Laser welding
Laser welding is a highly modern, technologically advanced and automated welding process for joining various metals and/or non-ferrous metals. Welding components with a laser offers many advantages over alternative welding processes:
- Maximum precision and quality thanks to CNC-controlled laser guidance
- Highly economical thanks to automation of the welding process
- Use with a wide variety of materials and alloys
- Processing of various 2D and 3D geometries without restriction
- Minimal distortion due to extremely low thermal influence
Laser cutting
Laser cutting is an extremely efficient process for cutting through various metal parts. BLS helps customers in particular with complex laser cuts with critical tolerances and in the 3D area. The advantages of laser cutting are in particular
- High economic efficiency thanks to extremely high process speeds
- Maximum precision and quality thanks to CNC-controlled laser guidance
- Large variety of materials and alloys that can be processed
- Cutting out 2D and 3D contours without restriction
- No material abrasion or wear due to contactless cutting by heat
Laser metal deposition (LMD)
Laser metal deposition (LMD) is an innovative, additive laser process for processing metal components. BLS provides support in the application of this modern technology, e.g. for the repair of high-quality components or concentrated reinforcement to protect against wear
- Selective and efficient use of high-priced materials and substances
- Maximum precision and quality thanks to CNC-controlled laser guidance
- Fast processing of parts thanks to very high application rates and automated laser guidance
- Can be used flexibly in combination with laser welding and laser cutting
- Minimal distortion and no burn marks or pores due to low heat input
Laser hardening
Laser hardening enables fast and concentrated hardening of metal components. The process offers a high level of efficiency and flexibility in use:
- Complex contours and shapes of a component achievable with the laser
- Maximum possible hardness values depending on the martensite formation of the material
- Maximum accuracy and quality thanks to CNC-controlled, automated laser guidance
- Minimal distortion due to extremely low heat input into the component
- Low costs thanks to short cycle times and high process speeds
Laser marking
- Environmentally friendly: without costly and environmentally harmful consumables
- Gentle on materials: hardly any tool or material wear
- Permanently legible: good readability with high chemical and thermal resistance
- Energy-saving: requires little energy
- Fast: process speeds from 6 to 150 cm/min
- Easy individualisation of components: e.g. via data matrix code
- Reliable traceability over the entire life cycle
