A strong weld does not begin when the arc starts or the laser beam hits the joint. It begins earlier, when the metal su ...

Artificial intelligence-powered large language models (LLM) need to be trained on massive datasets to make accurate predictions—but what if researchers don't have enough of the right type of data?

To improve the laser-welding of thick steel components, Laser Center Hannover (LZH) is developing a new type of process for hybrid laser arc welding with thick wire. When welding thick sheets, large ...

In EU project ALBATROSS, Fraunhofer IWS has developed battery housing for E-vehicles. Laser processes with dynamic beam shaping create stable joints even in challenging material combinations. Recent ...
