Sažetak
When choosing a welding method, it is necessary to consider various factors such as welding speed, welding temperature, the need for additional material, the need for energy source, size, cost, and the ease of maintenance of the equipment and apparatus. In this paper, the application of laser welding on structural steel S355 is investigated using an industrial device designed for this purpose. After thorough surface preparation and optimization of the parameters for both the initial and multiple passes, laboratory tests were conducted, including non-destructive (NDT) and destructive (DT) methods. The results show that the applied method is capable of producing a homogeneous and high-quality welded joint with minimal damage caused by the generated heat. The paper provides a detailed analysis of parameters such as scanning speed, laser beam width, power, and frequency, and the obtained mechanical characteristics are compared with relevant norms and standards.
