Laser Welding System

More than sixty years in the plastics joining industry have provided Branson Ultrasonics Corp. with the knowledge and expertise needed to meet the specialized requirements of the markets we serve. In order to provide our customers with the most innovative and cost effective solutions Branson continually explores new methods of joining plastics. Recognizing that laser welding is becoming one of the most anticipated means of joining plastics... Radiance?/SUP> 3G Radiance?/SUP> 3I Branson proudly introduces the newest additions to our Laser product line, the Radiance 3G and 3I. Unmatched performance and flexibility in a completely modular system approach. Laser bank features a new closed loop control system. Flexibility and ease of integration is a key principal in the design of the Radiance 3G/3I laser bank. SmartFiber optic bundle provides high-efficiency power delivery.Branson offers two standard models of Radiance controls: 3G and 3I. These units include DC laser power supplies, CANopen laser bank bus network, 6" LCD touch screen interface, and the ability to control a Branson 2000X Series actuator. The advanced controls include:Time and distance welding modes (both collapse and absolute) Force measurement Process limits with alarms Multiple preset memory Graphing and weld history data Multiple languagesRadiance ComponentsThe 3G is a compact bench-top controller. It is designed to interface with a single 2000X actuator and up to two Radiance laser banks capable of delivering up to 250 Watts of laser power. This unit is designed to be operated with an external chiller.The 3I is a free-standing controller. It is designed to interface with a single 2000X actuator and up to four Radiance laser banks capable of delivering up to 500 Watts of laser power. This unit features an internal chiller for laser cooling.The 2000X actuator offers a precisely - controlled method of delivering the tooling to the workpiece and generating clamp force. The actuator includes a force transducer and optical linear encoder for accurate distance welding and results reporting. The actuator is available in various stroke lengths and air cylinder sizes so that it can be matched properly to the application. It is available with a standard Ergo base for manual operation or a compact hub mount for use in automation.Download the Radiance?Brochure here
