Abstract
The challenges of transport electrification require the adoption of new manufacturing techniques. Lasers excel in most difficult tasks due to their ability to deliver energy with great precision, and their temporal and spatial control. Dual-beam, adjustable mode beam (AMB) technology enables the versatile spatial control of laser energy deposition, providing wide process windows for defect-free welding and focal spot positioning. The AMB technology improves process quality and speed in dissimilar material welding, copper welding and in structural aluminum welding across many applications in the automotive industry – from the production of batteries and drivetrains to structural body parts.
