The effects of laser parameters on coating thickness of Glazing process

This paper studied the effect of changing the traverse speed of laser on coating thickness after the laser glazing. Glazing process done by using CW CO2 laser of 100W to melt a thin sheet of soda lime glass with 0.15 mm average thickness on AISI 1075 High Carbon Steel sheet. The laser power were (7,...

Description
Summary:This paper studied the effect of changing the traverse speed of laser on coating thickness after the laser glazing. Glazing process done by using CW CO2 laser of 100W to melt a thin sheet of soda lime glass with 0.15 mm average thickness on AISI 1075 High Carbon Steel sheet. The laser power were (7, 9 and 11)W after many pilot studies, with three traverse speeds of (0.3, 0.4 and 0.5) mm/s, while the minimum laser spot were set in three different positions were they 2 mm below surface (-2), on the surface (0) and 2 mm above the surface (2). The results show fine glass structure layer covers the steel substrate. The high thickness occurs at the slowest traverse speed and laser spot position above the surface.
