Description

Adjustable energy distribution optical system based on micro-lens group
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber laser welding, in particular to an adjustable energy distribution optical system based on a micro-lens group.
Background
The laser processing technology covers various laser processing technologies such as laser cutting, welding, quenching, punching, micro-processing and the like, and utilizes the basic characteristic of interaction between laser and substances. The laser beam has the advantages of non-contact with the processing material, high processing speed, excellent quality and the like, so that the laser processing technology is a high and new technology without replacement.
The laser welding has the advantages of high energy density, high speed, small welding deformation, wide fusion, narrow heat affected zone and the like, and splashing is easily generated in the high-power optical fiber laser welding process. The particles generated by splashing can be attached to the surface of a molten pool and a workpiece, so that the surface roughness change is easily caused, the base metal is scratched, and the reworking of parts, the damage of components such as protective glasses inside a laser welding head and the like can be caused in serious cases.
As is well known, the quality of the light beam of the fiber laser is good, and a certain defocusing amount is needed in the laser welding process, defocusing light spots are generally in Gaussian energy distribution, and the central energy density is much higher than the edge energy density. Therefore, the laser spot energy distribution is changed, the violent boiling of the base material in the welding process is avoided, the Gaussian distribution beam is not used as far as possible, and the improvement of laser welding spatter is facilitated.
Currently, there are roughly several methods for improving the energy distribution of a laser beam: firstly, adjusting the energy distribution of a light beam from a laser source; and secondly, adjusting the energy distribution of the light beam from the laser processing head.
The energy distribution of light beams is shaped from a laser, the main stream comprises IPG, Coherent, Trumpf and the like, the energy distribution of point-ring combination can be realized by outputting laser beams through a multi-core coaxial optical fiber, and the ratio of the point-to-ring power under the condition of point-ring combination is adjustable. The problem is that the requirement of the multi-core coaxial optical fiber on the beam quality of the laser beam is extremely high, and the cost of the whole set of laser is more expensive than that of a common laser with the same power. In addition, the laser is adopted to realize the adjustment, the variation of the energy distribution near the focus can be ensured, and when the defocusing amount is larger, the energy distribution of the light beam gradually approaches Gaussian distribution, which is not beneficial to the removal of larger splashing particles.
The laser processing head is used for adjusting the energy distribution of light beams, typically a Precitec double-sheet micro lens, to realize point-annular combined light spot adjustment, and the defect is that the adaptability of the lens with the same specification to different optical fiber core diameters and different optical configurations is poor due to the same specification lens parameter. In addition, the scheme of a double-waveband welding head is adopted, the common optical fiber laser and 915nm semiconductor laser on the market are applied in a composite mode, the power of the used semiconductor laser is low, the quality of light beams is poor, and the absorption rate of materials to 915nm wavelength laser is not high, so that the optical fiber laser still has high output power, and laser splashing cannot be effectively improved.
