Abstract

We report on a new generation of laser scanners and their utilization with a 24 kW CW laser at BPP 4 mm*mrad equipped with BrightLine Weld beam shaping functionality. Herewith, excellent weld seam quality, large welding depth, high welding speed and a large working distance are achieved. Those advantages are demonstrated with application results involving keyhole welding of copper.
