You don’t have to look too far to find the reasons for the growth of fiber lasers for production applications. On price per watt, beam quality, electrical consumption, and maintainability required, fiber lasers typically score the lowest on the cost side and very high on the performance side.
Cobots, like other robot equipment, started in material handling applications. However, this year, Universal Robots is introducing welding applications and other heavy duty metal fabrication.
From producing lithium-ion batteries to processing sheetmetal, new laser welding systems are “pushing the envelope” of light absorption, beam control, speed and programming flexibility.
Laser micro-cutting can increase precision and enable contactless cutting for machines, leading to higher-quality products.
The structure of CMMC 2.0 has been streamlined to be slightly less stringent and easier to implement, especially for shops in the lower tiers of the supply chain.
Here’s how leading cutting tool manufacturers describe the pros and cons of standard vs. custom cutting tools.
From automotive production lines to shipbuilding, robotic arms, and the software that runs them, welding automation has played an important role in producing increasingly complex parts in shorter periods of time.
A look at the challenges related to welding in aerospace.
