Automotive Manufacturing
Laser light and the automotive industry are closely tight together. High-powered laser-based manufacturing plays a key role in automotive welding, cutting, brazing, marking and cleaning. Understanding and ensuring the quality of the laser beam is the first step towards high product quality and sustainable processes.
Automotive Production

When using multi-kilowatt lasers in the automotive manufacturing environment, even slight deviations in the location of the focal point or minor variance of laser power exert a massive effect on the entire processes. Because of this, measuring the laser parameters is not only important when a laser system is developed or produced, it is equally as important once the system is deployed for production. Ideally, the laser beam is monitored continuously during the manufacturing processes. And even if the production of bad parts gets traced back to a laser-based manufacturing machine, it is essential to know what happened with the beam.
