C$ in both steels, while the impact energy was very low in this peak strength. With ageing temperature above this temperature, strength was decreased whereas impact energy increased. A marked increase in hardness above 675$^{\circ}C$ was associated with the formation of “M-A constituents” which forms during cooling from austenite-ferrite two phase region. The impact transition temperature of HSLA-A and HSLA-B steels were -l$25^{\circ}C$ and -145$^{\circ}C$ , respectively. -
The ageing behavior of Cu-bearing HSLA steels was studied by using Differential scanning calorimetry(DSC), Transmission electron microscopy and hardness tester. Two heat evolution peaks were observed during DSC scans over the temperature range of 25~590
$^{\circ}C$ at a heating rate of 5$^{\circ}C$ /min. The peaks appeared in low (241∼319$^{\circ}C$ : HSLA-A, 224∼310$^{\circ}C$ : HSLA-B) and high temperature (514∼590$^{\circ}C$ : HSLA-A, 451∼558$^{\circ}C$ : HSLA-B) are attributed to the formation of coherent Cu-clusters and noncoherent$\varepsilon$ -Cu phase, respectively. It was confirmed that as ageing proceeds, the coherent bcc Cu-clusters transform to noncoherent fcc$\varepsilon$ -Cu phase. In the case of the ageing to peak hardness at 300$^{\circ}C$ and 400$^{\circ}C$ , the coherent Cu-clusters contributed to the hardening. As ageing time and temperature increase over peak hardness, noncoherent$\varepsilon$ -Cu are formed and hardness decreases. -

Characteristics of laterally bonded tri-metal sheets (stainless steel/Invar/stainless steel) fabricated by laser beam welding are compared to those of samples by Imphy and Hitachi Co-operations. Residual stess of tri-metal is calculated by using of the hole-drilling stain gauge method. The aging effect of stainless steel strip on welding is also discussed. In addition to, a numerical approach for laser beam welding is tried. Finally, laser beam welding system of tri-metal can be designed on th basis of experimental and theoretical results.

The weldability of aluminum is excel lent but weld metal is subject to include weld defects such as porosities, crack, incomplete penetration and incomplete fusion because of improper welding parameters. Especially, the porosities are main weld defects because the difference of hydrogen solubility change in melt ins and solidification state with temperature changing. Deformation of aluminum is larger than mi Id steel due to higher thermal conductivity. It is reported that porosities in deposited metal affect tensile strength and elongation. Therefore, the effect of groove angle on porosities and mechanical properties of weld metal were researched in this report where Al-5083 plate was used with 5356 filler metal that are excellent anti corrosion and strength.
