The use of laser welding technology in mechanical engineering is still in its early stages.

Together with specialist service providers, Alpha Laser has managed to develop suitable laser devices, which are used more and more often, particularly for repairs:

 

- camshafts, crankshafts

- compressor rotors

- turbine rotors

- gears

- rollers and casing parts

 

Basis materials that can be processed range from GGG 40 up to extremely heat resistant Nickel based alloys.

Due to the limited heat-affected-zone (only tenths of millimeters), formation of coarse grain does not take place. The properties of the basis material remain preserved after welding.

Further advantages are the possibility of welding at room temperature without thermal pre-treatment of the basis material.
