摘要: In this paper we describe a novel spectroscopic closed loop control system capable of stabilizing the penetration depth during laser welding processes by controlling power. Our approach is to analyze optical emission from generated plasma plume above keyhole, calculate its electron temperature as process-monitoring signal. Laser power has been controlled using quantitative relationship between and temperature. The sensor able correlate in real time difference measured reference value for requested depth. Accordingly adjusts power, thus maintaining
