| Abstract |
The TPS beam-position monitor has two feedthroughs in one flange structure. The hermetic seal was formed with laser-beam welding (LBW). Nd-YAG LBW was adopted to weld a button electrode with a feedthrough; CO2 LBW served for a feedthrough and a flange, Fig. 1. A robotic arm was used for Nd-YAG LBW so that it could accomplish the complicated geometry of the welded joint. Although the CO2 laser was not coordinated with a robotic arm, fixtures were made to implement a circular welded joint the same as welding the feedthrough into a flange. For not only Nd-YAG but also CO2 LBW, the cover gas is the major key that avoids oxidation from atmospheric oxygen and maintains shiny weld beads. Taguchi methods were exploited to find the appropriate parameters for the Nd-YAG pulsed laser, for instance, the laser power, pulse-filling time, frequency etc.. This paper presents the process and details of laser-beam welding of two types for a beam-position monitor.
