Abstract

With the popularity of lightweight requirements, the application of tailor welded blanks with unequal thickness is increasing gradually. The welding deformation of tailor welded blanks with unequal thickness inclined weld is affected by the external constraints and the internal structural parameters of the plates. In this paper, the effect of the external constraints and the internal structural parameters on the multi-layer and multi-pass welding deformation of unequal thickness inclined weld was investigated. The deformation distribution law of butt welding of unequal thickness inclined weld was obtained combined with simulation and experiment results. The results showed that the spring constraint method was similar to the actual welding condition, meanwhile, the control effect of spring constraint on the welding deformation was better. The welding gap had the greatest influence on the welding deformation, followed by the angle of inclined weld, thickness of thick plate and thickness of thin plate. When the thickness difference between two plates was kept at 50%, the control effect of welding deformation was the best.
