Laser welding machine is a very popular automatic welding machine in recent years. For many manufacturers who are still using argon arc welding machine, laser welding equipment is a new thing, and it is a new type of automatic welding machine that they want to try. Today, we will explain to you the advantages and disadvantages of laser welding machines, and explain the doubts for manufacturers who are still hesitant.
Advantages of laser welding machine
1.Electric welding is more beautiful and generous:
Stable light quality, small cold damage area during welding, no deformation of the workpiece, no welding scars, firm welding, smooth and beautiful welding, reduced post-polishing process, saving time, effort and cost.
2.High manufacturing efficiency:
Laser welding is faster, the melting depth is deeper, and the welding yield rate of different materials is high, which is 2-10 times faster than traditional welding. Equipped with cold water equipment, it can guarantee continuous work for 24 hours.
3.Safety and environmental protection:
Laser welding is green, safe and environmentally friendly. Traditional argon arc welding machines will produce a large amount of welding dust and residue, which is very harmful to the environment, while hand-held laser welding machines are relatively less harmful to the environment.
4.Low labor cost:
Taking the argon arc welding machine as an example, the argon arc welding machine needs a qualified welder, while the handheld laser welding machine only needs ordinary operators. The labor cost of a full-fledged electric welder is higher than that of ordinary operators. The operation is simple, and the product can be welded without a master. Electric welding is faster, 2-10 times faster than traditional electric welding, and one piece of equipment can save at least two welders a year.
5.Less consumables and long life:
Less consumables, long life, can achieve long-term electric welding; the high-definition big picture hand-held laser welding machine basically does not need consumable costs. The pump source has a long service life of 100,000 hours, and it is basically maintenance-free in daily life.
Laser welding equipment can be used in sheet metal parts, mainframe boxes, water storage tanks, power distribution cabinets and other server cabinets, kitchen cabinets and bathrooms, stainless steel anti-theft door guardrails, hardware products, outdoor advertising light boxes, metal products, lithium battery components, Steel furniture, storage shelves and other industries, in terms of materials, laser welding equipment can be used for welding of various copper sheets, such as aluminum, copper, stainless steel sheets, metal sheets, etc. And the welding of various thermoplastic resins such as aluminum copper, stainless steel plate copper, etc., the fields covered are far beyond the traditional welding technology. This advantage is not available in traditional electric welding.
