Sustainable laser solutions for key industrial applications: Diode laser specialist Laserline at Photonics West...

At SPIE Photonics West in San Francisco, CA, High Power Diode Laser specialist Laserline, Inc. will be showcasing laser solutions for key industrial applications such as the production of electric copper components, semiconductor processing and the drying of lithium-ion batteries. The technology leader in the field of infrared and blue diode lasers has unique systems such as a blue CW laser with 4 kW output power and a blue 200 W pulse laser in its portfolio.

formnext 2023: Laserline shows sustainable solutions for Cladding and Additive Manufacturing

Diode laser specialist Laserline will be presenting sustainable solutions for the coating of wind turbine bearing bolts and brake discs as well as the additive manufacturing of copper components at formnext 2023. Improvements in energy and material efficiency are just as much in focus as environmental and climate protection as well as resource conservation through reduced process footprint. Interested parties will find Laserline in Hall 12.0, Booth E19.

Battery cell production: Laser drying significantly reduces operating costs and required production space

Up until now, battery electrodes have been dried primarily in gas-operated conveyor furnaces. However, a recently developed approach based on diode lasers is noticeably superior to the convective drying process and for the first time makes it possible to produce laser-dried anodes and cathodes in a roll-to-roll process. A white paper by Laserline and staff from the PEM (Production Engineering of E-Mobility Components) group at RWTH Aachen University highlights the advantages of this diode laser-based electrode drying process and outlines the path to more efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly battery production.

Battery Show 2023: Laserline to exhibit energy-efficient applications for e-mobility

At the Battery Show 2023 Laserline will present energy-efficient solutions for industrial material processing in the field of electromobility. Key topics include copper welding with blue 3 kW cw diode lasers, brake disc cladding to reduce urban particulate pollution, laser drying processes for economical series manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries, and welding applications for sealing battery casings.

Meeting all specifications for brake dust reduction within Euro 7 with diode-laser-based brake disc...

In order to counteract the health hazards posed by particulate matter, the EU has for the first time also included dust from braking systems within the new vehicle emission standard, Euro 7. Diode-laser-clad hard coatings enable reliable compliance with all specifications, reducing brake dust with a maximum particle size of PM10 by up to 90 percent. The series-ready cladding process developed by Laserline enables cost-sensitive mass production for all market segments.

IDEEL Project: Manufacture of laser-dried anodes and LFP cathodes achieved first time in a...

The IDEEL research project aims to introduce a laser drying process as a more climate-friendly and economical method for the volume production of lithium-ion batteries. Within this context, it has now been possible to produce laser-dried anodes and LFP cathodes in a roll-to-roll process for the first time. The innovative manufacturing process significantly reduces energy consumption in electrode production and at the same time enables the drying speed to be doubled.

formnext 2022: Laserline shows diode-laser-based solutions for cladding and additive manufacturing

Highlights of Laserline’s presence at formnext 2022 include cross-material cladding and additive manufacturing processes through application of blue lasers, and infrared-laser-based hard coatings for wear reduction in brake discs. Those interested can find us at Hall 12, Booth B19.

Laserline to exhibit at EuroBLECH 2022: New solutions for aluminum and copper welding

At EuroBLECH 2022 Laserline will exhibit a broad spectrum of diode-laser-based solutions for industrial volume manufacturing. Key topics at the event will be on hot wire aluminum welding, welding of copper with 3 kW cw blue diode lasers, as well as corrosion and wear-resistant coatings, for example as brake disc claddings to reduce urban particulate emissions.

Laser World of Photonics 2022: Laserline showcases the world’s first blue diode laser with...

The Laserline company's presentation at the Laser World of Photonics 2022 focusses on technological innovation. To be presented are the first blue diode laser with 3 kW CW output power and a new high-power-cladding-solution using a 45 kW IR diode laser. The latter was developed in cooperation with the Fraunhofer IWS.

Laser drying of electrode coating in lithium-ion batteries: IDEEL research project aims to scale...

The IDEEL research project, supported by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) as part of the Battery 2020 funding program, aims to launch a laser drying process for a more climate-friendly and economical series production of lithium-ion batteries. The results will be incorporated into the Fraunhofer Research Fab Battery Cells (Forschungsfertigung Batteriezelle) in Münster, Germany, which will enable users from both industry and research to test and optimize the series production of new batteries.

ABOUT LASERLINE GMBH

Laserline GmbH launched its business in 1997 in the German city of Mülheim-Kärlich (close to Koblenz). As a leading international manufacturer of diode lasers for industrial material processing, Laserline has since become the very embodiment of this innovative technology and can look back with pride at 20 years of corporate history. Worldwide, more than 5,000 high-power diode lasers from Laserline are currently in use and have proven their efficiency in a wide range of processes and applications. Currently, the company employs about 340 people and has several international subsidiaries in the USA, Brazil, Japan, China, South Korea and India, as well as representatives in Europe (France, UK, Italy) and in the Asia-Pacific region (Australia, Taiwan). The company is highly focused on sustainable growth. By setting up its headquarters in Mülheim-Kärlich, the spatial conditions for future expansion in terms of development and production were thus laid from the get-go.
