  • Publication number: 20240123531
    Abstract: A method for producing a flared or lap joint including a steel sheet and an aluminum-based sheet material through brazing, wherein a preceding laser beam irradiates ahead of a steel sheet joining position and the aluminum-based sheet material in the joining direction to preheat a joining position, an electrically-heated aluminum-based filler wire feeds to the joining position, a following laser beam is irradiated behind the filler wire so the wire melts performin brazing, and the filler wire is fed with a tilt ranging from 0°?D?19° to a front or rear side in the joining direction with respect to a line passing through a groove center of the flared joint and is perpendicular to the joining direction, so that a flared joint or lap joint including a steel sheet and aluminum-based sheet material is produced without appearance defects of a bead and with a sufficient joint strength.
