Process: Remote welding of car seat frame with Slab CO2 power 1 - 6kW Industrial sector: Automotive Material: stainless steel 1-4 mm thick Other notes: The Remote Welding System was pioneered by Rofin to take advantage of the superior beam quality of their patented Slab CO2 laser. Remote welding uses a gimbal-mounted mirror to deflect the beam into any position in the focal plane under software control. Spot seam and stitch welds can be accomplished with negligible time wasted repositioning the laser or part. As a consequence remote welding can achieve far higher throughputs for some geometries.
