Fiber Laser Welding Cuts Costs and Improves Results

Abstract

Lasers have been employed in a variety of welding applications for many years. And, as laser technology further develops and diversifies, its uses in welding continue to expand. This article provides an overview of high power lasers in keyhole welding. It then examines the characteristics and advantages of fiber laser sources for welding from Coherent‐Rofin, in particular, and reviews a specific application that has benefitted from these lasers.
