Energy couplingHigh reflectivity and conductivity can narrow the stable window; rated power alone does not define penetration or speed.Test the actual spot, focus, speed, pulsed or continuous mode and shielding conditions.
Thin parts and heat flowFoil and thin sheet can be sensitive to distortion, burn-through, spatter or edge heat damage.Inspect cross-sections, distortion, edges, spatter and heat accumulation during continuous runs.
Surface and acceptanceOxide, oil, anodizing or plating can change absorption and appearance.Agree the cleaning state and the applicable appearance, resistance, strength or functional tests before release.

Record during sample validation

  • Material purity or grade, thickness and surface treatment
  • Joint or contour, fit-up, fixture and heat-sinking condition
  • Spot, focus, speed, wire/shielding and extraction configuration
  • Cross-section, distortion, appearance, spatter and required functional tests

FAQ

Common project questions

What information should we send first?

Please provide the material grade, dimensions, drawings, photos, required quality, production rate and any existing inspection standard.

Can Aogeo Laser test our real samples?

Yes. Sample validation is used to define the process window, compare technical routes and confirm the appropriate platform before final configuration.

How is the laser source and power selected?

Selection depends on absorption, thickness, feature size, heat input, quality and takt time. Power is one parameter inside the complete process window.

Can the system connect to an existing line?

Yes. The project can include robots, handling, vision, inspection, PLC, recipes, serial-number binding and MES or database interfaces.
