LPE Have Just Installed a Robotic Fibre Laser Welding Cell

May 14, 2014

The cell has been designed and manufactured specifically to meet the needs of  the LPE wide range of customers. Powered by a IPG 3KW Fibre Laser and ABB 7 Axis Robot with dual work holding positioners it is capable of welding a envelope size of  1500mm*1000*1000 * 6mm thick.

With welding speeds of up to 5 meters per minute, with no distortion, allowing our customers to design there products completely differently giving them the ability to select different materials as well as much thinner gauges. The quality of the weld eliminates the need for expensive dressing and polishing making the finished product not only aesthetically better and lighter while also reducing manufacturing cost considerably.

Using this technology we can weld dissimilar material such as brass to stainless steel and copper to stainless steel which allows our customers to replace existing processes like furnace brazing. With little or no distortion it allows post machining operations to be eliminated again saving cost and allowing more imaginative designs.

Before you deign your next product you must come and see the capability and quality of products this cell is producing.
