Abstract

In this paper, the monitoring system was developed measuring the light signal emitted from the plasma in aluminum laser welding. Spectrum of plasma was measured using a spectrometer, and the photodiode was selected based on the spectrum analysis. The sensor signals for various welding conditions could be obtained, the characteristic of signal was closely related to the intensity and stability of plasma through mean value of signal and FFT analysis. The reason of signal fluctuation was behavior of plasma and keyhole and it was also connected with the surface bead shape of weld.
