The heat changes the optical properties of Clearweld, leaving behind a highly transparent seam (see Fig. 2). Transmission laser welding can be subdivided further according to the various means of ...

Laser welding, a highly sophisticated method that utilizes focused laser beams to melt and join materials, has gained ...

Through numerous sample runs, [Dries] found that defocusing the laser to a spot size of 1.5mm at low power settings makes for a perfect threadless seam. The resulting test pockets are quite ...

The production of fuel cells requires the use of a rapid laser welding process; however, welding at too high a speed results ...
