Laser Welding Gas Supply System

Laser welding gas supply system, also known as laser beam welding (LBW), is a machine used in weld to fuse pieces of metal by using a laser. Beam from the laser allows targeted heat source, which in turn provides a high, consistent level of welding and weld uniform. Review indicates that the process is dominant in the industry with high-volume applications, such as in automotive related industries.

Similar to the electron beam welding (EBW) system, high intensity, targeted and laser weld produces heat affected areas of highly concentrated heating and cooling rates. Laser dot size and typically vary in size between 0.2mm and 13mm. The smaller size is very useful in welding. Amount of power in direct proportion to the depth of laser penetration. The point of penetration is maximized when the target is slightly below the surface to be welded.

Lasers can be pulsed, the output varies with the point in time, for example, in an alternating on and off application. Continuous, which is a constant flow, is another option. In the pulse vs continuous review, it is the preference depends on the welder and work.

Unlike the application of MIG and TIG, laser weld easily adapted to robotic equipment. Laser hybrid could combine the arc and laser equipment with a technique known as gas metal arc welding. The types of supply regulator varies with the application. These hybrids provide flexibility in a better position during the process when the supply of molten metal and laser speed combine for great efficiency.
