Things to keep in mind during laser welding

Although there are no disadvantages to laser welding per se. However, there are several things to be aware of when applying this method on an industrial scale.

Understandably, laser welding requires a certain level of skill to carry out the task. If the task is carried out by someone who does not understand laser welding technology, then the end product will suffer.

The following are some incidents of lack of skill or experience:

For technicians working with laser welding systems, a clear understanding of the job and the type of laser to be used is a must.

Removing cavities is a must for technicians. If cavitation occurs during the welding process then the weld will not be durable and will fail after a while. This problem is mainly found in the pulsed laser welding method.

In the laser conduction welding method, it is essential that the laser heat is applied evenly along the metal surface. If the laser heat is not evenly distributed along the surface, this may lead to uneven welds, which will create reliability problems in the future.

You must take extra care when welding on optical surfaces as they can easily be damaged.

These are the things to look out for during laser welding. If you are interested in laser welding machines, I think SUNNAis an excellent choice for you!
