Abstract
A method for laser welding a pair of metal pins delivers a laser beam to a work-side of the pair of metal pins where a respective pair of surfaces of the metal pins are adjacent to each other and face in the same direction. The laser beam first traces a first path on the work-side to form a melt pool by keyhole welding. The first path crosses an interface between the metal pins. After tracing the first path, the laser beam is switched to trace a second path on the work-side with the laser beam at a delivered rate of energy per unit path length that is less than the one used for the first path. The second path crosses the interface and is within the first path. The method is well-suited for welding of hairpin and I-pin stators.
