A New Approach to Laser Welding: BVS Blechtechnik Invests in Three New Systems
Anyone who welds knows that moment. The seam isn’t right, the rework begins, and the clock is ticking. That’s exactly the moment we wanted to significantly reduce in our production process.
At BVS Blechtechnik, we have specifically expanded our laser welding capabilities with three new systems. This was not done for any single reason, but rather to meet a variety of requirements. After all, our customers’ components are as diverse as the tasks they serve. High-volume production, complex geometries, or small production runs each require their own specific solutions.
Three Technologies for Different Needs
The Trumpf TruLaser Weld 5000 is used wherever maximum repeatability is essential. This turnkey robotic welding system offers a significant enhancement thanks to FusionLine technology. Gaps of up to 1 mm can be reliably closed without having to specially adapt components for laser welding. This makes the process suitable for a significantly wider range of components, while maintaining consistently high quality from part to part.
The Amada FLW-Le is designed for applications that require both precision and tight tolerances. The robotic fiber laser welding cell utilizes patented WEAVING technology. An oscillating laser beam reliably and quickly bridges even irregular gap dimensions without compromising seam quality. An integrated camera system detects deviations even before the first weld spot is made, significantly reducing the effort required.
The BlueLaserTools Blumodular 2000 complements automated systems wherever maximum flexibility is required. This water-cooled handheld laser welding machine delivers laser precision exactly to the areas a robot cannot reach. Typical applications include prototypes, small production runs, complex or hard-to-reach geometries, and repairs. Two handpieces for different seam requirements and a triple safety system ensure reliable results. The system is developed and manufactured in Germany.
What this means for our customers in concrete terms
With these three systems, we have the right solution for a variety of requirements. Together, they cover virtually the entire spectrum of laser welding, from high-volume production to individual parts and from simple gap dimensions to complex visible welds.
The benefits are evident in everyday use. Less rework, shorter turnaround times, and more components that can be produced cost-effectively.
Laser welding was long considered a specialized field. At BVS Blechtechnik, it is now an integral part of our manufacturing process.
