Study of properties of laser welds of Hardox 450 material using arc preheating
Debs, Martin ; Kubíček, Jaroslav (referee) ; Mrňa, Libor (advisor)
In this thesis is studied the influence of arc TIG preheating during laser welding of 2 mm Hardox 450 material sheets. This material achieves its good mechanical properties by processes of heat treatment. That causes problems during welding because of heat degradation. Experimental sheets were welded within various configurations of welding parameters and positions of TIG nozzle. Testing specimens were cut out by laser and were used for tension testing, Vickers hardness testing and metallographical testing (macro and microstructure). The results of using the second heat source are: wider heat affected zone, smoother transitions among its zones, reduction of toughness and hardness, finer grain structure and occurring ferritic microstructure. This hybrid technology, combination of laser welding and TIG preheating, is very productive creating joints with greatly good quality. The thesis also contains a comparison with common MAG welding method.

Welding of the framework from aluminium alloys
Rašek, Ondřej ; Daněk, Ladislav (referee) ; Kubíček, Jaroslav (advisor)
For TIG welding of transformer fame is important enough weld root fusion, however exposed surfaces must remain unaffected. Three types of test were made to determine properties of welds under different conditions. Tests were macroscopic inspection, tensile test and fracture test. Next was economic evaluation of different methods. Best results were for single layer weld with pre-heated material.

Use of the preheating by electric arc during laser welding of steels with higher carbon content
Mach, Martin ; Sigmund, Marian (referee) ; Mrňa, Libor (advisor)
The thesis is focused on the study of the use of electric arc preheating, in this case source WIG, during laser welding of steel with a higher carbon content, specifically for this work steel 1.1191 thickness 2 mm. Based on the calculation of the carbon equivalent, the preheating was determined to 208 °C. The welding parameters were selected on the basis of the first experiments. In the experimental section, the samples were welded with laser with preheating using a source WIG, which were then made to a tensile test, Vickers microhardness, macrostructure and microstructure. By using a second heat source, the heat-affected area of the samples was expanded. Samples that cracked in the middle of the weld during the tensile test were heat influenced by cutting samples. The remaining samples was broken in the base material, thus the weld produced was of good quality. Combination of laser welding with WIG electric arc preheating is a very productive method over conventional methods and one of the few pre-heating solutions for laser welding. These are the initial experiments for the use of the WIG arc for preheating in laser welding, to be followed by further research, mainly for the automotive industry.

Welding of 22MnB5 steel using Laser-TIG hybrid technology
Krejčí, Adam ; Sigmund, Marian (referee) ; Mrňa, Libor (advisor)
This thesis deals with usage of hybrid technology Laser-TIG for welding of boron enhanced steel 22MnB5. This thesis evaluates the influence of preheating using technology of TIG arc welding to a weld quality in comparison with laser welds. In practical part of thesis there were 1,8 mm metal sheets of 22MnB5 welded. This metal sheet specimens were welded by using constant parameters of laser with varying parameters of TIG technology. There were 12 specimens of sheet metal created including 3 specimens using only laser and 9 specimens using Laser-TIG hybrid technology while varying magnitude of current (I=20 A, 40 A a 60 A). Welds created this way were evaluated by tensile test and strength limits compared. Then metalografic survey was carried out examining macro and microstructure. Results of metalografic survey were confronted with Vickers hardness test.

Use of laser-TIG hybrid technology for welding of different materials used in power engineering
Žák, Tomáš ; Beran, David (referee) ; Mrňa, Libor (advisor)
Thesis is focused on analyzing the influence of preheating process parameters using electric arc from TIG torch during laser welding on weld properties of stainless steel and carbon steel with higher strength. In this thesis experiment was done in which metal sheets 3 mm thick from X12Cr13 and S355 steels were welded. Welding was done first with using only laser, then laser with TIG preheating and lastly laser with preheated material by induction heater. When TIG preheating was used than set welding current was changed on the power source. The welds were subsequently evaluated based on macrostructure, microstructure and Vickers hardness test.

Bypass steam turbine system
Molák, Filip ; Kracík, Petr (referee) ; Fiedler, Jan (advisor)
The master’s thesis deals with the bypass system of steam turbine, especially about its heating during normal operation and cold start up. At the beginning of work, a preliminary thermodynamic calculation of condensing steam turbine with two uncontrolled extractions is made. This is followed by theoretical description and design of bypass system and design of heating during normal operation and cold start-up. The main goal of thesis is optimalization of heating, when the heating branch is connected back to turbine supply line. In the end, all options of heating are compared in terms of power output.

Use of laser-TIG hybrid technology for boron-doped high-strength steels
Kachlíř, Jaromír ; Šebestová, Hana (referee) ; Mrňa, Libor (advisor)
This thesis deals with the usage of arc preheating for welding high strength boron enhanced steel 22MnB5 using hybrid technology known as laserTIG and also its impact on the final weld compared to welds welded by only the laser or the arc method. During the experiment I welded five sheets of the above mentioned steel 1,3 or 1,9 milimeters wide. Except for the welds fabricated by the laser and the TIG method was the only variable the electric current of the arc (I = 20, 40, or 60 A). Welds welded this way were compared based on strength limits measured by the tensile tests. Additionally were they compared according to the metalographic survey and the progress of weld hardness, calculated using the Vickers hardness test.

Processing of metallic materials by Selective Laser Melting at elevated temperatures
Malý, Martin ; Filho, Sergio de Traglia Amancio (referee) ; Dr. Michael R. Tucker (referee) ; Koutný, Daniel (advisor)
Tato disertační práce se zabývá vlivem předehřevu na výrobu komponent 3D tiskem kovů technologií Selective Laser Melting (SLM), také známou pod označením Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF). V práci je obsažen přehled současného stavu poznání v oblasti realizace předehřevu a fyzikální podstaty předehřevu. Dále je v práci obsažen přehled vlivu předehřevu na konkrétní typy materiálů. Mezi tyto typy materiálů byly zařazeny titanové, intermetalické, niklové a hliníkové slitiny a měď. Z rešeršní části byly identifikovány perspektivní oblasti, které doposud nebyly dostatečně zkoumány, a kde by předehřev mohl vést k zefektivnění technologie LPBF a rozšíření oblasti zpracovatelných materiálů. Mezi tyto oblasti bylo zařazeno zkoumání vlivu předehřevu v kombinaci s dalšími procesními parametry na zbytková napětí u slitiny Ti6Al4V, vliv předehřevu na niklovou slitinu Inconel 939 a na měď. Předpokladem u Ti6Al4V a Inconelu 939 bylo, že předehřev sníží zbytková napětí a bude tak možné snížit množství podpůrných struktur během výroby, což by vedlo k zefektivnění technologie. Tato hypotéza byla zamítnuta, protože i přes snížení zbytkových napětí u Ti6Al4V nedošlo k jejich eliminaci a navíc, došlo k rychlé degradaci nepoužitého prášku, což zvyšuje náklady na výrobu. U Inconelu 939 dokonce zvýšená teplota vedla k vyšším deformacím, a tedy zbytkovým napětím v důsledku evoluce karbidické fáze. Další perspektivní oblastí, kde by předehřev mohl vést k zvýšení portfolia zpracovatelných materiálů, je měď. Měď je díky vysoké tepelné vodivosti a odrazivosti laserového záření považována za obtížně zpracovatelnou technologií LPBF. Z experimentů byl potvrzen velice pozitivní vliv předehřevu na relativní hustotu vzorků. Vzorky dosáhly hodnot relativní hustoty přes 99 % pokud byly tisknuty s předehřevem 400 °C. Bylo tedy experimentálně ověřeno, že předehřev může významně zlepšit zpracovatelnost skupiny materiálů, které mají nízkou pohltivost laserového záření a materiálů s vysokou teplenou vodivostí. Všechny výsledky vedou k lepšímu pochopení chování materiálů během zpracování technologií LPBF a mohou vést k jejímu rozšíření do dalších průmyslových odvětví. Výsledky jsou shrnuty ve třech publikacích, které byly vydány ve vědeckých časopisech.
