Lighter with laser welding
For a definitive breakthrough of lightweight
materials in the automotive industry,
new processes for manufacturing, testing
and measuring are necessary. For this, steelaluminium
hybrid welds are of great interest,
since they can be used for load-adapted, and
at the same time lightweight components.
Within the project “LaserLeichter“ (Laser
Lighter), the Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V.
(LZH), Hanover/Germany, is currently developing
a laser welding process for joining
three-dimensional structures made of steel
and aluminium in a hybrid design.
