At Coherent, we hear it all the time. Automotive and other high-volume OEMs tell us that line-to-line inconsistencies in their 바카라 도박 welding systems drives them crazy.
The bottom line is this: manufacturers strive for uniform global production processes to minimize cost and, most importantly, safety and recall risks. In a production utopia, they would set up a new assembly line, integrate a 바카라 도박 and always get the same results. This means that every part or vehicle they make – regardless of location and date of manufacture – looks and functions identically.
If different welding 바카라 도박 don’t perform in exactly the same way using identical settings, manufacturers must spend time and money “fine-tuning” each laser and process recipe to achieve consistent results between production lines. Plus, manufacturers want to readily disseminate process improvements that they’ve developed to all their facilities globally without a need to deploy experts to “fine-tune” each line.
The exceptional output consistency of Coherent ARM 바카라 도박 greatly simplifies implementation for automotive manufacturers.
Coherent ARM Fiber 바카라 도박 Ensure Consistency & Repeatability
Why do manufacturers come to 바카라 도박 with this problem? Because our unique, patent protectedCoherent ARM FL Fiber 바카라 도박design ensures the necessary consistency. With our ARM Fiber 바카라 도박, no fine tuning or compensation of the process recipe is required from 바카라 도박-to-바카라 도박 or plant-to-plant.
How do we accomplish what other fiber laser makers can’t? Our ARM Fiber 바카라 도박 are designed from the outset to deliver the operational accuracy and consistency necessary to achieve low unit cost, high yield manufacturing without extraordinary effort. They ensure that, once a process recipe is developed, the laser will faithfully reproduce it in real-world use. Every individual unit will deliver consistent performance in the same way – day after day, and line to line.
How good are we really talking about? The graph shows actual test data for the output power of 90 different Coherent ARM Fiber 바카라 도박. Each was set to deliver 2.575 kW. The standard deviation in power readings, measured with an external power meter, was 5.4 W – only 0.2%. This means that all these 바카라 도박 would produce virtually identical results for a given welding task. Again, this ensures that a process recipe will be faithfully reproduced over time and across multiple 바카라 도박.
Test results from 90 separate Coherent FL-ARM 바카라 도박 shows an extraordinary level of unit-to-unit output power consistency.
To achieve this high level of consistency, Coherent has implemented multiple features within the ARM architecture. One key feature is our patent-protected (USA, Europe, S. Korea, Japan, China) independent control of ring and center beam power – supported by highly sophisticated, separate closed-loop power control for each. The 바카라 도박 employs numerous sensors to measure and control the actual output power for each waveguide and continuously adjust it, thus maintaining extremely consistent welding performance.
Power control for high-speed applicat바카라 도박s requires very robust and fast control systems. In copper welding, for example, to maintain our industry-leading penetrat바카라 도박 depth consistency of 2% – even for very thin sheets – standard microprocessor control is no longer fast enough.
One way we increase the response of the ARM laser control electronics is by incorporating the same high-speed Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technology that is enabling 5G telecom. This facilitates precision monitoring at not just one, but at the many wavelengths of light that 바카라 도박 generate and encounter from the process.
At such high power, speed, and control, we must also employ some of the most sophisticated laser protection systems on the market. Passive back reflection protection is today largely considered “old news” for fiber 바카라 도박. But the traditional approach used by the rest of the laser industry – namely, to simply reduce laser output power when back reflections are detected – is insufficient for applications that demand high precision, yields, and repeatability. This is particularly true when welding copper and other bright materials.
Instead, our ARM laser cavity uses our own, IP-protected single resonator technology with an integrated, five-stage protection scheme. This approach delivers better stability and less operational sensitivity than the MOPA designs which some lower-cost systems rely on. In the case of ARM 바카라 도박, this level of stability and protection truly enables the optimal production performance for our customers.
The unmatched output consistency and back reflection immunity of Coherent ARM Fiber 바카라 도박 enables automakers and other high-volume OEMs to meet their most demanding welding challenges head-on.
