Why can handheld welding be made so compact?

In the past two years, the application of laser in China has become more and more extensive, the trend of localization has been strengthened, and laser welding technology has gradually replaced traditional arc welding technology. Among them, handheld laser welding has been recognized by the market due to its high efficiency, flexibility, and ease of use.

Facing the strong business demands of the market, we are also constantly urging ourselves and making progress. The newly launched integrated air-cooled intelligent handheld laser welding machine has high-efficiency energy-saving technology, high-brightness single-module laser technology, and embedded laser welding process software. . Compared with the traditional assembled water-cooled handheld welding machine, its notable feature is its small size.

The all-in-one handheld laser welding machine has a "small and beautiful appearance" and a "stable and strong" performance.

Deeper system integration

The traditional assembled water-cooled handheld welding machine mainly includes a welding head, a control card, a laser, and a water chiller. These four components are independent and complete equipment, connected together by lines and pipelines, and then installed in a cabinet.

The integrated air-cooled handheld welding machine adopts a modular design. Its laser, refrigeration, and control are not independent entities, but core modules. Through the optimized design of light, mechanics, and electricity, all modules are integrated into a complete machine. Compared with the assembled solution, this integrated method can discard unnecessary components and re-plan and design the arrangement of each part, so the volume can be made smaller.

More efficient heat dissipation

The traditional assembled water-cooled handheld laser welding machine is to assemble the chiller and laser in a large cabinet, and use the chiller to dissipate heat for the laser: first cool the water in the water tank through the refrigeration system, and then take it away with circulating cooling water The heat generated by the laser.

The integrated air-cooled handheld laser welding machine directly uses the refrigeration system to cool the laser module, eliminating the existence of water, which is equivalent to reducing the weight and volume of a box of water. At the same time, this direct cooling method reduces the intermediate heat transfer link, and the cooling efficiency is higher, so the required cooling capacity is less, and the refrigeration system can be made smaller.

The integrated air-cooled hand-held laser welding machine is different from the current domestic traditional assembled laser hand-held welding machine. The air-cooled structure has no additional cooling water equipment, and the chiller pipes, components, control and maintenance links are removed, which reduces costs and increases Portability improves the overall reliability of the system. Major manufacturers have also launched their own integrated air-cooled handheld laser welding machines, which also means that the era of laser welding machine branding is coming.
