Application of Laser Technology in Automobile Field
Since the early 1980s, the automotive industry has been one of the main drivers of the high-power laser industry. This industry has strict requirements on the quality and reliability of laser sources. Compared to traditional manufacturing techniques, laser technology can bring greater benefits in the areas of cutting, welding and marking. Because 18650 laser pointer technology is more flexible than traditional technology and easy to automate, it can meet the core requirements of the entire industry. In the beginning, the laser was only used for simple cylindrical part welding, such as the automatic transmission components of a vehicle. Nowadays, lasers have been widely used in the process of processing the entire vehicle structure. Roof welding, door welding, three-dimensional cutting of hydroformed parts, door spring annealing, instrument panel welding, marking, etc. are just a few examples of a large number of laser applications. With the development of lightweight vehicles, new materials, new structures and new processes are constantly emerging, and the safety performance of automobiles is continuously improved.
Laser ranging technology is the first laser technology to be practically applied in the military. In the late 1960s, laser rangefinders began to be equipped with troops, which were widely used for reconnaissance surveys and weapon fire control systems because of their ability to quickly and accurately measure target distances. Laser guided weapons have high precision, simple structure, and are not susceptible to electromagnetic interference, and they play an important role in precision guided weapons. The astronomy laser pointer communication has large capacity, good confidentiality and strong anti-electromagnetic interference capability. Optical fiber communication has become the development focus of communication systems. Airborne, spaceborne laser communication systems and laser communication systems for submarines are also under development.
A tactical laser weapon made of a high-power laser can blind the human eye and disable the photodetector. stage. Anti-satellite and anti-continental ballistics using high-energy laser beams may destroy military targets such as aircraft, missiles, and satellites. The application of strategic laser weapons that are close to practical missiles is still in the exploratory stage. Due to the small laser spot, high energy density, and fast cutting speed, laser cutting can achieve better cutting quality and extremely high cutting speed and efficiency, while reducing tool wear. The use of laser welding materials can avoid deformation, increase the type of welding materials, eliminate environmental factors, high quality and efficiency.
The use of military laser pointer technology welding, its advantages are extremely high welding speed, stable welding quality, high welding precision, small thermal deformation of materials, and easy to integrate into the automation operating system, which is widely used in modern industrial production, with excellent reputation. Advanced welding methods. Laser welding has been widely used in automobiles, such as welding of automobile bodies, pipe welding, welding of automobile batteries, and plastic welding of instrument panels. Lasers have unique advantages in terms of welding strength and welding precision and speed.
Laser cutting is also one of the most frequently used laser applications. Fiber lasers and CO2 lasers can be combined with standardized 2D and 3D cutting systems to cut low carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum and other metals. When processing different parts of a car, car manufacturers take advantage of the advantages of laser cutting, such as high cutting edge quality, low heat input, and fast processing speed. Automotive parts and materials, including a variety of metals, such as airbag fabrics and composite materials used in automotive interiors, are cut using a laser. As a flexible processing tool, the laser can be easily integrated into robots and other automation devices and provides solutions for the cutting of various automation components and materials.
In addition to traditional processes such as laser cutting and laser welding, lasers can also be used in a variety of surface treatment applications such as 532nm laser pointer hardening, laser de-layering, surface activation, and laser surfacing. In the laser surfacing process, the most well-known is laser cladding. The basic materials such as metal wire or powder can be melted by laser radiation to achieve metallurgical bonding. The dilution rate of the metal of the parent component is less than 5%. . The automotive processing industry usually uses powder for laser surfacing, which can be used as a protective film for workpieces to prevent wear and corrosion, as well as high temperature and corrosion resistance (liquid). In the automotive industry, the minimum distortion rate and high flexibility of the workpiece are two important criteria. Thermal microcracking and porosity are also avoided due to reduced heat input and the use of additive materials.
