The best way to compare laser welding to arc welding is on the basis of your own product and production requirements. Page 2 Others Laser Wobble welding machines have many advantages over traditional welding processes: IT is very fast: Laser Welding is much faster and more versatile than traditional welding methods. Laser energy provides consistent energy to the weld spot. This means excellent speed, thermal control, and seam quality. Voids and pockets are eliminated and secondary finishing is unnecessary. Minimal Heat Input: The laser allows the metal to be heated extremely quickly, while limiting the risk of deformation It reduces improper alterations to components. Less heat transfer to the surrounding metal also means less distortion at the weld seam. Also a much smaller HAZ (Heat Affected Zones) and much less crackings just beside the weld. It is highly accurate: They allow a localized, very fine, very clean, almost invisible welding with high precision. The laser beam can be easily controlled to weld the tiniest of parts without damaging them. They are particularly suitable for welding small parts, they are extremely accurate . They have a high consistency: It delivers consistent repeatability. One weld to the next can be virtually indistinguishable. They guarantee great strength: Laser Wobble welders do creates very high-strength welds. They can be adapted to a wide variety of part shapes and materials: You can use them to weld parts with very different shapes and to make complex Joints. It makes welding together materials that differ from each other possible. They do not wear out: Laser welding machines operate without contact, so there is no risk of wear and tear on the machine. There is also no need to change tools or electrodes, which is a definite advantage in terms of waste reduction. They can be given orders digitally: It is now possible to control the quality of the welding from a computer during the welding process. They are VERY Profitable: Fiber laser welding is now with our Lasermach WOBBLE Handheld fiber laser welding machine VERY affordable and accesable for every company Page 3 What is Wobble Laser Welding? Standard laser welding heads are designed to focus a laser beam to ONE required spot size, keeping the beam path static. This configuration limits the applications due to local overheating and too small welding spot. On the other hand, our Wobble heads incorporate scanning technology inside our weld head. By moving the beam with internal optics, the focal spot is no longer static and can be dynamically adjusted by changing the shape, amplitude and frequency. Wobbling helps to meet the higher requirements Wobbling effectively increases the beam diameter during the welding, this to increase the width of the weld while maintaining the high efficiency of deep keyhole welding. The increase in effective beam diameter results in a much more stable weldingpool which reacts like a normal welding pool. You have to treat the welding pool indentical like you know already, but much faster. Laser welded with identical power settings Wobble welding = Laser Stir Welding = Trepanning Laser Welding Laser welding without Wobble Laser Welding with Wobble Wobbling laser beam reduces drastic the weldding defects Thanks to the use of the Wobbling weaving technique, it is possible to bridge gaps that are up to 30%~50% wider than is possible using conventional laser welding systems while retaining the same high quality or even achieving better quality. A factor of 2-4 increase in both process parameters can be achieved compared to conventional laser welding without Wobbling! Page 2 The beam oscillation/wobbling has a positive impact on the laser welding process since the welding mode is shifting from keyhole to conduction. welding. Without oscillation, the samples exhibit a large amount of surface voids, spatters and small pores caused by the keyhole instability. Internal porosities are seen in most of the welds but with wobbling the porosities becomes much less and with very small dimensions (2 to 16 µm) which can be considered irrelevant, while without wobbling, the pories and inclusions are evenn visible with the naked eye.

Laser Wobble Welding = eco-friendly & cost-effective! Industrial fabrication, and the welding process in particular, is a highly energy intensive process involving the consumption of large quantities of gas, electricity and consumables. Energy saving has become a priority for welding industry. This is due to the recent increase in energy demand and constraints in carbon emissions. Therefore, the minimum energy-oriented green welding process is must. Wobble Laser Welding (WLW) is considered to be the most significant development in metal joining and is a “green” technology due to its energy efficiency, environment friendliness, increased speed, reduced postprocessing and cleaning, and versatility. As compared to the conventional welding methods, WLW consumes considerably less energy. Lasermach is committed to the development of technologies which reduce energy consumption, improve the sustainability of our industry and improve occupational health and safety.
