As the advocate that in production of car structural member use laser solders, the achievement of German masses Motor Corporation is envy making a person undoubtedly. According to Dr. Klaus Loeffler (German masses Motor Corporation solders craft chief inspector) in what by Mixiegen the university organizes dozenth a seminar of application of year car laser is medium the speech claims, the masses is in early already used automobile body to make 1993 on, and first mass production application is the roof that has in 96 years solders. Arrive 97 years, already 3 models have the roof that laser beam welding receives. As the elapse of time, more models joined this procession with more applied methods. Say according to Dr. Klaus Loeffler, nowadays, want to say the assembly of which kinds of model used most laser to make a technology, should belong to popular Golf V undoubtedly so. This model has overall length to amount to juncture of 70 meters laser beam welding unexpectedly, this has to make a person uncannily. Do not have which kinds of model to be able to be compared with its. So whether did this mean spot welding to had disappeared from inside Golf model? Not, loeffler answer says, golf V model still has about 1, 400 spot welding (under photograph comparing, the spot welding of Golf IV model is amounted to 4, 608, and laser beam welding receives overall length to have 1 only.

4 meters) , arc welding is received (7 meters) with adhesive (30 meters) . He admits, golf V model actually " still be design jumping-off place with spot welding more or less " , when this means below development one model, the company will have a space to undertake farther structure is improved (Golf V and photograph of its predecessor model are compared, the static state that added to exceed 80% is fought twist stiffness, the trends of more than 15% is fought twist stiffness, with the dynamic deflection of more than 35% ) and decrease heavy processing (stimulative plate of reductive brim width decreases in great quantities) . The masses does not use laser at soldering only, still apply at drill rod solder and cut respectively. In factory of popular Wolfe Si Bao, e.g. , have Nd:Y of 150 4 kilowattAG laser (show according to Trumpf data) , nd:Y of a 1 kilowattAG laser (show according to Trumpf data) , connect of 250 laser beam welding, with head of 3 Laser Cutting. Although the masses uses the advantage of laser to basically be reflected,be in factory of Wolfe Si Bao, loeffler say, but laser equipment has however in whole group use, no matter these factories are,be in low cost area or be in high cost area. Consequently, you can be in can see them in each areas of south Africa from Belgium. Caption: Golf of the Five Dynasties: The laser beam welding of 70m is received make its extraordinary. Car with horary the speed production of 100 working procedure. Undoubted, normal movement of production is very important. But, loeffler thinks this is already unchallenged, estimation is normal moving rate already was exceeded 99% . "Keep efficient in order to win time " . Ought to notable is, equipment operates personnel neither scientist, also not be optical engineer, they just had accepted equipment to operate groomed Everyman. Operating personnel fluent to the operation in spent importance speech, loeffler say, "The worker must feel is they owned these systems " . Although perhaps he says endless and objective, his appearance says laser is handled is " the working procedure that reliance is worth most in our factory, " say, "These technologies already by test and verify. " . Automobile body solders the one big gain of use laser system is equipment those who have a day to be born is powerful and flexible. For example, the masses developed a kind of structure platform that owns 14 laser facility, can solder for Golf not only (5, 340mm) with copper facing (3, 400mm) , in still can handling VW model small to Lupo (" 3 liter " car, so because 100km of its every travel needs bad news fuel to make an appointment with 3 liter,saying is) arrive greatly Touareg SUV (the when protecting nimble in Cayenne Motor Corporation, laser solders to also be used at Touareg batholith joining together) . The dot written complaint with structural similar to the requirement comparing of area area platform solders equipment wants little 40% . Additional, loeffler points out, the laser generator that also can use a certain platform is offerred for congener platform lade / fixed / uninstall the job, because this can make full use of,machine equipment. Along advocate product line configures laser robot. Loeffler says no less than they undertook laser of 4 kilowatt YAG standardizing, they at the same time normative also of the laser head that provides clamping apparatus use (clamping apparatus type includes: Annulus state clamping apparatus, double round clamping apparatus, run from opposite directions round of clamping apparatus, still sheet points to form and double show clevis is provided) . Same, its advantage is to be able to make equipment processes the other product that differs with existing product very easily. Additional, change product time to also be able to shorten lowest. Another problem that the car creates is problem of tolerancepublic errand overlay. Go up in this bit, golf and other model are same. Loeffler says this problem has been solved, used a cell when installing plate of the bumper before installation for example, can undertake to automobile body optics is measured in order to determine size, upright incision is enough before catching laser to be in long course, next installing plate accurate reach the designated position the ground solders go up. Loeffler will appearance is " the laser component that makes a person gasp in admiration most " , this appearance has not been been. Although laser technology is not cheap, according to the speculation of Loeffler, can call in after 4 years expectant investment. VW increases greatly on the amount of laser equipment not only (already acquired at present 450, this has preceded far at business of other automobile factory) , and the look of Loeffler has been cast to next generation laser equipment. He is seeking the facility of a kind of 6kw, its efficiency can be amounted to 20% , quality of beam of light achieves 6mm*mrad, can be in be as long as convey neatly in the cable of 100m, normal run time is amounted to 99.

9% , and repair time not to exceed 30 minutes. Loeffler alludes incidentally what he is engaged in for a long time all the time is plastic cut and welder are made. Perhaps, VW can be in what plastic data sees inside his workshop solder in the future setting. CNC Milling
