Handbook of Laser Welding Technologies - 9780857092649

Laser welding is a rapidly developing technology that has found increasing applications in manufacturing due to its versatility. It allows the precision welding of small areas, and is particularly suitable for operation under computer or robotic control. This book reviews the latest developments in the field and how they can be applied in a variety of fields.

Part one provides an introduction to the fundamentals of laser welding before moving on to explore developments in established technologies including CO2 laser welding, disk laser welding and laser micro welding technology. The middle sections highlight laser welding technologies for various materials including aluminium and titanium alloys, plastics and glass and focus on developments in emerging laser welding technologies with chapters on the applications of robotics in laser welding and developments in the modelling and simulation of laser and hybrid laser welding. The conclusion explores applications of laser welding in the automotive, railway and shipbuilding industries.
