Abstract: The invention relates to a method for laser welding the end faces of the joints (5, 6) of two connecting flanges (3, 4), which are held in an adjoining manner, of two connecting partners (1, 2) made of a steel material. According to the method, in addition to being moved in the advancement direction, which follows the longitudinal extension of the joints (5, 6), the welding laser beam (8) is moved back and forth in an oscillating manner transversely to the advancement direction. At least one of the two connecting partners (1, 2) to be welded at the connecting flange (3, 4) joints (5, 6) is equipped with a metal coating at least in the region of the respective connecting flange (3, 4).

Abstract: A description is given of a method for the laser welding of two parts to be joined (1) that are positioned in relation to one another, in which method the laser head, with the laser beam (9) emitted from it, and the two parts to be joined (1), with the joint (3) thereof, are moved in relation to one another in a feeding direction along the longitudinal extent of the joint (3) and the laser beam (9) produces in the joint (3) a weld seam with a target welding-in depth (8) which is deeper than the critical welding-in depth of the parts to be joined (1), wherein the welding method is performed in two steps and, to form the weld seam connecting the two parts to be joined (1), in a first step material in the joint (3) is melted by the laser beam (9) down to the target welding-in depth (8) and wherein, in a subsequent step, the weld seam produced by the first step is melted once again down to a welding-in depth which, as a maximum, corresponds to the critical welding-in depth of the parts to be joined (1).

Abstract: A method for laser welding the end faces of joints of two connecting flanges, which are held against each other, of two connecting partners made from a steel material, of which at least one is provided with a metallic coating with an evaporation temperature that is below the melting temperature of the steel material. The method is carried out such that, for the process of laser welding, the connecting flanges of the two connecting partners are held against each other enclosing an angle that opens pointing in a direction from the joint side on which the laser is applied, as a result of which a degassing gap, which increases in the direction of heat introduction, is provided between the connecting flanges, through which degassing gap evaporation products of the coating material resulting from the introduction of heat are carried off.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for laser welding the end faces of joints (2, 2.1) of two connecting flanges, which are held against each other, of two connecting partners (1, 1.1) made from a steel material, of which at least one is provided with a metallic coating with an evaporation temperature that is below the melting temperature of the steel material. The method is carried out such that, for the process of laser welding, the connecting flanges (1, 1.1) of the two connecting partners (1, 1.1) are held against each other enclosing an angle that opens pointing in a direction from the joint side on which the laser is applied, as a result of which a degassing gap (5), which increases in the direction of heat introduction, is provided between the connecting flanges (3, 3.1), through which degassing gap evaporation products of the coating material (8, 8.1) resulting from the introduction of heat are carried off.
