IPG’s flexible laser sources weld EV batteries without spatter

IPG has introduced new adjustable mode beam (AMB) fiber laser sources that enable high-precision processing for electric vehicle applications. Available as either single-mode or multimode configurations with dynamic and independent control of the core and ring beams, these flexible laser sources enable high-speed, spatter-free welding for critical components in the EV battery manufacturing process.

Additionally, new air-cooled AMB laser sources with quasi-continuous wave capability provide pulses of 10 times peak power for processing sensitive materials with low heat input.
