Rofin has introduced a new polymer welding solution based on the company’s MPS, a production proven, multi-purpose laser workstation. The new solution houses a Dilas Compact Evolution laser, operating with 980nm or 880nm wavelength and a CW power of 150-500W. A pyrometric process control allows for a constant welding temperature and therefore optimised results.
The systems are equipped with a special human machine interface for polymer welding and a workpiece clamping unit working with either a pneumatic or a servo clamping drive, manufactured to the customer’s specific requirements. The control software for the joining process has been developed for polymer welding applications, in order to deliver a setting signal and level for process control and quality assurance. Data can be logged for process statistics and quality management.
The polymer welding system is either sold as a turnkey machine or as a functional kit consisting of laser, clamping unit and software for process control.
With this latest release, Rofin’s extended MPS family now consists of the MPS Compact, MPS Flexible, MPS Rotary and MPS Advanced.
