Abstract
Technological research on laser and consumable-arc hybrid welding at process speeds of 15-300 m/h is described. Application of the hybrid process at fixed power of laser radiation is rational up to a certain thickness of welded metal, above which the penetration depth does not increase, despite lowering of welding speed
Keywords: hybrid welding, laser, electric arc, stabilisation, penetration depth, weld thickness, welding modes
