Adaptive laser beam shaping with a deformable mirror enables efficient energy and material usage in laser welding and ...

Non-contact laser welding offers several advantages when it comes to joining one plastic part to another. It works on the principle of partial transmission which lets a laser’s light travel through ...

A fabricator that needs to weld thick plate in as few passes as possible often will turn to submerged arc welding (SAW), a ...

Yongcui Mi has developed a new technology that enables real-time shaping and control of laser beams for laser welding and directed energy deposition using laser and wire. The innovation is based on ...

Cobot laser welding at THG goes back several FABTECHs, during a dinner conversation between company representatives and a ...

Research center Laser Zentrum Hannover (LZH) is researching ways to make welding thick plates in shipbuilding more reliable. The scientists are developing a multi-laser beam welding process with ...

With glass substrates and arc torch, “Collar” hybrid process unites metal shielding gas welding and laser material deposition. Collar Hybrid AM process relies on a combination of arc and laser ...

As with traditional welding techniques, materials are melted in the weld zone, although laser-based techniques use quicker heating and cooling cycles (Figure 1). These rapid thermal cycles are a ...

The devices and tools used in medicine are becoming smaller. They have greater functionality and are expected to last longer than earlier devices. Design, manufacturing, and packaging the devices and ...
