The objective of this study is to investigate the formation of the structure and stress–strain state in the joints of AISI 304 stainless steel with a thickness of 2 mm and produced by welding with laser and plasma energy sources. It is established that the microhardness and parameters of the grain and subgrain structures of the welded joint material differ with respect to the dimensions of crystallites, grains, and subgrains according to the welding process. It is shown that, in terms of structure formation, including substructural features, the most favorable structures of 2 mm AISI 304 welded joints are formed by laser–plasma welding. It is predicted that the residual stressed state is less localized with the application of laser–plasma welding than laser welding, and it is characterized by a lower level of residual stresses compared to plasma welding. In all the cases, the maximal stress values are concentrated in the HAZ, and the value obtained using laser–plasma welding is in an intermediate position (431.7 MPa) between those of the laser (443 MPa) and plasma (413.7 MPa) processes. With laser–plasma and laser welding, displacements (deformations) are minimal and close to 0.2 mm. The method of electron speckle interferometry was used, and the results reveal that the error between the calculated and experimental values of equivalent stresses is no more than 6%, which is acceptable. The results of mechanical testing show that, under uniaxial tension, the strength of the welded joints made of AISI 304 steel using laser–plasma and laser welding is the highest and equal to 97% of that of the base metal. |
