Laser heat treating is a surface modification technique that uses controlled heating and cooling to alter the microstructure of metals. Lasers have the advantage of being able to heat treat specific portions without damaging the complete work piece.
A surface heat treatment technique called laser heat treatment involves heating metal objects with a laser to produce desired surface characteristics. When a metal surface is targeted by a laser, the majority of the laser energy will pass through the metal surface and be absorbed if the laser reflection is overcome.
Heat is quickly transferred from the metal’s surface to its inside as a result of the excited electrons in the metal crashing into the lattice or other electrons. This causes a rapid cooling process, which in turn causes the surface to harden.
The Global Heat Treating Laser System market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
New laser-heating systems are available from Hamamatsu Photonics. Five laser heating systems have been released by Hamamatsu Photonics.
To enable consumers to choose the best laser-heating system for uses including laser soldering of microcomponents for smartphones, plastic welding of vehicle parts, and thermal curing of adhesives to connect incompatible materials, this new series features optimised laser output powers and spot diameters.
Laser thermal processing offers more efficiency at a lower environmental cost than traditional heating techniques, assisting in the reduction of carbon emissions for a more sustainable society.
The primary target market for these laser heating systems is domestic and international producers of electronic devices and automobile parts.
The components of each of the five novel systems are a beam irradiation unit, a laser transmission optical fibre, and an LD irradiation light source. All of them are created and put together to demonstrate the best performance for particular laser thermal processing applications and jobs.
For a variety of thermal processing applications, such as laser soldering, plastic welding, adhesive thermal curing, drying, and hardening, Hamamatsu Photonics designs, develops, produces, and markets LD irradiation light sources.
With the aid of the company’s optical design technology, LD irradiation light sources emit laser beams with a consistent intensity distribution on the irradiated surface, enabling high-quality processing without uneven or irregular heating.
The use of a single optical fibre for processing and measurement is another novel technique that ensures accurate control of processing quality by providing accurate heat information at the laser irradiation site.
