Dance of the photons

Remote welding works by using two mirrors inside the scanner optics PFO to rapidly focus the laser beam on the workpiece with a high degree of precision. Volkswagen has taken this method one step further by making the laser beam oscillate, or 'dance', along the gap. And the focusing optics PFO 3D has given the focus spot a whole new freedom of movement and allows for three-dimensional scanner welding. more...

If this annoyance occurs, automobile manufacturers have to deal with the complaints, which also get back to the sealing system manufacturers like the well-known company KACO. more...
