Scansonic, a producer of laser optics for welding, brazing and hardening, is showcasing two new innvovations in laser hardening at the Laser World of Photonics this year: its RLH-A laser processing optics and a new laser hardening process called CoHard.

RLH-A laser processing optics

Lasers for hardening steel surfaces can be used for high-precision hardening of the smallest structures. The new Scansonic RLH-A Rel. III laser optics offer increased precision compared to the earlier version.

II‐VI Incorporated has announced its new faster RLSK remote laser processing heads with integrated vision systems that enable welds with exceptional precision that are critical in next-generation automotive manufacturing

The ExactWeld 230 P from Coherent enables particle-free high throughput welding of small to medium sized polymer parts

Shape Process Automation's next-generation robotic laser cutting device, Newton, is designed for use with fiber laser-outfitted six-axis industrial robots, Newton's efficiency and precision provides dramatic cost savings and dimensional accura
