4 high-powered laser systems are available for diverse welding and cladding applications: a 6-axis CO2 laser gantry robot, a 7-axis fiber laser system, a 10-axis MetcoClad system and a portable Nd:YAG laser. Typical uses include repairing turbine blades and applying wear-resistant coatings.
CO2 laser system
The CO2 laser operates with gas as the active laser medium, and it is still most frequently used in industrial applications. Due to its excellent beam quality, it is well suited for keyhole welding as well as laser cladding applications.
Technical data
CO2 laser with 200 W–2.2 kW power output
10600 nm (infrared) wavelength
Gantry robot with 6 CNC axes:
3 axes are translative X–Y–Z: 2.7 x 1.8 x 0.9 m
3 axes are rotatory A–B–C: 360°, ±90°, 360°
A-axis is stepless and tiltable by 90° between horizontal and vertical operation
Diameter for part’s turntable can be up to 1.8 m
5-axis simultaneous welding
Offline programming capability
Integrated contour recognition system
Fiber laser system
Flexibility is the main advantage of our fiber laser. The adjustable power output from 50 W to 1.5 kW makes it a perfect tool for laser cladding of iron-, nickel-, and cobalt-based materials as well as aluminum- and titanium-alloys.
The associated handling system was designed by us to ensure maximum flexibility for part geometry and part size.
