Laser Welding Pulse Shaping

Laser Welding Pulse Shaping

Square

A universal wave form where the set energy is delivered for the set time, ideal for all types of metals.

Slope Up

Using this waveform the first 20% of the set time provides a gradual increase in the energy until it reaches the set value, ideal for highly reflective metals.

Slope Down

Using this waveform the last 20% of the set time provides a gradual decrease to 0, ideal for opaque or poorly reflecting metals.

Trapezoid

This waveform is a combination of the previous two, ideal for silver-rich metals.

Pulsed

Using this waveform the energy is generated as a chain of pulses for greater piercing effect, ideal for all metals.
