New blue high-brilliance lasers for welding the finest sheet metal structures as well as solutions for implementing more sustainable and efficient machining processes - these are the focal points of Laserline's appearance at Schweißen & Schneiden 2025 from September 15 to 19 in Essen. The trade fair highlight is the new diode laser systemLDFblue 800-wbc.
Blue diode laser for copper welding to cladding
The LDFblue 800-wbc combines LDF technology with the blade engine from WBC Photonics. The laser offers an exceptional beam quality of 4 mm-mrad and is available with 400 or 800 watts of output power. Thanks to its high brilliance, the system is particularly suitable for spatter-free welding of thin sheets with thicknesses of 100 to 200 µm while maintaining high process stability, to which the robust, IoT-capable system architecture also contributes. Laserline will also be showcasing an LDMblue 1800-30 with blue scanner optics and copper welding patterns.
Energy-efficient surface treatment
The trade fair portfolio also includes systems for industrial surface treatment such as heat treatment, paint curing, powder and polymer coatings and cladding. For example, Laserline will be presenting energy-efficient solutions for the environmentally friendly series coating of brake disks. The focus here is on the 30 kW diode laser, which enables significantly shorter process times thanks to its high performance class. Both sides of the brake disk can be processed simultaneously. This leads to more even heating of the workpiece and reduces the risk of deformation.
High power applications
The powerful hybrid solution Active Process Fiber (APF) for demanding industrial applications is suitable for processes such as cutting, remote welding, coating and heat treatment where a very small focus and high laser power are required.
