Case Study

Unite or Divide The laser is a versatile tool; it can divideor it can unite, it all depends on the angle you take,” said Berthold Leibinger when Erich Honecker asked him what a laser was at the Frühlingsmesse in Leipzig. That was back in 1989, but the statement holds true to this day. These days, the laser is an established cutting solution in sheet metal processing – and offers the opportunity to stand out when it comes to the joining of materials.

onstantly changing customer requirements. A pressurized competitive environment. These are challenges companies in the metal processing industry know all too well. The trend is towards more and more product variants, and this is forcing companies to rethink their approach. Production processes must be adapted and customized. After all, the only way to succeed in this business is to master costs and quality while negotiating the tendency towards smaller and smaller batch sizes. One important indicator of cost per part is the lead time – which helps forecast the eventual profit per job. Most crucially, it can be controlled, for instance by using new technologies that eliminate whole steps in the process chain. Joining is one step in the process chain that harbours particular potential in this regard. Depending on the quality requirements, this process currently calls for several minutes of reworking to eliminate the disruptive deformations on weld seams produced by conventional welding processes. This can add up to hours of extra work, depending on the batch size. New, alternative technologies and production techniques, such as laser welding, promise a solution to the problem. The Laser – A True All-Rounder TRUMPF uses lasers for far more than cutting sheet metal. Lasers are also ideal for joining processes, and laser welding is long established, for instance in the automotive industry. It is high time that processors of sheet metal also benefited from the technology. While the laser might not be able to replace every MAG welding operation, where it is possible, it offers significant advantages. One benefit is that it provides greater design flexibility – particularly when it comes to complete assemblies. Established joining technologies such as MIG, MAG and TIG welding, are significantly slower than laser welding, and bring their own disadvantages.

Arc welding is conducted at high temperatures, often resulting in deformation of the component and time-consuming More rework. Then there is the cost of optimizing the weld seam, which must often be polished or ground. For those willing to invest and build up their expertise in laser welding technology, the quality of sheet metal processing enters a new dimension. First you have the exemplary quality of the weld seam. And since laser welding ensures that less of the heat enters into the actual component, hardly any deformation occurs. In many cases, there is no need for any rework whatsoever. Another advantage of the technique is the durability of the welding seam. This is where deep welding comes into its own, creating highly durable slim but deep seams. The laser also offers advantages when it comes to flexibility and speed. For deep welding operations in particular, it can achieve very fast throughput rates, and process several meters of sheet metal every minute. Lasers also allow for a range of joint types and geometries – even when the area to be welded is accessible only from a single side. The laser can weld overlapping seams, a concealed T-joint or even materials of varying thicknesses – opening up a wealth of new design possibilities. FusionLine – Tolerant Laser Welding Laser welding is known for its perfect results and high-quality visible seams. However, preparing components for laser welding calls for specific expertise. There ought to be as little tolerance as possible in the design – or at least that is how things were in the past. Now, FusionLine offers an ideal complementary technology that helps users get started. FusionLine makes it possible to compensate for component imperfections in the welding process and even to close gaps of up to 1millimeter in breadth. At the same time, the welding seam results and processing times offered by FusionLine significantly

The FusionLine joining technique can be used to join parts, even when this involves the bridging of gaps. It smooths out any unevenness during the welding process and closes gaps up to one millimeter wide. That makes it possible to use the laser on many parts that were originally designed for conventional welding methods. (Picture: Oliver Graf Fotostudio GmbH)

outperform those of components processed using conventional welding techniques. This means that users can take advantage of the perfect combination of laser beam guidance, optics and a weld feed system to perform cost-effective laser welding operations even if their component portfolio is not optimized for laser welding. It is now possible to laser weld an array of parts developed for conventional welding without having to modify them specifically for the purpose. This enables users to manufacture parts true to the drawing, and also more kinds of parts than before. What is more, customers retain full flexibility. They are free to switch between FusionLine and the conventional laser welding techniques of heat conduction and deep welding with no need to reset the machine. That way, they can manufacture one series of components that isn’t worth modifying for laser welding using FusionLine, then manufacture a subsequent series using heat conduction or deep welding. Users can also switch between techniques on the same component. This allows them to laser weld more components than before, and to make fuller use of their laser welding unit. The FusionLine function allows operators to join components that are not optimized for laser welding and for instance, to uncover cracks. The results obtained with FusionLine far exceed conventional welding both in terms of the weld seam quality and the speed of execution. Exploiting The Full Potential Of Laser Welding Laser welding pays for itself – many times over! For one thing, users save themselves substantial amounts of rework and can make significant savings thanks to the laser’s speed. When switching from arc to laser welding, cost savings of more than 50 percent are not uncommon. Often the savings potential can be much higher. On the other hand, lasers offer the opportunity to realize designs that would be unthinkable using conventional welding techniques. When you put it all together, what operators are gaining is the opportunity to stand out from the competition and appeal to whole new customer segments. By now, it is clear that the laser offers untold possibilities in welding applications. But how to exploit it? How do you build up the expertise in laser-optimized design and setup? Know-how from conventional welding techniques will stand you in good stead. But in order to achieve the best possible results with laser welding, it helps to know the capabilities of the tool, as this will impact on the design. For instance, laser welding is an extremely rapid process. Consequently, when it comes to costs the length of the weld seam is less relevant. What is more important are the savings resulting from high-quality seams that eliminate the need for rework. In order to achieve the best possible quality, the

component should be subject to the tightest possible tolerance levels. Those new to the process can find out how this is done in TRUMPF’s laser welding workshop, led by TRUMPF welding experts. The experts will answer questions on the correct weld seam to use or component accessibility, for instance. And best of all: the workshop specifically covers components taken Mild steel terminal box (from bottom to top): unwelded, manual MAG weld, FusionLine weld, and laser weld after redesigning for laser processing.

TRUMPF as a technology company has the know-how of its applications and technology, which is catering in the market since decades with complicated but most user-friendly solutions with lucrative approach which is benefitting the society and industry as a whole.

Based on a batch size of 10x50 units per year, the potential savings are 65 percent. Calculation based on the typical average values for Germany. (Picture: Oliver Graf Fotostudio GmbH)
