In our life, kitchen and bathroom are inseparable. Modern kitchen and bathroom includes ceiling, kitchen and bathroom furniture, integrated cabinets, bathroom cabinets, smart home appliances, bathroom heaters, ventilation fans, lighting systems, integrated stoves and other kitchen and bathroom related products. The traditional welding method in the kitchen and bathroom industry is mainly artificial argon arc welding. This welding method has many disadvantages, such as: difficult to recruit workers, difficult to manage labor, high labor costs, low yield, poor safety, low aesthetics, low degree of automation, etc. Laser welding can effectively solve these problems.
The advantages of using handheld laser welding in the kitchen and bathroom industry:
1. Reduce the overall cost: the initial purchase cost of the hand-held laser welding machine is relatively high, and the service life of the hand-held laser welding machine is more than 10 years. Some enterprises have recovered the cost within half a year after purchasing the laser welding machine. In the next 9 years or so, it will be fully profitable. Even if a laser welding machine will experience wear and tear during use, there will be maintenance costs, which is to be expected.
2. Solve the problem of difficult personnel management: the handheld laser welding machine operates according to the program pre-designed by the engineer, and there is no problem of difficult personnel management. If the program fails, engineers can replace it.
3. Solve the problem of difficult recruitment: the handheld laser welding machine only needs a small number of machine operators, saving a lot of manual operators.
4. Solve the safety problem: the hand-held laser welding machine is machine welding, without manual welding, which improves the safety of personnel.
5. Improve the yield rate of products: the hand-held laser welding machine operates according to the pre-tested power and speed, which greatly improves the yield rate of products, and is not affected by the welder's operating skills.
6. Solve the aesthetic problem: the hand-held laser welding machine works completely according to the preset program, and the welded products have high aesthetics and high consistency.
7. Improve product production efficiency: the handheld laser welding machine works according to the preset program, and is not affected by external factors such as operators. Under certain conditions, night work is no problem.
8. Improve the degree of automation: the handheld laser welding machine works according to the preset program, which greatly improves the degree of automation.
The emergence of handheld laser welding machines just makes up for the shortcomings of traditional welding. The handheld laser welding machine adopts an integrated structure, with built-in integrated control system, laser system and cooling system and other mechanisms; the handheld welding torch replaces the previous fixed optical path, and the welding station can be deployed without erecting equipment. It occupies a small space and can realize outdoor welding ; The hand-held welding head is flexible and convenient. According to market demand, a variety of suitable welding tips have been developed to support spot welding, lap welding, fillet welding and other welding methods. It is suitable for rapid welding of various metals such as carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, galvanized sheet, galvanized sheet, brass, and red copper.
