Effect of laser welding technology on weld microstructure of S690QL1 steel tube

S690QL1 steel tube, A335 P22 is a steel grade of American Standard boiler tube, and the executive standard is ASTM A335 / A335M, which is chromium molybdenum high temperature ferritic steel for boiler and superheater. A335P22 alloy pipe is mainly used as heating surface pipe of low and medium pressure boiler (working pressure is generally not more than 5.88 MPA, working temperature is below 450℃); A335P22 alloy pipe is also used as economizer, superheater, reheater and petrochemical industry pipe of high pressure boiler (working pressure is generally above 9.8MPa and working temperature is between 450℃ and 650℃).

Generally speaking, the higher the strength of S690QL1 steel tube, weathering steel, the greater the hardness, while the plasticity and toughness will decrease. When the carbon content of weathering steel exceeds 1.2%, the hardness will increase, but the strength will not increase, but will decrease. Resilience will also decline quickly. When the carbon content is high, the cementite increases and forms network distribution, which weakens the connection between grains and makes the mechanical properties of steel worse.

Laser cutting, it is a specific way of cutting S690QL1 steel tube steel plate cutting processing, is also one of the common way of cutting its on the cutting or machining parameters, if you want to get the right number, is that you can adjust these parameters to achieve a goal, adjust a few times more to get accurate numerical right in addition, we also need to know is, the faster the cutting S690QL1 steel tube speed, the light intensity is smaller, so, the smaller the laser penetration is, in turn, can control the penetration depth of laser.

Both parties shall confirm the S690QL1 steel tube material object and the quality of the products, confirm the reasons for the defects and the quality of the products, and sign the quality inspection agreement. Major quality objections shall be reported to relevant leaders in a timely manner, and shall be discussed and solved with the S690QL1 steel tube steel plant.
