The materials that fiber laser welding machine can weld-Ariel

The materials that fiber laser welding machine can weld

Nowadays handheld fiber laser welding machine is more and more popular. So today we will introduce the materials that fiber laser welding machine can weld.

Today the most advanced welding technology in the world is laser welding. The laser welding machine uses high-energy laser pulses to locally heat the material in a small area. It is a new type of welding method, mainly for the welding of thin-walled materials and precision parts. It can realize spot welding, stitch welding, sealed welding, etc.With high aspect ratio, small weld width, small heat affected zone.And fast welding speed , beautiful, no need to deal with or simple processing after welding, small focus spot, high positioning accuracy, easy to realize automation. What materials can the laser welding machine weld?

1. Die steel

The laser welding machine can be used to weld S136, SKD-11, NAK80, 8407, 718, 738, H13, P20, W302, 2344 and other types of die steel, and the welding effect is better.

2. Carbon steel

The laser welding machine welds carbon steel with good results. The welding quality depends on the content of impurities. In order to obtain good welding quality, the carbon content exceeds 0.25% requires to preheat. As the carbon content increases, the sensitivity of weld cracks and notches will increase.

3. Alloy steel

For laser welding of low-alloy high-strength steel, as long as the selected welding parameters are appropriate, a joint with mechanical properties equivalent to the base metal can be obtained.

4. Stainless steel

Because the welding speed and heat-affected zone of the laser welding machine are small, the overheating phenomenon and the large linear expansion coefficient of the stainless steel welding are alleviated, and the welding seam has no defects such as pores and inclusions. Compared with carbon steel, stainless steel is easier to obtain deep penetration narrow welds due to its low thermal conductivity, high energy absorption rate and melting efficiency. Welding thin plates with a low-power laser welding machine can obtain a well-formed joint with a smooth and beautiful weld seam.

5. Copper and copper alloy

Welding copper and copper alloys is prone to problems of infusion and incomplete penetration. Therefore, For preheating measuresa we should use heat source with concentrated energy and high power; When the thickness of the workpiece is thin or the structural rigidity is small, and there are no measures to prevent deformation, it is easy to produce large deformation after welding, and when the welding joint is subject to large rigid constraints, welding stress is likely to occur; It is also prone to thermal cracks when welding copper and copper alloys; Porosity is a common defect in copper and copper alloy welding.

6. Aluminum and aluminum alloy

Aluminum and aluminum alloys are highly reflective materials. When welding aluminum and its alloys, as the temperature increases, the solubility of hydrogen in aluminum increases sharply.And the dissolved hydrogen becomes a source of defects in the weld. And there are many pores in the weld. There may be a cavity in the root during deep penetration welding. Then the weld bead formation is poor.

Hope this will be helpful to you.Any other questions,pls let me know.

Preparation before using the welding machine-Ariel

Preparation before using the welding machine

This article is about preparation before using the welding machine.

Recently,we received many orders about handheld fiber laser welding machine.And some clients have received their laser welding machines now.But some clients never use this kind of machine before.So today we will tell you the preparation before using the welding machine.

Firstly,you need to prepare the Auxiliary gas,water and electricity.

1.Auxiliary gas
We suggest you use the auxiliary gas to weld.Nitrogen and argon are all ok.It can protect the lens so the lens lifetime will be
longer. The price of the gas is different in different counties and regions. If you think the cost
of the gas is too high, you can use air compressor to produce air gas. But the welding effect
will not very good, the welding surface of the metal may be black, so our customers should
wipe the surface of the metal with ethyl alcohol.Nitrogen or argon all is ok.

2.Water
You need to prepare 18L pure water or distilled water.We will drain the water in the water chiller before shipment
to prevent the water inside form becoming moldy and deteriorated during transportation.So you need to put in the
water when you receive it.And it will be better to change the water once a week.

3.Electricity
1000w welding machine need 220V,single phase.So you need to prepare the air switch in advance.

Here is the video about how to use the machine when you receive it.Hope it will be helpful to you.

Handheld fiber laser welding machine-Teresa

Handheld fiber laser welding machine

Fiber laser welding uses a high energy density laser beam as a heat source for efficient precision welding. However, laser welding requires high precision for workpiece pre-machining. So the position of the beam on the workpiece cannot not deviate significantly. If the assembly accuracy or beam positioning accuracy of the workpiece does not meet the requirements, it is easy to cause welding defects. This limits the process capability of laser welding to a certain extent. Because the spot size is small and the weld is narrow after laser focusing.

In response to the limitations of the above laser welding technology, the market has gradually introduced a laser welding method with double wedge laser vibration. There’s a special wobble vibration module on the welding head. The application of wobble welding technology can make laser welding more widely used. And it can achieve high-efficiency laser precision welding for larger or wider welds workpieces.

Laser Welding Technology

In conventional laser vibration welding, the collimated beam is vibrated by a uniaxial galvanometer. And the spot focused by the focusing mirror is moved with the welding head to move relative to the workpiece. Thus forms a weld having a certain amplitude, frequency and offset.

Compared to the first two vibration welding modes, the double wedge mirror rotational vibration welding produces a spiral weld seam by the vibration module mounted between the collimating mirror and the focusing mirror, so that the focusing spot moves while the welding head moves. When the focal length is the same, the larger the torsion angle, the larger the vibration amplitude. When the torsion angle is the same, the larger the focal length, the larger the vibration amplitude. Therefore, double wedge vibration welding allows the weld joint to be wider while achieving better weld formability.

Advantages of hand-held laser welding over traditional welding and laser welding?
