Innovative Laser Welding Technology To Set New Standards
Laser Photonics Corporation (NASDAQ: LASE) (“LPC”), a leading global developer of industrial laser systems for cleaning and other material processing applications, and its recently acquired subsidiary, Control Micro Systems, Inc. (CMS), announced the expansion of their Clear on Clear Plastic Welding technology development project.
John Armstrong, Executive Vice President of LPC, commented:
“Combining CMS’s expertise with our R&D initiatives allows us to further develop cutting-edge Clear on Clear Plastic Welding technology to meet the stringent demands of multiple sectors,” said John Armstrong, Executive Vice President of LPC. “We are excited to continue pushing the boundaries of what is possible with laser technology as we work toward setting new standards in several industries.”
Laser welding continues to replace ultrasonic welding as the method of choice to permanently bond polymer parts. Utilizing laser technology, Clear on Clear Plastic Welding joins transparent plastics together seamlessly with a level of precision that is critical for medical device manufacturers.
Clear on Clear Plastic Welding systems by CMS offer numerous advantages, including minimal thermal impact, precise control over the weld area, and the ability to create aesthetically appealing welds without the need for additional adhesives or fasteners. Control Micro System’s Class I Clear on Clear Plastic Welding systems use off-axis machine vision to detect fiducials, determine processing locations, and verify welds.
CMS, with decades of experience, developed automated Clear on Clear Plastic Welding technology to provide a high-speed process for welding clear plastic materials. These systems can be configured for standalone operation or integrated into existing SMT lines. They are ideal for welding medical plastics and other clear materials while providing a flexible manufacturing process for both production and R&D.
Leveraging Control Micro System’s specialized expertise, LPC is channeling resources into R&D in the laser plastic welding manufacturing area, aligning with its comprehensive diversification strategy. This move aims to enhance shareholder value and build resilience in evolving markets.
