[Case Study] Updating the Laser Oscillator While Utilizing Existing Equipment

Achieved one-third of the equipment renewal cost per unit! Our original optical design allows for the renewal of only the necessary equipment.

This is a case where an automobile manufacturer, considering changing from an old-fashioned YAG laser to a fiber laser for equipment updates, requested proposals to reduce the introduction costs. In the customer's manufacturing line, a large number of laser welding machines were in operation, and each machine had been in use for a certain number of years. Moving forward, updating the laser welding equipment had become an unavoidable issue from a preventive maintenance perspective. We took the time to consider how to keep the overall investment cost low by updating the laser oscillator. By using existing equipment for downstream components like the processing head and only replacing the laser oscillator, we were able to propose a unique optical design that only our company could offer. **Case Overview** - **Challenge:** Improve efficiency in the laser welding process and reduce running costs. - **Solution:** Proposed equipment that enables optical coupling of different types of fibers with varying core diameters between the laser oscillator and downstream equipment like the processing head. - **Result:** Achieved a one-third reduction in equipment update costs per unit. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.*
