Process monitoring

The SPOLD and LD-Heater laser processing systems from Hamamatsu were recently introduced in Europe and feature real-time integrated temperature measuring

Coherent PowerMax PRO OEM is a new laser power sensor whose large active area, fast response and high power capacity offer advantages over the semiconductor photodiodes and other detectors commonly used for continuous inline monitoring in applications having a narrow process window

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

Combining the sophisticated control technology with in-situ process monitoring for metal additive manufacturing will give customers maximal control on the production process

Amada Miyachi America, a manufacturer of resistance welding, laser welding, marking, cutting, and micromachining equipment and systems, announces the new MM-L300A Laser Weld Monitor

The Precitec WeldMaster platform can perform both online seam tracking and seam monitoring during laser welding processes

With this new feature, the system looks straight through the nozzle right at the cutting zone, monitoring it in real-time and autonomously controlling the feed rate of solid-state laser machines
