  • Publication number: 20240351140
    Abstract: A fabrication method for a steel thin-walled tailor-welded part and a hot-stamped part prepared by using the tailored welded part, the method comprising: using steel plates (10, 10, 20) to be welded which have an aluminum or aluminum alloy coating (12, 12?, 22, 22?) is used; by means of adjusting the composition of a shielding gas (50) and the composition of a welding wire (30) during a welding process, in combination with the control of the welding speed and wire-feeding speed, controlling the content of free aluminum in a weld seam to be 0.1 to 4.0 wt. %, which prevents the production of iron-aluminum intermetallic compounds in the weld seam during a tailor welding process while ensuring that an appropriate amount of ferrite which is distributed in a dispersed manner is produced in the weld seam. The weld seam structure of the obtained tailor-welded part is +1 to 15 vol. % martensite, +0 to 5 vol. % ferrite which is distributed in a dispersed manner, and the remainder is austenite.

  • Publication number: 20220176490
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for manufacturing an equal-strength steel thin-wall welding component with an aluminum or aluminum-alloy plating, wherein the plating comprises an intermetallic compound alloy layer in contact with the base body and a metal alloy layer on the intermetallic compound alloy layer; the plating is not removed or thinned before or during welding; and by presetting a welding gap and using a carbon-manganese-steel welding wire, a welding process and protective gas for welding, the tensile strength of a welding seam of the welding component after hot stamping processing is greater than the tensile strength of a base metal, and the elongation of a welded joint is greater than 4% Further disclosed are a welding wire for welding and an equal-strength steel thin-wall welding component with an aluminum or aluminum-alloy plating.

  • Publication number: 20220168845
    Abstract: Disclosed is a different-strength steel welding component with an aluminum or aluminum-alloy plating formed by means of butt welding of a high-strength steel plate and a low-strength steel plate, and each of the high-strength steel plate and the low-strength steel plate comprises a base body and at least one pure aluminum or aluminum-alloy plating on a surface of the base body. The tensile strength of a welding seam of the welding component after hot stamping is greater than the tensile strength of a low-strength steel base metal, and the elongation is greater than 4%, such that application requirements of the welding component in the field of automobile hot stamping are met. The present disclosure also relates to a method for manufacturing a different-strength steel welding component with an aluminum or aluminum-alloy plating and a welding wire used in the method.
