Laser welding is a fast and economical way of welding materials. Using a laser, a precise and strong weld can be achieved with minimal influence on the surrounding material (HAZ). As a result, fragile and small parts that would be very difficult to weld using traditional methods can also be welded with lasers.
Weld metals and plastics quickly and accurately using a range of systems, from manual to fully automated.
Selection of lasers
Handle any material with fiber, solid state, diode and USP laser options.
Greater versatility
Utilize individual systems that can weld, cut, mark, texture and drill.
Better results
Get better welding results by reducing spatter by 70-80%.
Higher performance and lower costs
Speed up laser processing and eliminate post-processing steps.
Easier workflows
Easily integrate with many part handling and production automation options.
Laser welding of plastics and working with polymers
The increasing use of plastic parts, especially for high-precision products, is driving manufacturers to seek joining technologies that offer better welds, higher production throughput and lower costs. Laser welding of plastics promises to be a boon in all of these areas. Thus, the introduction of the laser process delivers optimal results and reduced costs.
Metal welding not only in the automotive industry
Welding steel, aluminum and galvanized steel in the automotive industry can be much easier and faster if you do it with a laser with advanced Coherent ARM technology.
Welding copper and difficult-to-weld metals
The boom in e-mobility manufacturing is a major factor leading to a significant increase in demand for copper welding solutions. Copper has a number of desirable electrical, thermal, mechanical and cost properties compared to other metals and is therefore used in all electric vehicles - in electric motor stators, in the distribution system (busbars etc.) and in batteries.
Welding of batteries and battery cells
Advanced laser technology provides the high-speed precision bonding necessary for the cost-effective production of battery cells for electric vehicles. With COHERENT ARM lasers, manufacturers can look forward to streamlined production and reduced manufacturing costs.
Precision welding in medical device, electronics and jewellery manufacturing
From manual welding of individual prototypes to fully automated production, Coherent's laser welding machines help optimize the cost of endoscope manufacturing. The same machines are also used for precision welding of electronics, jewellery and wherever delicacy, not brute force, is required.
