Reduced Ambient Pressure Improves Solid-State Laser Performance & Reduces Spatter By Christian Börner and Klaus Dilger In the German publicly funded research project “LaReD,” investigations are conducted to exploit the potential of high brilliance solid-state lasers and enhance the quality of the joints they produce. This project is being carried out at the Institute of […]

Laser Welding: The Spatter Map
Alexander F. H. Kaplan and John Powell Luleå University of Technology, Dept. Applied Physics and Mechanical Engineering, Sweden Welding defects have to be suppressed to maintain the mechanical strength of a product under load. For suitable choice of the process parameters operating windows can be entered where a certain welding defect can be suppressed. However, […]
