North America is expected to fuel the Laser Welding market, attributed to the growing demand for high productivity in the ...

Through numerous sample runs, [Dries] found that defocusing the laser to a spot size of 1.5mm at low power settings makes for a perfect threadless seam. The resulting test pockets are quite ...

But high electrical conductivity also means that copper has high thermal conductivity, which makes welding difficult. Any laser heat that is applied to a specific spot quickly transfers through to ...

In a few years, this new technology could lead to more efficient and reliable ways of using high-power lasers for welding and directed energy deposition with laser and wire. The manufacturing ...
