A laser delivers optical energy in the form of light and the laser processing tool, also referred to as a “head” or optics, is the actual interface between the laser and the workpiece. The laser processing tool is what enables the laser to actually perform an application. Visotek offers laser processing heads for cleaning, cladding, soldering, brazing and welding applications. We can design and manufacture a solution to your exact process specifications or we will help you find the right solution from another trusted supplier.
Below are examples of customized laser processing tools developed by Visotek.
Product:
MetalPass: Hand-guided laser optic
Application:
A compact tool for treatment of corroded weld zones. Performs 3 laser processes in one single path, utilizing a 2 kW Visotek diode laser. First, contaminates are removed by laser cleaning, second laser cladding deposits a dense and inert layer of Chromium steel and last, powder paint particulate is sprayed on the hot surface for repainting.
