  • MAGNESIUM HYBRID PARTS AND PROCESSES
    Publication number: 20140057125
    Abstract: A light weight alloy part is molded in a mold containing at least one weldable metal insert, so that portions of portions of the alloy part lap portions of the insert to securely lock the weldable insert to the light weight alloy part. The resulting hybrid part is thus both light weight and weldable to other assemblies and sub-assemblies.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 13, 2013

  • LASER-WELDED ALUMINUM ALLOY PARTS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20110097598
    Abstract: A method of welding difficult to weld aluminum alloys using a laser welding device with at least 4 kilowatts of power operable at a speed of from about 40 millimeters per second to about 160 millimeters per second with a spot size of about 250 to about 600 microns focused at the surface of the aluminum pieces, without the need for shielding gas or filler wire, and the parts made thereby which are of suitable strength and properties to use as lightweight reinforcement structures, particularly in vehicle interior structures.
