Aluminum laser welding has the following advantages compared with traditional welding:
1. Low heat input: laser welding rapidly melts the metal through a high energy density laser beam with low heat input, which can reduce thermal deformation and heat-affected zone and improve welding quality and joint performance.
2. High precision: laser welding is characterized by high precision and high speed, which can realize small melting depth, small heat-affected zone and small deformation, thus obtaining high-quality welded joints.
3. High degree of automation: laser welding can realize automation and intelligent production, improve production efficiency and product quality.
4. Environmental protection: laser welding is a non-contact welding process, avoiding the traditional welding process of smoke, noise and other pollution problems, more friendly to the environment.
5. Wide material adaptability: laser welding is suitable for welding a variety of metal materials, such as stainless steel, aluminum, copper, etc., so it has a wide range of applications in the connection of different materials.
6. Wide range of weldable material thickness: laser welding can weld materials of different thicknesses, especially suitable for welding of thin, medium and thick plates.
7. High efficiency and energy saving: laser welding process has the advantages of high efficiency and energy saving because of its small heat-affected zone, very fast heating speed and high energy utilization rate.
8. Can weld complex shapes of aluminum: laser welding can be transmitted through fiber optics to achieve long-distance welding, and at the same time can quickly and accurately adjust the position of the beam and parameters to achieve the welding of complex shapes of aluminum.
In general, aluminum laser welding has the advantages of low heat input, high precision, high automation, environmental protection, wide material adaptability, high efficiency and energy saving.
