During sheet metal laser welding, how to fix the workpiece directly determines the welding accuracy and consistency, so the design and customization of the fixture is crucial.
1. The role of the fixture
Precise positioning: ensure that the parts will not be displaced during welding and improve the welding quality.
Reduce welding deformation: A good fixture can control heat input and reduce thermal deformation.
Improve production efficiency: Customized fixtures can shorten the clamping time and are suitable for mass production.
2. Key points of fixture design
Modular structure: Some fixtures are designed as adjustable structures, which are suitable for sheet metal parts of different specifications and improve versatility.
Reserved space for welds: Consider the optical path of laser welding during design to ensure that the weld area is unobstructed.
Cooling system: For large-area sheet metal parts, cooperate with water cooling or air cooling system to prevent welding deformation.
3. Application cases of tooling fixtures
Automobile body welding fixture:
Ensure the precise docking of multiple sheets of metal and improve welding quality.
Battery chassis welding fixture:
Customized fixtures can quickly fix thin plates to avoid deformation caused by excessive clamping force.
The flexible fixture can adapt to chassis of different sizes, improving the versatility of the equipment.
