Efficient Joining of Transparent Plastics with 2-µm Lasers
Laser transmission welding is a tried and trusted process for joining thermoplastics safely and precisely. But what should you do if both joining partners are optically transparent? In this case, welding with 2-µm lasers offers an effective solution. Thanks to the higher absorption properties of many plastics at this wavelength, the material is melted locally and the parts can be joined in a stable way.
Advantages, Materials, and Innovative Techniques
In our expertise, you will discover how this technology works compared with conventional 1-µm lasers, what advantages it offers, and which materials it is particularly effective with. We will highlight the challenges involved in welding transparent plastics and demonstrate how innovative optical designs and customized clamping techniques can be used to get optimum welding results.
