Adaptive control of
laser welding was introduced in 2005, and the introduction of techniques for handling thicker plate has since proved useful for nuclear decommissioning and welding heavy tanks, pressure vessels and thick pipes.
The new GLX-3 Laser Welders from Branson Ultrasonics, a business of Emerson, delivers clean, high-speed
laser welding of large-format plastic parts with more-complex geometries to meet the growing needs of automotive, appliance, medical, filtration and other applications that require particulate-free welds with superior aesthetic quality.
[1] highlighted that
laser welding phenomena are satisfactorily understood and provided in-depth analysis of existing methods for deep penetration LBW.
Wellspring Engineering manufactures custom
laser welding systems for use in medical device manufacture and related product and process development.
R&E continually looks to expand its areas of service within manufacturing technologies and remains committed to supporting the welding industry and adapting to changes within the manufacturing environment, such as recently adding a
laser welding lab for weld development, prototype/service build & training, and a state of the art training center.
Laser welding technology under testing for orbital environment and extreme pressure, temperature cycling
Laser welding techniques began being used in dental offices and laboratories after 1970 [7].
For students, engineers, scientists, and instructors concerned with
laser welding, specialists describe various laser or hybrid welding processing; the welding of various kinds of materials; and metallurgical, chemical, and mechanical aspects.
