Advancement of Laser Micro-Welding

Abstract:

Recently, laser welding has been in its infancy primarily used for exotic applications where no other welding process would be suitable. In recent era, industrial product parts and components are produced at a minute-scale for sustainable manufacturing, creating a growing need for micro-welding applications. In this regards, laser processing is more likely considered to be the method of choice as it allows precise heat control compared with other parallel methods. This paper presents the operating principle of laser device. In line with this it puts forth a review on advancement of Laser welding/Laser Micro-Welding. At the end, it concludes with description of benefits manufacturing engineers would obtain.
