The Effect of Fiber Laser Machining Parameters on Thermal-Affected Zone of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic

Abstract:

This study describes the effects of machining parameters on the thermal affected zone (heat-affected zone; HAZ) of carbon fiber reinforced plastic using fiber laser. The HAZ described in this study was defined as the area where only resin was removed. In three experiments, the HAZ area and the removal shape of carbon fiber were investigated. The study revealed that pulsed laser reduces the HAZ more than continuous-wave laser does, but it causes the swelling of the carbon fiber tip. Furthermore, the HAZ decreased as the scan speed increased, even if the number of scans was increased. In addition, it was found that nitrogen could restrain the HAZ and the swelling of carbon fiber.
