Laser Welding Process
Laser (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) welding is a fusion welding process in which metals or thermoplastics are joined using a focused laser beam. It is the most advanced type of welding method and finds application across many industries spanning from aerospace and medical equipment to fine jewellery making.
In the laser welding process, a concentrated beam of light is focused on the cavity between the materials to be joined. The powerful laser beam melts the materials at their seams and fuses into a joint. A highly concentrated heat source allows laser welding in thin sheet metal to be conducted at high speeds of metres per minute. In thicker materials, laser welding can produce deep and narrow welds.
Advantages Of Laser Welding
Laser welding is very versatile and can be used in conjunction with traditional arc welding to create hybrid laser arc welding. The resulting weld possesses the advantages of both laser welding and arc welding. The weld will also have deep penetrating joints and improved tolerance to joint fit-up. Undesirable effects such as internal porosity and cracking are reduced.
When compared to traditional welding, laser welding has the following advantages:
Less heat
A highly concentrated laser beam is focused on a small area, making the heat-affected zone (HAZ) smaller. Thus, laser welding requires low-temperature input when compared to traditional welding.
Faster processing time
Though the initial investment is high, the process proves to be more cost-effective than traditional welding. Laser welding offers a faster processing speed that results in higher production and quicker turnaround.
Lower risk of thermal distortion
As the process involves low heat input, there is less thermal stress. The focused beam melts only a small surface area of the metal, resulting in minimised heat-induced internal stress and distortion to the workpiece.
High precision
In laser welding, the laser beam can be controlled and focused on a small area. This permits the welding of components with high precision. Its tailorable spot size makes laser welding best suited for delicate or thin metals.
