บทคัดย่อ :

Laser cladding is considered to be a highly complex process to set up and control because it involves several parameters, such as laser power, laser scanning speed, powder flow rate, powder size, etc. It has been widely studied for metal-part coating and repair due to its advantage in controllable deposited materials on a small target substrate with low heat-affected distortion. In this experiment, laser cladding of U75V and U20Mn rail steels with Inconel 625 powder was captured by an infrared camera with image analysis software to monitor the laser cladding process in order to determine the quality of the cladded substrates. The cladding temperature, thermal gradient, spot profile, and cooling rate were determined from infrared imaging of the molten pool. The results showed that cladding temperature and molten pool’s spot closely related to the laser cladding process condition. Infrared imaging provided the cooling rate from a temperature gradient which was used to correctly predict the microhardness and microstructure of the HAZ region. This approach was able to effectively detect disturbance and identify geometry and microstructure of the cladded substrate.
