At TM Lasertechnik we work in the field of laser welding with pulsed and CW laser welding systems. These enable extremely fast spot welding and also completely non-contact welding. Both the base material and a possible filler material are melted with the help of the concentrated light beam.
Due to the very high energy density in laser welding, the materials liquefy particularly quickly compared to other welding processes on the one hand, and on the other hand they also liquefy locally in a very limited manner. Without heating through the base material, they form a material-to-material bond. There is virtually no distortion. The weld seam is particularly fine. Reworking, meanwhile, is significantly reduced or even eliminated.
Depending on the intensity of the laser beam, a distinction is made between two different methods: heat conduction welding with shallow welding – e.g. for thin sheets and visible edges – or deep welding. Here, slim, deeply formed seams and high strengths are produced.
In laser welding or laser beam welding, energy is focused by means of focusing optics. This energy is then fed to the workpiece by a laser with a diameter of < 1 mm.
Edge of a punching tool was rebuilt. 1.2767 tool steel, hardened to 62 HRC.
Broken cooling fin on a cylinder of a museum vehicle.
Flange and tube of an aluminum filter system were joined vacuum-tight.
Material: 1.4404
(chrome-nickel alloy).
With internal, very sensitive silicone seal. The pipe to be welded on is only approx. 5 mm from this seal.
Damaged hydraulic piston, newly welded on over a large area. Material: Tool steel (16CrMoV4)
Edge of a high-strength aluminum alloy was rebuilt by 0.5 mm.
Can also be used in the direct vicinity of thermo-sensitive materials such as plastics.
Very low heat-affected zone of max. 0.03 mm. Hardly any thermal stress, thus hardly any warpage.
High degree of automation through use of welding robots.
Hardly any spatter, weld bead or burr formation.
Very slim and complex seam geometry with highest, consistent quality. Multi-layer joints also possible.
Largest range of processable base materials and filler materials possible.
High welding and joining speed. Therefore particularly high efficiency (up to 8 times faster than TIG welding).
Mobile laser welding possible worldwide.
We recommend our laser technology for almost all areas of application in which the highest precision and consistent quality with high cost-effectiveness are required.
Whether prototype construction, new part production, series production or repair services – laser welding enables an innumerable sum of solutions to join metals due to its variability.
In addition, deposition welding / laser cladding can be used to produce coatings for surface finishing.
We use laser welding to join material thicknesses from 0.03 mm. The bandwidth ranges from components weighing several tons (turbine or mechanical engineering) to components weighing just a few grams (measurement and control technology / medical technology).
Regardless of the respective component dimensions and thicknesses, it is also possible to join material pairs with very different material thicknesses: For example, laser welding can be used to join a sheet of 0.1 mm to a solid component of 1 m or more with an accurate fit and without distortion.
