With the development of laser technology, laser welding machines have been rapidly developed in various industries. Laser welding machines are one of the important aspects of the application of laser material processing technology. According to their working methods, they can be divided into laser molds and welding machines, automatic laser welding machines, laser spot welding machines, optical fiber laser welding machines, etc. What fields can laser welding machines be applied to?
1. Hardware, tool and instrument industry
Assembly, welding and butt welding of instruments, sensors, kitchen supplies and tableware, repair and mold modification during mold making and use. Seamless welding of stainless steel tableware and welding of instrument core connection.
2. Bathroom and kitchenware industry
The laser welding machine has a good appearance, so it is widely used in laser marking and laser welding of high-grade sanitary stainless steel products. For example, handles, faucets, stainless tableware, knives, etc. are mostly made of enterprise logos by laser marking, and high-grade electric kettles are also sealed by laser welding. Assembly, welding and butt welding of kitchen supplies and tableware, repair and mold modification during mold making and use.
3. Energy, lighting and building materials industry
Laser processing is widely made of laser solar cells, such as laser scratch cutting of solar silicon chips and welding of heat conducting plates of solar water heaters. As a kind of environmental protection and efficient processing, laser processing will be more widely used in the future.
4. Automobile industry
Now, laser welding production line has appeared in the automobile manufacturing industry on a large scale, becoming one of the outstanding achievements of the automobile manufacturing industry. German Audi, Mercedes Benz, Volkswagen, Sweden's Volvo and other European automobile manufacturers took the lead in using laser welding for roof, body, side frame and other sheet metal welding as early as the 1980s. In the 1990s, American General Motors, Ford and Chrysler companies introduced laser welding into automobile manufacturing. Although they started late, they developed rapidly.
5. Electronics and electrical appliances industry
As laser processing is a non-contact processing method, it does not produce mechanical extrusion or mechanical stress, so it particularly meets the processing requirements of the electronic industry. Such as: welding of transformers, inductors, connectors, terminals, optical fiber connectors, sensors, transformers, switches, mobile phone batteries, microelectronic components, integrated circuit leads, etc.
