LASER TECHNOLOGY FOR AEROSPACE
The aerospace industry is constantly looking for new technologies and manufacturing processes to increase strength and reduce weight to improve the performance and reduce fuel consumption and costs of aircraft, helicopters, and spacecraft. In addition, components in aerospace are often small in size but also labor-intensive and demanding. To meet these challenges, laser technology has been widely adopted in aerospace since its early days. Today, because of the advent of fiber lasers, several proprietary laser devices are used in aerospace.
LASER APPLICATIONS IN AEROSPACE
Laser Cutting
Laser cutting makes it possible to maximize the production of sheet and coil materials by providing the smoothest, most precise cuts possible. This greatly improves material efficiency in aerospace production. Laser cutting equipment provides the cleanest cuts possible, allowing maximum use of all parts in an opaque, controlled environment with fewer moving parts (thus reducing downtime due to equipment failure).
Laser Welding
Laser welding has long been proven to have a wide range of application scenarios in the aerospace industry. High aspect ratio welds can be produced with lower heat input than conventional arc welding processes; in addition, higher productivity and lower distortion are benefited.
Laser Marking
Aerospace laser marking is an accurate and effective way to mark, label or identify aerospace parts. Serial numbers, bar codes, part numbers, labels, lot codes and more can be added to each part. Because parts are easier to identify and classify, aerospace laser marking has become quite common.
THE BENEFITS OF LASER TECHNOLOGY IN AEROSPACE
Meet Your Production Goals
Lasers are available in a variety of power levels that may be scaled to fit a variety of manufacturing needs. Manufacturers are better off using a single high-power laser rather than numerous low-power lasers in most cases because they can reduce footprint and complexity.
Control Quality with a Precise Process
Laser technology is the greatest way to regulate the quality of your production operations because of its unparalleled accuracy. Due to Chutian’s years of experience in customizing industrial laser equipment, we can perfectly integrate the high precision of the laser with other accessories to make the equipment more in line with your production needs.
Adopt a Green Technology
Laser technology meets the goals of the aerospace sector because the five-axis laser head can do 3D machining of tiny parts, improving processing accuracy. At the same time, high power fiber lasers can greatly increase the processing speed, thus ensuring productivity.
