SPI Lasers will be showcasing its redPOWER QUBE 20kW CW fibre laser, the firm’s most powerful fibre laser to date, capable of cutting and welding thick metals with precision and speed.
Also new for 2019, SPI Lasers‘ redENERGY G4 250W fibre laser features a pulse energy of >1.5mJ and a peak power of >10kW, making it ideal for high speed welding (even of dissimilar metals), cleaning and battery foil cutting.
Matthew Dale explores the range of laser solutions available for copper processing applications in e-mobility
Paul Harrison, chief engineer for product applications at SPI Lasers, describes a new mode of operation for fibre lasers that enables beam quality to be varied on demand
The recent introduction on high power single mode fiber lasers has opened up the capabilities of oscillation welding to a point where it can be competitive with high power multimode welding. The greater control of weld profile and heat input can yield significant benefits in real world welding applications.
The webinar will cover:
UK fibre laser manufacturer SPI Lasers has achieved a mark in quality with Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) status
Dr Jack Gabzdyl and Dr Ken Dzurko, of SPI Lasers, highlight the multiple applications that fibre lasers can be used for in the making of electric vehicles
The webinar, presented by Dr Mike Poulter, will give an in-depth insight into a number of areas regarding ns Pulsed Laser Welding, such laser sources, joining process, benefits over conventional welding processes and much more!
At booth 1068 SPI Lasers will be presenting its latest products from both its pulsed and CW fibre laser platforms.
