Fiber Laser Welders for Micro Welding



Amada Miyachi America, Inc. has announced its LF Series fiber lasers designed for precision micro welding. The LF Series lasers can be focused to spot sizes down to 10 µm, and offer precise control of pulse width and peak power to control the weld parameters. The lasers are available in either single-mode or multi-mode options. Typical applications include welding of flexure arms on hard disc drives, medical spring attachment and medical component assembly.

"The LF laser specification is based upon Amada Miyachi's experience with the demands of welding small components, and provides a complement to our range of pulsed Nd:YAG lasers," said Dr. Geoff Shannon, Manager Advanced Technology at Amada Miyachi America.

The LF Series lasers feature an internal air to water cooling mechanism, which helps ensure power and pulse to pulse stability, irrespective of ambient air temperature. They may be operated in either modulated or continuous wave mode, and offer features necessary for control of the weld, including pulse shaping with up to 10 segments and seam mode with ramp up and ramp down capabilities. The control interface can be integrated into the laser or provided separately
