The paper shows the advantages of application of a hybrid welding process (YAG laser + hot wire TIG) compared to TIG processes and laser welding, to produce reliable and sound joints of critical structures in high-nickel alloys. A great depth of penetration and high efficiency of the process can be achieved at a small input.
