    摘要: Laser beam welding a workpiece includes: generating first and second beam areas on the workpiece by first and second laser beams, respectively. The beam areas are guided in a feed direction relative to the workpiece. Centroids of the beam areas are not coinciding. The first beam area runs ahead of the second beam area. A length of the first beam area, measured transversely to the feed direction, is greater than or equal to that of the second. A surface area of the first beam area is greater than that of the second. A width of the first beam area, measured in the feed direction, is greater than or equal to that of the second. A laser power of the first laser beam is greater than that of the second. The second laser beam is irradiated into a weld pool generated by the first laser beam.
