2024-09-30
On August 13, Huanri Laser releasedThe world's first handheld laser welding with swing welding technology to achieve full scene coverage - Hongtong K1M。In the last report, weThe core of K1M full integration is "phosgene separation technology". The full integration solves the problem of mobility from the equipment, but more importantly, it has to solve the long-standing problem of process, which cannot be just a gimmick.Previously, laser welding was like an F1 car, which could only run on the track, but the birth of Hongtong K1M means that we have changed from being able to run at a high speed to being an all-round player who can achieve full road conditions without the track.
Huanri Pioneering"Laser swing welding technology",Completely subvertedIn the past, laser welding could only go straight and narrow,Overcome various non-standard, profiled, wide weld and other problems, realizing real full scene coverage welding.This technological innovation has become the essence of Hongtong K1M, the most important!
The "laser swing welding technology" initiated by Huanri R&D teamFace two challenges:Lightness of welding gun and difficulty of novice operation。To overcome these problems, we have carefully designed the extremely light, short and small welding gun to ensure that the operator can easily control the swing range;At the same time,Learn traditional arc welding,The method of galvanometer swing is used to replace the complicated arc welding method,It greatly reduces the requirements for operator skills, thusCovers full scene welding.
1. Create an extremely light small welding gun, only 300g, to enhance the control feel
The new K1M welding gun is extremely light in volume and weight, only weighing 300g, enhancing the control feel;Optical circuit, gas circuit, silk circuit, electric circuitFour in one armored cable designPVC integrated armored cable is more flexible and labor-saving;The integrated design of collimating mirror and focusing mirror in the gun head has higher welding precision;Wire feeding in the welding gun, throw off the "trouble pipe"It solves the problem of dealing with complex working conditions and any welding angle of any part of the workpiece.
2. Learn traditional techniques and replace the difficult process with galvanometer swing
The secret weapon of K1M is that it can overturn the process limitLearn from traditional welders who move by hand to cover wide welds and special-shaped full scene welds, and use galvanometer swing instead of welders, which requires a long time of learning, practice and difficult to control,Breakthrough use"Controllable laser replaces variable arc, and controllable galvanometer replaces difficult process",This not only keepsThe high speed and high quality standards of laser welding also greatly reduce the difficulty of welding process!
traditionArc welding can only be swung by hand, which is difficult:
The welding of traditional argon arc welding depends entirely on hand swing. The welder needs to control the welding gun with one hand and feed wire with the other. The hand-held welding gun not only needs to keep the correct angle and distance stably, but also needs to swing appropriately according to the thickness and characteristics of the welding materials to ensure the quality of the weld.This is aVery difficult to control processThis completely depends on the manual operation of welders, so the technical requirements for welders are very high.Traditional argon arc welding requires a long period of professional training and experience accumulationMaster the welding characteristics of different materials, and be able to adjust the welding parameters and techniques according to the actual situation.
Oscillation of galvanometer replaces difficult process:
In contrast, the core of our K1M laser swing welding technology is not onlyLearn the traditional hand swing welding technique, more importantly, the innovative adoption ofHard to control process of galvanometer swing replacementThus greatly reducing the difficulty of operation.K1M built-inAll digital galvanometer system, the gun head galvanometer of the welding gun will swing left and right according to the preset mode, and then swing manually to achieve accurate welding.That is to say, you can weld with the welding wire in one hand and the welding gun in the other hand like traditional welding.
It is well known that laser galvanometer has scanning characteristics. Swing is one kind of scanning, and galvanometer is more accurate and balanced,The function of galvanometer greatly reduces the human operation variablesSo that the novice can also realize the laser swing welding skill after simple training.For this reason, we have acquired Eurasia Laser, a leading galvanometer manufacturer in the industry, and integrated the top technology into the development of K1M products to ensure that each equipment can show excellent welding performance and ease of use.
The "laser swing welding technology" created by Huanri,Redefined the process ceiling of laser weldingTo overcome all kinds of non-standard, profiled and wide welds, to achieve full scene coverage and meet all road conditions.K1M makes the laser handheld welding from a racing car that can only run at high speed to an all-round player who can leave the track and apply to all road conditions, greatly broadening the use scene, making it more practical and versatile.This is a revolution in the field of laser welding. K1M is leading the industry towards a broader application prospect。

3. Tackle 6mm wide weld, up to 8mm
In order to break the limitation that laser welding can only be applied to linear narrow weld, make 4mm weld a history and expand the infinite possibility of laser welding.Huanri independently developedSpecial enlarged nozzleThe key to this improvement lies in the design of the special large copper nozzle. We installed a protective nozzle with a larger outer diameter on the basis of the original gun barrel to support the welding gun and make it suitable for swing welding. The larger nozzle can increase the width of the weld to a certain extent.Through K1M laser swing welding technology, a breakthrough was finally made6mmThe wide weld is stably welded, not only that, but also by virtue of the ingenious combination of traditional wire filling and bridging processes, the maximum K1M welding width can reach8mmThus creating a new chapter in wide seam welding.
Wide weld welding not only tests equipment performance, but also requires operators to learn and be familiar with traditional arc welding techniques, such as bridging process and overlap welding process.adoptDeeply understand these processes, and greatly reduce the welding difficulty through the K1M galvanometer swing+hand swing laser swing welding techniqueTherefore, the user can flexibly adjust the welding strategy according to the actual needs, whether it is to pursue a wider weld width or a deeper penetration effect, it can be handy.
▲ K1M adopts laser swing welding for 6.23mm wide weld
Up to538 groupsBuilt in parameters, whose granularity is accurate toTo 0.1mmThe stepless speed regulation function is realized to ensure the fine control in the welding process.
Huanri created the "laser swing welding technology", which not only enhanced the adaptability of the equipment, but also provided users with greater flexibility to deal with various non-standard welding, special-shaped welding, wide weld welding and other complex welding tasks,Breakdown of the original laser welding sceneIn a real sense, let the laser adapt to more new welding scenes, and also truly liberate the productivity.
Imagine that if laser handheld welding can not limit penetration and weld, which welding method will be most affected?The answer is undoubtedly MIG welding and TIG welding.
1. Wire feeding inside the welding gun replaces MIG welding
MIG welding, as one of the current mainstream welding processes, uses the optical fiber coaxial technology, but the quality of MIG welding seam is relatively low;There are few kinds of weldable materials, which are mainly limited to low carbon steel and low alloy steel. The welding effect of high alloy steel such as stainless steel is poor. In addition, the spatter phenomenon is serious. Especially when using thick welding wire, it not only causes material waste, but also poses a safety hazard to the operator. Moreover, its wind resistance is poor, limiting its application in outdoor environments.
In contrast, the emergence of laser handheld welding is like an innovation storm in the welding field.It not only ensuresThe weld surface is smooth and beautiful, moreWide material adaptabilityWhether it is stainless steel, carbon steel or galvanized sheet, it can be easily controlled.The spatter amount is only one tenth of that of MIG welding, significantly improving the safety and cleanliness of the working environment.More importantly, laser handheld welding breaks the constraints of traditional welding, and can be realized no matter in depth of penetration, weld width, or in the face of irregular and non-standard componentsFull scene coverageThis series of advantages will accelerate its replacement process in the MIG welding market and lead the welding technology into a new era.

2. Manual wire filling instead of TIG welding
But can it only replace MIG welding? If so, it will be easier to subvert K1M!
We know that TIG+MIG welding occupies more than half of the market share in the whole welding market. The unique skill of TIG welding is to hold the welding wire and the welding gun in one hand, which is very effective for relatively sophisticated workpieces.However, the limitations of TIG welding are also significant, including slow welding speed, high gas consumption, high wire consumption and low heat input. These characteristics are particularly prominent in consideration of efficiency and cost, which indicates that TIG welding is facing the trend of being gradually replaced in the face of high efficiency and accuracy of laser welding technology.
At present, K1M's first "laser swing welding technology" can be like TIG welding, with welding wire in one hand and welding gun in the otherOn the basis of maintaining the inherent high speed and high quality of laser welding (gas consumption decreases by 90%), the difficulty of welding process is greatly reduced。In this way, K1M naturally entered the TIG welding market, opening a new chapter of laser welding technology in the field of fine welding.
▲ Manual wire feeding with one hand holding the wire and one hand holding the gun, accelerating to replace TIG welding
In this way, K1M has the opportunity to understand the two mainstream welding markets, TIG welding and MIG welding. This kind of imagination space is frightening, and it has pushed the imagination boundary of traditional welding technology to an amazing new height.Driven by the powerful energy of laser,Various processes, including TIG and MIG welding, and even the most economical manual electrode welding, are tending to be unifiedJointly enter a new era of integrated, efficient and diversified welding technology.
The release of K1M is not only a breakthrough at the product level, but also carries a grand vision: in the near future, laser welding will become the leading force in the welding industry, leading the evolution of traditional welding processes towards a more refined and intelligent direction, and ultimately achieving"All arts come from the same source"The grand blueprint of.
