The effect of laser welding parameters such as laser power, laser speed, working distance and weld pressure on the weld strength, microstructure and meltdown of modified T-joints were studied using a diode laser and a contour welding technique. Specimens made of 30% glass reinforced nylon 6 were used in this study. A regression model was fitted to the data based on a central composite experimental design. The model showed that low levels of laser power at lower laser speed gave the maximum weld strength. It was observed that increases in weld pressure had a negative effect on weld strength. Meltdown was found to increase proportionally to the line energy and weld pressure.
