What applications is the LM-C intended for?
The LM-C is an automatic laser welding and mold repair system (Nd:YAG, flash lamp), designed for precision repairs of small molds, inserts and inserts, where repeatability, bead quality and partial process automation are key.
What is the stability of LM-C (Smart Spot)?
The LM-C uses Smart Spot technology, which ensures a repeatable welding process, a large depth of focus and stable laser pulse triggering from the very first shots, which reduces sensitivity to minor deviations in the focus setting and improves weld quality.
How does LM-C affect operator comfort?
The new ergonomic design and low noise level guarantee high work comfort, and the ECO function automatically deactivates selected system components during downtime, which reduces energy consumption, reduces heat generation and extends the life of components.
What are the basic technical parameters of the LM-C 180 and LM-C 210?
Both models use a 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser; the LM-C 180 has an average power of 80 W, a peak power of 9 kW and a maximum pulse energy of 180 J (at 20 ms), while the LM-C 210 has 85 W, 10.5 kW and 210 J; pulse duration 0.3–25 ms, spot diameter 0.2–2 mm (0.1 mm optional).
What are the axis movement ranges and maximum mold dimensions in LM-C?
The worktable offers an XY stroke of 150 x 150 mm and a Z axis of 175 mm, with a maximum mould weight of 25 kg and a typical mould size of up to approximately 300 x 300 x 270 mm, which suits small mould and insert applications.
What is the “digital advancement” of LM-C?
The LM-C features full digital electronics control, a precise monitoring system for consumables (e.g. lamps), high pulse stability and extended lamp life, ensuring reliability, fewer service downtimes and lower operating costs.
How is LM-C different from LM-C VISION?
LM-C VISION, in addition to the LM-C functions, integrates the patented Syncro View system that provides a smooth view of the welding zone even during laser emission, which significantly improves the operator's eye comfort during long welding cycles.
How does LM-C compare to LM-B and LM-D?
The LM-C is an automatic system (e.g., with the ability to program movements and trajectories), the LM-B is a semi-automatic system with a joystick for the XYZ table, and the LM-D is a fully manual system; all use Smart Spot and ECO, but the LM-C offers the highest level of automation for small mold repairs.
For which companies will LM-C be the best choice?
The LM-C is ideal for tool shops and small mold repair shops that need an automatic, stable and cost-effective system for repeatable repairs and welding, with high bead quality and low energy and service costs.
