1 Fiber laser welding system Welding

2 A new era of laser welding Multi-functional, high speed and high grade welding Integrated processing from 3D CAD/CAM to welding Information Amada Fiber Laser Welding system achieves high speed and high grade welding that is impossible with conventional laser welding. Amada provides the solutions to your common welding issues. Features such as a Fiber laser oscillator, Amada s original processing head and a range of software assist you with the complete welding process and enhance your laser welding productivity. : White goods panel Material: SUS Thickness: 1,0 mm : 250 x 200 x 100 mm Present issues Bending of vertical radius fold requires for special tools which add to costs. Three-directional radius corner cannot be bent- separate parts must be fabricated. Welding distorts the product. Bend gauging and dimensional accuracy are unstable. Post-weld finishing requires much time and labour increasing costs. Benefits of integrated processing Vertical radius fold can be bent using standard tools. Three-directional radius corner can be bent in one hit with special tooling and finished to a high quality. 90 mm backgauge fingers achieve consistent angle accuracy. Fibre laser welding reduces the distortion of the product and reduces finishing time.

3 FLW Series new technologies 1 ❶ Welding performance improvement of highly High speed and high 2 reflective or difficult-to-weld materials Amada welding grade welding technology package What is a fiber laser? New original processing head Fiber laser welding system ❶ Beam weaving system Window rotating Laser beam ❶ Improved welding of highly reflective and difficult to weld materials A fiber laser has a short wavelength and high beam absorption against metal. This enables a fibre laser to weld aluminium, copper as well as highly reflective and difficult to weld materials thereby expanding your processing range. ❷ Realise high grade processing with smooth continuous welding Continuous waveform (CW) welding produces highly airtight and smooth welds. The NC auto focus control feature enables a wide range of weld processing from appearance to emphasis on deep penetration and strength. ❸ Improved efficiency and reduced costs A large reduction in electricity costs is made possible due to a high heat exchange efficiency. Maintenance cycles are also improved due to the reduction of mirrors and other optical components. Wavelength (µm) Total efficiency, including chiller Beam absorption rate Ferrous AL Fiber laser CO 2laser Disc laser Fiber laser Pump laser diode FBG ❷ High grade processing by smooth continuous welding Continuous waveform (CW) welding Pulse welding Monolithic structure, small area to be cooled, no optic parts High speed (high average power) Continuous, smooth beads Low speed (low average power) Scaly beads Active fiber ❶ Beam weaving system The optic system rotates, therefore rotating the laser beam. Amada s patented beam weaving system allows welding of large-gap parts, filler feeding and aluminium processing. ❷ NC auto focus control The NC focus control feature automatically controls the focus lens to the optimum position based on the processing condition. This simultaneously enables butt welding with a small beam and radius finishing of corners by focusing on a wide area. ❸ Movable filler and gas nozzle The filler reel can carry a maximum of 20 kg. The gas nozzle automatically retracts when the TAS function is used (Teaching assist system). 3 Enhanced efficiency by digitalization Supporting high quality welding with advanced technology ❶ AMNC/PC Amada s original controller is used to: Download processing programs from CAM Visualize setup information Database of processing conditions ❷ NC auto focus control Laser beam being rotated Laser beam ❸ Movable filler and gas nozzle ❶ AMNC/PC ❷ TAS (Teaching assist system) ❷ TAS (teaching assist system) The TAS function saves you the difficult task of manually teaching the robot the welding paths. The deviation between the welding path and target is compensated using a high resolution CCD camera and stored to memory. Enhanced efficiency by digitalisation 2 Dedicated off-line programming software ❶ FLW-CAM The AMADA FLW-CAM software improves your efficiency through off-line robot teaching, simulating movements based on 3D data. ❶ FLW-CAM 5
