What are the differences and advantages between laser welding machines and argon arc welding?
Nov 03, 2023
Handheld laser welder is a very popular welding equipment in recent years. Compared with many manufacturers who still use argon arc welding, laser welding machine is a new technology. Today, the editor of Pudian will explain to you the main features of laser welding machine. What are the advantages? Let us answer questions for manufacturers who are still hesitant.
1. The weld seam created by fiber laser welder is neater and more beautiful
The laser welding machine has stable welding, good beam quality, small heat-affected area during welding, no deformation of the workpiece, no welding scars, firm welding, smooth and beautiful welds, reducing subsequent polishing processes, saving time and costs.
2. High production efficiency, flexible and convenient
The laser welder has faster welding speed, relatively deep penetration, high qualification rate of welded products of different materials, and is 5-10 times faster than traditional welding. Equipped with an additional chiller, it can run continuously for 24 hours.
3. Production is more safer
Laser welding is not only environmentally friendly but also safer in production. Traditional argon arc welding will produce a large amount of welding dust and residue, which is more harmful to the environment, while handheld laser welding machines have relatively little impact on the environment.
4. Low labor cost can save several workers
Take argon arc welding as an example. Argon arc welding requires an experienced welder with a welder certificate, while a handheld laser welding machine only requires an ordinary operator. The labor cost of an experienced welder is originally higher than that of an ordinary welder. Operators, the handheld laser welding machine is easy to operate, and you can weld beautiful products even without a master craftsman. The welding speed is faster, 5-10 times faster than traditional welding. One machine can save at least two welders a year.
5. Laser welding machines consume less and can be used longer:
Laser welding machines consume less consumables and have a long service life, which can meet long-term welding requirements; large-scale handheld laser welding machines generally do not require consumables costs. The pump has a service life of up to 100,000 hours and is generally maintenance-free.
Laser welding machines are widely used in the sheet metal industry, hardware and metal products, home cabinets and kitchens, stainless steel door and window guardrails, outdoor chassis, water tanks, distribution boxes and other cabinets, outdoor advertising signs, craft products, battery components, carbon steel furniture, shelves, In the fields of aluminum alloys and other materials, laser welding machines can be used to weld aluminum alloys, aluminum, iron, stainless steel, carbon steel and other metal sheets of the same material.
