#FIBER LASER TECHNOLOGY TECH INNOVATION

laser technology has made it unnecessary
to have any particular training in order
to operate the equipment. Even unlikely
conventional welding technology there
is no requirement of setup for fiber laser
welding machines. They can be simply
transported to the job site.
Welding systems based on fiber laser
technology are the most cost-effective.
There is no requirement for filler material.
Even with this technology, the majority
of health and environmental risks during
welding have been eradicated. Fiber laser
welding has good welding effect, i.e.,
small heat affected area, no deformation,
firm welding, all with an attractive look,
for industries where good aesthetic look
matters but also needs firm weld.
Because no filler metals or consumable
goods are needed, and heat penetration is
regulated, this method saves a lot of time
and energy by eliminating the pre- and
post-grinding processes. This equipment,
according to Mehta Cad Cam, can speed
up welding processes by 2 to 3 times
compared to old or conventional welding
technologies.
It was difficult to weld aluminium
or other tough metals, even welding
on dissimilar metals was challenging
or welding low-thickness metals also
proved tough job. With Mehta’s fiber laser
machines any of these tasks can be easily machine, which comes in two capacities, robotics solutions from Mehta feature a
