What is laser welding machine and how does it work?
A laser welding machine is a device used for welding materials. It has a high power density and fast energy release, making its welding efficiency superior to other traditional welding patterns. Whether welding the same type or different materials, it is unnecessary to carry out secondary treatment. Its emergence has led to a large leap in welding technology.
Laser welding utilizes high-energy laser beam to locally heat small areas of materials. The energy from laser radiation quickly diffuses into the material through thermal conduction, melting the material to form a specific molten pool for welding purpose.
What kinds of welding machines can Gecnclaser produce?
Currently, GECNCLASER can offer more than 10 kinds of different welding machines for customers worldwide. According to degree of automation, we have handheld and robot-assisted machines. Based on cooling mode, there are air-cooled and water-cooled types. With regard to heat source, laser welding and electric-arc welding are available now. Customers may make decision or apply for customization as needed.
What types of welding can laser welding achieve?
Main welding types include butt welding, overlay welding, stitch welding, stud welding, T-joint welding, internal & external corner welding and seal welding. It has advantages such as deep welding depth, narrow width, small heat-affected zone, minimal deformation and fast welding speed.
What are the main applications of laser welding?
Laser welding uses laser beam as heat source. The main objects of welding are thin-walled materials and precision parts, such as stainless steel, carbon steel, mold steel, copper, aluminum, gold and silver. It can also repair defects such as wear, pore, sand hole, crack, scratch, deformation, and reduced hardness in workpieces.
What is the warranty period of laser welding machine?
The complete machine is under 1-year warranty. Its main accessories and consumables will be replaced depending on their specific service life. We also provide original accessories for global users, with quotes available within 24h and delivery within 3-7 working days. The change of these accessories will be given priority to our nearby subsidiaries or local service centers.
What is press brake and how does it work?
A press brake is a device that can bend thin sheet metals. It generates pressure through a hydraulic system, which is transmitted by upper and lower molds to achieve the desired bending shape. Depending on its drive mode, level of automation and structure, press brakes can be classified into manual, hydraulic and CNC press brakes.
What is panel bender and how does it work?
Panel bender is a highly automated bending machine, representing the latest advancement in sheet metal bending. It can bend into various complex shapes such as right angle, arc, up and down, without the need for manual holding of workpiece or bending mold. One-time positioning is enough for multi-side bending. Its bending speed is about 3 times faster than traditional press brakes. Due to the fewest human intervention, the consistency among workpieces is much higher, and it is gradually replacing the tradition.
For the panel bender, workers only need to place workpieces on its worktable, then, the workpiece will be positioned by suction cup or press-down arm and bent automatically. A set of universal bending mold is enough, without frequent change or customization
What is bending ability of a press brake?

What is a fiber laser cleaning machine?
How does fiber laser cleaning work?
What are the main applications of fiber laser cleaning machines?
Metal rust removal: Eliminate rust from surfaces like steel, iron, and aluminum.
Surface cleaning: Remove grease, dust, oxidation layers, etc.
Coating removal: Strip paint, plating, or other coatings from materials.
Pre-welding or pre-cutting surface preparation: Clean surfaces to improve welding or cutting quality.
Cultural artifact restoration: Remove dirt from artifacts while preserving their surfaces.
Does laser cleaning damage the base material?
What are the advantages of fiber laser cleaning compared to traditional methods?
Efficient: Fast cleaning with excellent results.
Non-contact: No direct contact with the workpiece, preventing damage.
Precise: Ideal for complex shapes and hard-to-reach areas.
Low cost: Low maintenance costs over time.
How does power selection affect the cleaning performance of a fiber laser cleaning machine?
Low power (50W-100W): Suitable for light dirt or fine surface cleaning.
Medium power (200W-500W): Ideal for moderate rust or coating removal.
High power (1000W and above): Designed for thicker coatings or heavy rust removal.
Power selection should be based on the specific application and material characteristics.
What are the main differences between pulse laser cleaning and continuous laser cleaning machines?
Ideal for cleaning sensitive or high-value materials.
Common in industries like aerospace, electronics, and cultural artifact restoration.
Continuous Wave Laser Cleaning Machines:
More suited for heavy-duty industrial cleaning tasks.
Frequently used in manufacturing, shipbuilding, and large-scale metal processing.
Is a fiber laser cleaning machine suitable for non-metallic materials?
What is laser cladding and how does it work?
What are technical characteristics of laser cladding?
Compared to commonly used methods such as overlay welding, thermal spraying and plasma spraying, laser cladding has the following advantages:
* The heat-affected zone is small, resulting in minimal deformation of workpiece and a high yield of cladding.
* The layer has fine crystal grains and dense structure, leading to relatively high hardness and better wear and corrosion resistance.
* Due to short duration of laser action, the dilution rate of cladding layer is low, which causes a smaller amount of material melted (typically 5%-8%). Therefore, it is possible to achieve the desired composition and properties even with a thin cladding layer, and to produce new structural features such as metastable phase, ultra-dispersed phase and amorphous phase.
* It is easy to automate the laser cladding, and the quality of cladding layer is always stable.
What materials are typically used for laser cladding?
The materials used for laser cladding are mainly thermal spraying and thermal welding materials, such as self-fusing alloy materials, carbide dispersion, or composite ceramic materials, which possess excellent wear and corrosion resistance. They are usually used in powder form, and during cladding, flames spray-welding may be employed to achieve a smooth surface with good adhesion to the substrate.
What is the warranty period of laser cladding machine?
What is CNC Milling Machine?
What are the main advantages of CNC Milling Machine?
* High processing accuracy with stable quality.
* Capable of multi-coordinate linkage, allowing for the cutting of complex-shaped parts.
* When changing spare parts, only CNC program needs to be modified, saving make-ready time for production.
* The machine tool itself has high precision and rigidity, resulting in high productivity (typically 3-5 times that of others).
* High degree of automation, which can reduce labor intensity.
* Higher quality requirements for operators and even higher technical requirements for maintenance staff.
