how does laser welding machine work

The welding process of laser welding is very similar to the traditional MIG TIG (arc welding) welding process. However, in contrast to MIG, TIG welding, Laser welding is much cleaner than conventional arc or Tig welding, and thus helping to reduce the risk of contamination. It's also more precise, easier to automate, and provides for bonding of much thinner metals, and provides for much greater tensile and bending strength.

Laser welding is a process that uses a laser beam to join metals or thermoplastics together to form a weld seam. As such a concentrated heat source, laser welding can be performed at ultra-fast welding speeds in thin materials, while narrow, deep welds can be produced between square-edged parts in thicker materials. Often one would use a wire feeder from a laser welding machine supplier to fill the weld seam.

how to use laser welding machine

Since laser welding machine is different from MIG and TIG, the operation of laser welding machine is the simplest. Usually, MIG, TIG, and other welding processes require a welder who is very familiar with the welding technique to operate. Unlike laser welding machines, you only need to set the parameters needed for the laser to penetrate the surface, and you can use the parameters set at that time without changing the thickness of the material in the future.

There are almost no consumables for laser welding machines, but the more common ones are gases, lenses, and copper nozzles. Lenses and copper nozzles are usually included by the laser welding machine supplier when the machine is packaged. These are enough to last for many years.

We can see the process from start-up to use on our YouTube channel, and after watching the video you'll know how to use the laser welder!

Laser welding machine production methods and costs, accessories.

The laser welding machine is basically composed of optical components ( There are galvanometer, beam expander, field lense and other important optical devices in the optical path system of the laser welding machine.), laser welding head, automatic wire feeder, control board (laser welding machine control system), laser generator and so on. The YAG laser welding machine will also include the YAG laser generator (yttrium aluminum garnet crystal).
