Amada Miyachi America, a manufacturer of resistance welding, laser welding, marking, cutting and micro machining equipment and systems, has added four new higher power models to the LF Series range of fibre laser welders. The addition of the new models will address thicker materials or increase processing speed for a given application. The company now offers an LF Series fibre laser in power levels ranging from 250W to 1,000W in the same form factor and with the same features. With the precise control needed for small component welding and fine precision cutting of metals, the LF Series fibre lasers are suitable for micro spot welding, seam welding and precision cutting. They are also an option for medical spring attachment and medical component assembly, as well as battery tab welding. The LF Series offers continuous wave and modulated fibre laser technology with both single mode and multi-mode options. Featuring a large touchscreen pendant that enables clear visibility of process schedule parameters, the LF Series has an intuitive interface that offers users quick and easy programming. All models in the series enable spot sizes down to 10 microns for thin metal welding, with welding penetration depth beyond 4mm (0.16") in metals. Their power stability provides reliable results. The new models incorporate the most recent enhancements to the LF Series, including a new chiller updated to accommodate laser engines with up to 1kW of average power. This additional capacity improves performance in hot environments. Several other chiller design changes make routine maintenance easier.
