Components in carbon steels: mechanical and safety-critical joints
Industrial need
Producing robust structural joints on carbon steel components that meet stringent mechanical and safety requirements, while remaining economically viable for automotive applications.
IREPA LASER solution
Design of the welded assembly, proof of concept, process optimisation and preparation of a production installation. Complete process definition: design, material selection, optimisation of welding parameters.
Technical challenge
Producing robust structural joints on carbon steel components that meet stringent mechanical and safety requirements and are economically viable for automotive applications.
Results achieved
The project made it possible to clearly define the machine specifications and rapidly launch a production line. The process is qualified, robust and suited to high industrial throughput rates.
