The past year has been the most difficult year for China's laser industry. Multiple global epidemics, local military conflicts, and Sino-Western trade frictions and disputes have inhibited and limited the rapid recovery and improvement of the global economy, resulting in a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises suffering from survival difficulties. After a difficult year, will the domestic laser industry usher in the next spring?
Laser is a "universal tool", known as "the fastest knife", "the most accurate ruler", "the brightest light". After half a century of development, a number of technologies related to laser applications have made vigorous development. However, in the past few years, laser welding has not been well paid attention to. However, in recent years, with the rapid increase in demand for laser welding in several major fields such as automobiles, batteries, optical communications, electronic manufacturing, and sheet metal, the market size of laser welding has gradually expanded.
The year 2023 is the first year for the full implementation of the spirit of the Party's 20 National Congress, a key year for the implementation of the 14th Five-Year Plan, and an important year for the start of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. At the same time, 2023 is the year of recovery after the end of the epidemic, and all industries are waiting for prosperity. In this environment, Taihe Laser believes that the industrial laser welding market is also expected to restore vitality. Among them, laser welding machine is in the dividend period, the market size will continue to expand rapidly, is expected to become the fastest growing application field in the next 5 to 10 years. According to relevant data, the laser welding equipment industry market size will exceed 30 billion in 2025.
Laser welding is the use of laser beam excellent directivity and high power density and other characteristics of the work, through the optical system to focus the laser beam in a small area, in a very short time to be welded to form a high energy highly concentrated heat source area, so that the solder to be melted and formed a solid solder joints and welds.
01 Advantages of laser welding machine
Laser welding is currently the most advanced welding method in the field of processing, compared with traditional welding technology, laser welding technology is non-contact welding, the operation process does not need pressure, with fast welding speed, high strength, large depth, small deformation, narrow weld, small heat affected zone, and small deformation of the workpiece, less follow-up processing workload, reduce manual output. High flexibility, more security and other advantages.
Laser welding technology can be used to weld refractory materials such as high melting point metals to the parts that are difficult to access for welding, implementing flexible transmission non-contact welding. The laser beam can achieve time and energy splitting, and can process multiple beams at the same time, providing conditions for more precise welding.
02 Application range of laser welding
Applied to, machinery manufacturing: mechanical and electrical parts welding, connector bearing repair; Auto and motorcycle parts: laser processing for flying contact processing, no pollution to the product, high speed, more suitable for the needs of high-end automotive consumer goods production process; Kitchen and bathroom: laser welding precision has a good appearance, so it has a wide range of applications in high-grade stainless steel bathroom products laser welding; Hardware doors and Windows: instruments, sensors, door and window group welding to welding, mold production and use of mold repair and change; Electrical parts: Because laser processing is a non-contact processing method, it does not produce mechanical extrusion or mechanical stress, which is more in line with the processing requirements of the electronics industry; Industries such as metal processing, sheet metal processing and batteries.
In the development of laser cutting processing, Taihe Laser is constantly enriching laser welding and intelligent manufacturing solutions. According to the diversified needs of customers, we provide customized equipment research and development, design, production, assembly, commissioning, after-sales and automation equipment integration of the whole process services, to help customers improve production efficiency, productivity and profitability. Finally, please believe that domestic laser cutting and welding equipment, believe that Taihe laser, the future can be expected.
