For buyers of laser processing equipment, preventing burn-through on thin-walled materials is a top concern during welding. This issue often stems from excessive heat input, but with proper equipment settings and techniques, it can be effectively avoided.
 
Optimize Laser Processing Equipment Parameters
 
The core solution lies in adjusting key parameters of laser processing equipment. Lower the laser power appropriately and increase the welding speed to reduce the heat contact time between the beam and the material. Pulsed laser mode is more suitable than continuous wave mode here—it delivers energy in short bursts, limiting heat accumulation and minimizing the risk of burn-through.
 
Adopt Suitable Welding Aids and Techniques
 
Using filler wires matching the base material adds thickness to the weld seam, which helps distribute heat evenly. Additionally, laser processing equipment equipped with gas nozzles can blow inert gas (such as argon) to protect the weld pool, reducing oxidation and stabilizing the welding process. Fixtures with good thermal conductivity can also dissipate excess heat quickly.
 
Key Buying Tips
 
When selecting laser processing equipment, prioritize models with flexible parameter adjustment and pulse waveform customization. These features allow precise control over heat input, which is critical for thin-walled material welding.
 
By combining the right equipment settings with auxiliary methods, laser processing equipment can achieve high-quality welds on thin-walled materials without burn-through issues.
