The thesis is focused on the study of the use of electric arc preheating, in this case source WIG, during laser welding of steel with a higher carbon content, specifically for this work steel 1.1191 thickness 2 mm. Based on the calculation of the carbon equivalent, the preheating was determined to 208 °C. The welding parameters were selected on the basis of the first experiments. In the experimental section, the samples were welded with laser with preheating using a source WIG, which were then made to a tensile test, Vickers microhardness, macrostructure and microstructure. By using a second heat source, the heat-affected area of the samples was expanded. Samples that cracked in the middle of the weld during the tensile test were heat influenced by cutting samples. The remaining samples was broken in the base material, thus the weld produced was of good quality. Combination of laser welding with WIG electric arc preheating is a very productive method over conventional methods and one of the few pre-heating solutions for laser welding. These are the initial experiments for the use of the WIG arc for preheating in laser welding, to be followed by further research, mainly for the automotive industry.
