Laser Welding

Various applications for custom laser welding systems

Custom laser welding systems have become an important solution in a variety of industries where precision and efficiency are crucial. Here are some examples: In the automotive industry, these systems enable precise welding of various components, from chassis to exhaust systems. Complex shapes, often found in precision mechanics and electronics, benefit from laser welding's ability to create detailed joints.
The need for fine edges, which is particularly relevant in industrial sectors such as precision mechanics and medical manufacturing, can be satisfied by the precision of laser welding. In the steel industry, custom laser welding systems are used to join different steel parts with high precision and minimal heat input.
In the medical manufacturing industry, laser welding plays an important role in the manufacture of medical instruments and implants.
​​​​​​​In the fine electronics industry, laser welding enables microscopic welds for the manufacture of circuits and electronic components. Finally, in the pressure vessel industry, laser welding is used to create strong and durable joints on pressure vessels and containers.
Custom laser welding systems have thus become a key component in various sectors where advanced welding technology is required to achieve high-quality and reliable results.

Even hard-to-reach areas can be laser welded if there is a clear line of sight between the laser head and the welding area.
The process can be used on almost any material that can be welded with conventional welding equipment. Lasers can also weld difficult-to-join materials such as high-carbon stainless steel and titanium, as well as various materials that are otherwise unjoinable.

Laser welding is characterized by exceptionally smooth and fine weld seams. Lasers are excellent for welding thin materials, performing hermetic welds, or for welding close to heat-sensitive components as the heat-affected zone with laser welding is significantly smaller than with conventional welding methods. Even hard-to-reach areas can be laser welded if there is a clear line of sight between the laser head and the welding area.

Laser welding can be used on almost any material that can be welded with conventional welding equipment. Lasers can also weld difficult-to-join materials such as high-carbon stainless steel and titanium, as well as various materials that are otherwise unjoinable.

We offer customized solutions for most applications - from standard solutions to custom-built systems for welding unconventional material combinations.

What does ILWS mean?

ILWS, or Integrated Laser Welding System, is an acronym that refers to laser welding systems that are integrated into a specific business or adapted to its needs. These systems are tailored to meet the specific requirements and conditions of each customer. ILWS offers flexibility and precision to ensure efficiency and high quality in the welding process in different industries and applications. By adapting laser welding to the unique needs of a specific business, ILWS can increase productivity and reduce welding costs.

Hybrid Laser Welding

Hybrid laser welding combines laser with other heat sources, such as arc or induction, typically laser with gas metal arc welding (MIG or MAG). The intense laser and melting of the MIG/MAG wire enable high-speed welding and reduce distortion compared to MIG/MAG alone. The hybrid method is often used for materials such as aluminum alloys and carbon steel sheet.

Remote welding - galvo-guided laser welding

Remote welding, or galvo-guided laser welding, uses galvo mirrors to manipulate the laser beam across the workpiece. This allows for fast and precise movements for spot welding of materials that require strong joints. The process reduces cycle time and is used for a range of applications, from the electronics industry to automotive sheet metal welding.
