Laser Welding & Marking
Overview
Laser Welding
Laser welding is a high-precision technique that uses a focused laser beam to join materials, often metals or thermoplastics.
This process is ideal for applications requiring narrow, deep welds with minimal heat-affected zones. At PMMI, our laser welding technology allows us to produce clean, strong, and precise welds suitable for components that require exacting standards of strength and durability.
-
Process Details: During laser welding, a high-intensity laser beam generates concentrated heat, melting the material at the targeted points of contact. This allows us to join materials with a controlled and precise approach, significantly reducing the risk of thermal distortion. PMMI’s laser welding capabilities support a wide range of materials, including stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, and specialized alloys.
-
Applications: Laser welding is widely used in industries where precision and strength are critical. In the medical field, laser welding is ideal for creating seamless, hygienic joints in surgical instruments and medical devices. In aerospace, it’s used for components that require high structural integrity, while automotive applications benefit from its durability and resistance to stress.
-
Benefits: Laser welding provides several advantages over traditional welding methods. It allows for:
-
Minimal Heat Distortion: The focused nature of the laser beam minimizes the heat-affected zone, reducing the risk of material warping. This can provide benefit for complicated assemblies where TIG or MIG may not be an option.
-
High-Strength Welds: The resulting welds are strong and durable, ideal for components subjected to mechanical or environmental stresses.
-
Precision and Consistency: Laser welding produces consistently accurate welds, even on complex or small parts, enhancing product reliability.
Laser Marking
Laser marking is a non-contact, high-precision process that uses a focused beam of light to create permanent marks on
various materials. PMMI’s laser marking services deliver durable and legible markings, ideal for industries requiring
traceability, branding, or identification on components that must endure challenging conditions.
-
Process Details: The laser marking process works by using a concentrated light beam to alter the surface of the material. This can involve techniques such as engraving, annealing, or etching, depending on the material and desired outcome. PMMI’s laser marking system can handle a wide variety of materials, including stainless steel, aluminum, plastics, titanium, and more.
-
Applications: Laser marking is essential for industries where clear, long-lasting identification is critical. In the medical device industry, for example, components need to be permanently marked with serial numbers, lot codes, or other identifying details to ensure traceability. The aerospace and automotive sectors also rely on laser marking for part numbers and logos that must remain legible through harsh environments and frequent handling.
-
Benefits:
-
Permanent Markings: The markings are highly resistant to wear, able to withstand repeated handling, nitric passivation, and exposure to extreme conditions.
-
High Precision: Laser marking allows for precise, fine details, ensuring that even small text or complex logos are crisp and clear while holding tight tolerances.
-
Versatility: PMMI’s laser marking capabilities allow us to work with a variety of materials and marking styles, making it adaptable for diverse industries and applications.
