Laser welding (a.k.a. laser beam welding) uses a precision laser beam as a concentrated heat source to melt metals and thermoplastics to fuse them together as they cool down and solidify. This is a non-contact process that is extremely precise and controlled, resulting in strong welds, clean seams, and minimal thermal warping.
A laser welding machine like the WeldTech LPC-1500-LWS is versatile and can be used for a wide range of applications as it can weld thin and delicate materials at fast speeds while also being able to run narrow, deeper welds to join thicker materials. The thickness and type of material will dictate the power and duration it takes for fusion to occur from laser welding.
The operating costs of laser welding are significantly lower than traditional welding methods as it requires no filler material and eliminates the need for pre-weld and post-weld surface preparation. A laser-generated weld is precise, clean, and strong, producing a visually appealing final product.
In industrial processes, a laser welder is often automated for quicker throughput and consistent welds. Automated laser welding is often used in automotive, aeronautics, electronics, and medical instrument manufacturing.
