The safety of handheld fiber laser welding machine-Serena

The safety of handheld fiber laser welding machine-Serena

The safety of handheld fiber laser welding machine.

How is the safety of XT laser handheld welding machine.

1. The welding head is connected to the ground clamp.

Only when the ground clamp clamps the metal, the welding head can emit light.

If it is clamped in non-metal, even if the button is pressed.

It will not emit light, to avoid misoperation if it is not fully prepared.

2. The focal length of the welding head is about 150MM.

So the range beyond 30CM of the welding head is safe.

So please set a safety warning line for the 30CM near the operating table.
3. Welding requires the light to be out of focus.

The welding effect is the best and the safety is the highest.

It can avoid sparks caused by strong light and can also extend the life of the protective lens.

Defocusing is to adjust the scale on the copper nozzle of the welding head.

Where the test time is strongest, the copper nozzle can be adjusted up and down to form defocusing

Sometimes the strong light welding will burn the protective glasses.

And the sparks will cause the operator’s clothes to burn, etc., so it is recommended to test the off-focus before operation.
4. Radiation problem. The certificate shows that the radiation level of the welding machine is level 4, which is in line with the body’s acceptance range, so don’t worry.

5. Basic protective measures must be taken before operation: wear heat-resistant gloves and protective glasses

Handheld laser welding VS traditional welding and laser welding-Anne

Handheld laser welding VS traditional welding and laser welding

Laser welding machine uses a high energy density laser beam as a heat source for efficient precision welding.

Since laser welding machine requires high precision for workpiece pre-machining, the position of the beam on the workpiece will not offset.

if theassembly accuracy or beam positioning accuracy of the workpiece does not meet the requirements.

So It is easy to cause welding defects, which limits the process capacity of laser welding to a certain extent. This is 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 introduce a laser welding method with double wedge laser vibration, The realization method is to set a special swing 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 wider welds workpieces.

Wobble handheld welding head

Advantages of handheld 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 to form 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 is,the larger the vibration amplitude is.

When the torsion angle is the same, the larger the focal length, the larger the vibration amplitude.

Therefore, double wedge vibration welding allows to widen the weld joint  while achieving better weld formability.

6 factors will effect the effect of laser deep penetration welding (I)-Anne

6 factors will influence the effect of laser deep penetration welding

Deep penetration, or deep penetration welding.Common for welding thicker materials with high laser power.

In deep penetration welding, the lasers are focused together to create a very high power density on the workpiece.

In fact, the spot where the laser beam is focused will vaporize the metal, causing a blind hole (ie, deep penetration) to appear in the molten metal pool. The metal vapor pressure will block the surrounding molten metal, so that the blind hole is always open during the welding process.

The melt at the vapor-melt boundary and deep-melt hole walls will absorbed laser power.

The focused laser beam and deep penetration holes move continuously along the welding trajectory.

The welding material melts in front of the deep penetration hole and solidifies again at the back to form a weld.

so laser welding machine .
The factors that affect the effect of laser deep penetration welding are:

1.Laser power density

so laser welding machine .
The premise of deep penetration welding is to focus the laser spot so that it has a sufficiently high power density, so the laser power density has a decisive influence on the weld formation. Laser power controls both penetration depth and welding speed. For a laser beam of a certain diameter, when increase the laser power, the penetration get more  deep and the welding speed get more accelerate.

There is generally a critical value for the laser power to reach a certain welding penetration. When it is reach critical value, the molten pool boils violently, and when exceed it , the penetration depth will decrease sharply. In addition, due to the action of metal vapor, small holes will form in the molten pool, and the small holes are the key to the realization of deep penetration welding.

The focal spot power density is not only proportional to the laser power, but also related to the laser beam and focusing optical path parameters.

so laser welding machine .
2. Welding speed

so laser welding machine .
During deep penetration welding, the welding speed is inversely proportional to the penetration. and when maintain  laser power , if  increase the welding speed, it will reduce the heat input  and the penetration depth.

so laser welding machine .
3. Focus position

so laser welding machine .
In deep penetration welding, to maintain sufficient power density , the focus position is critical.so laser welding machine .

The change of the relative position of the focal point and the workpiece surface directly affects the width and depth of the weld.

Only when the focal point is located at a suitable position in the workpiece surface can the obtained weld be formed into a parallel section and obtain the maximum penetration depth.

What protective gas should I use for laser welding?(I)-Anne

What protective gas should I use for laser welding?

The role of shielding gas in laser welding

In laser welding, the protective gas will affect the weld formation, the weld quality, the weld penetration and the width of the weld. In most cases, the blowing of the shielding gas will have a beneficial effect on the weld, but it will not be used.  Good may also have an adverse effect.

The positive effect of shielding gas on laser welding

1) Proper blowing of protective gas will effectively protect the weld pool from oxidation and even avoid oxidation.

2) Proper blowing of the shielding gas can effectively reduce the splash generated during the welding process and protect the focusing mirror or the protective mirror.

3) Proper blowing of the protective gas can promote uniform spreading of the weld pool during solidification, so that the weld bead is formed evenly and beautifully.

4) Proper blowing of the shielding gas can effectively reduce the shielding effect of the metal vapor plume or the plasma cloud on the laser , increase the laser energy reaching the surface of the workpiece, and increase the effective utilization of the laser.

5) Proper blowing of protective gas can effectively reduce weld porosity.

As long as the gas type, gas flow rate, and  select correct blowing method , you can get desire effect. However, incorrect use of shielding gas can also adversely affect welding.

Adverse effects of improper use of shielding gas on laser welding

1) Incorrect blowing of shielding gas may cause the weld to deteriorate:

2) Choosing the wrong type of gas may cause cracks in the weld and may also result in a decrease in the mechanical properties of the weld;

3) Choosing the wrong gas blowing flow rate may cause the weld to be more oxidized. (whether the flow rate is too large or too small)

4) Choosing the wrong gas blowing method will result in the weld not achieving the protective effect or even the basic protection effect or negatively affecting the weld formation;

5) Insufflation of the shielding gas will have a certain influence on the weld penetration, especially when the thin plate is welded, the weld penetration will be reduced.

Hope it is helpful for you,we will share you the gas type in the next article.

Adverse effects of improper use of shielding gas on laser welding

laser welding machine

●Improper blowing of shielding gas may cause the weld to deteriorate;

●Choosing the wrong type of gas may cause cracks in the weld, and may also lead to the reduction of weld mechanical properties;

●Choosing the wrong type of gas may cause the weld to be more oxidized (whether the flow is too large or too small), or it may cause the weld pool metal to be seriously disturbed by the external force to cause the weld to collapse or form unevenly;

●Choose the wrong gas blowing method will result in the weld not achieving the protective effect or negatively affecting the weld formation;

●Insufflation of the shielding gas will have a certain effect on the weld penetration, especially when the thin plate is welded, the weld penetration will be reduced.The commonly used laser welding shielding gas is mainly N2(nitrogen), Ar(argon), He(helium), and their physicochemical properties are different, so the effect on the weld is different.

FIBER LASER WELDER

●Nitrogen N2—can be used for welding shielding gas of stainless steel

laser weldER

The ionization energy of N2 is moderate, higher than that of Ar, lower than that of He, and the ionization degree under the action of laser is general, which can better reduce the formation of plasma cloud, thereby increasing the effective utilization of laser.Nitrogen can react with aluminum alloy and carbon steel at a certain temperature to produce nitrides, which will improve the brittleness of welds and reduce the toughness, and have a great adverse effect on the mechanical properties of the weld joint.Therefore, it is not recommended to use nitrogen to protect the weld of aluminum alloy and carbon steel.The nitride produced by the chemical reaction between nitrogen and stainless steel can improve the strength of the welded joint and improve the mechanical properties of the weld. Therefore, nitrogen can be used as a shielding gas when welding stainless steel.

laser welding machine

●Argon Ar— high-cost performance, the most conventional shielding gas

FIBER LASER WELDER

The ionization energy of Ar is relatively low, and the degree of ionization is high under the action of the laser, which is not conducive to controlling the formation of the plasma cloud, and will have a certain influence on the effective utilization of laser.However, the activity of Ar is very low, and it is difficult to react with common metals, and the cost of Ar is not high.Besides, the density of Ar is large, which is conducive to sinking above the weld pool and can better protect the weld pool. Therefore, Ar can be used as a conventional shielding gas.

FIBER LASER WELDER

●Helium He—the best but also the most expensive shielding gas

laser welding machine

He has the highest ionization energy and low ionization under the action of laser.

It can control the formation of the plasma cloud very well, and the laser can work well on metal.

Moreover, the activity of He is very low, and it does not chemically react with metals, so it is a good weld shielding gas.However, the cost of He is too high to be suitable for mass production products.

Most of time it use for scientific research or products with very high added value.so
