Dual Beam Technology for High Speed Welding and 3 | RFQ Sourcing Details

Adjustable Mode Beam Lasers Dual-Beam Technology Overview Overview dary ring beam that supports a high intensity core beam. For welding, the core beam creates the weld while the ring beam stabilizes the weld pool, enabling high-speed, spatter-free welding which virtually eliminates defects like cracking and porosity.

Up to 3 kW Single-Mode Core Up to 50 kW Multi-Mode Power Air-Cooled Options Two Beams Are Better Than One Adjustable Mode Beam (AMB) lasers introduce a secondary ring beam that supports a high intensity core beam.

For welding, the core beam creates the weld while the ring beam stabilizes the weld pool, enabling high-speed, spatter-free welding which virtually eliminates defects like cracking and porosity.

The Widest Selection of Dual-Beam Lasers IPG fiber laser technology enables the independent control of simultaneously emitted core and ring beams with more flexibility than any other dual-beam technology.

Greater control over individual beam parameters enables more process optimization to weld faster, better, and more reliably. Multi-Mode High-power multi-mode AMB lasers offer the highest dual-beam output power available and are often used for high-speed structural welding.

Single-Mode Single-mode AMB lasers are ideal for e-mobility and battery welding applications that demand high throughput and consistent weld quality. Quasi-Continuous Wave Quasi-CW AMB lasers utilize bursts of extremely high peak power to offer excellent results in reflective metals and allow air-cooled operation.

Dual-Beam Technology Traditional laser welding uses a single focused beam to form the weld pool. Dual-beam technology adds a secondary ring beam that surrounds and supports this focused beam. AMB lasers emit the central core beam and outer ring beam simultaneously and independently of one another.

This enables users to control the parameters of each beam dynamically for greater control over process results. AMB Fiber Lasers Eliminate Weld Defects Traditional Single Beam Laser Welding High-speed keyhole laser welding can create high levels of vapor pressure, propelling liquid metal spatter from the weld pool.

Spatter deposition contaminates the work area and increases the risk of short circuits for electrical welding, increasing system downtime and part rework. The loss of material often causes porosity in the solidified joint that leads to reduced strength, cracking, and non-hermetic seams.

AMB Dual-Beam Laser Welding The introduction of a ring beam stabilizes the weld pool to allow metal vapor to escape without spatter. The addition of this wider area of lower laser power allows the weld pool to solidify more gradually, preventing cracking.

By stabilizing the keyhole, AMB enables welding speeds up to more than 10X faster than single beam welding while producing smoother joints with superior mechanical strength.

, including Li-ion , busbar-to- , and welding of electric motor hairpins, high-speed and high-quality welding is critical to meet throughput requirements and ensure the quality and safety of the final product.

AMB lasers enable the creation of high quality weld seams at the speeds necessary to make millions of individual welds a year. AMB for Cutting & Drilling The flexibility of AMB lasers enables more than just improved welding.

AMB lasers enable high-speed, high-quality piercing and cutting across a wide range of materials and thicknesses, improving edge quality and surface finish while eliminating the need for multiple lasers or accessories.

The Strongest Structural Welds Although aluminum has become an increasingly common solution for structural manufacturing, aluminum's high thermal conductivity creates challenges in welding quality and productivity.

Rapid heat dissipation results in quick solidification of molten material, leading to cracking and porosity due to trapped plasma and shield gas bubbles that weaken joint strength. AMB lasers produce excellent welding results in structural welding applications, often eliminating the need for process gases.

Traditional High-Speed Aluminum Laser Welding Single beam laser welding of aluminum can cause underfill due to material loss from spatter ejection, leading to structural weakness and unacceptable surface roughness.

AMB Dual-Beam Laser Welding High-speed AMB welding of aluminum results in high-strength welds with no cracking, very low porosity, and an aesthetically pleasing finish.
