Laser Integration

In the UK, industrial automation specialist Orwin International of Crowther has integrated a laser from JK Laser of Rugby into its twin station laser welding system. The system was designed to assemble and weld elements within a multicell battery. Orwin designed and manufactured two welding stations that use the laser’s time share facility. The new feature can speed up manufacturing processes and reduce cost, while enabling two welding operations to be carried out on two separate cells from a single laser source.
