What is QCW laser welding machine

Author:Guangdong Fly Laser Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. Date:2025-03-03 Reading:

**QCW laser welding machine** (Quasi-Continuous Wave Laser Welding Machine) is a high-precision welding equipment that combines the advantages of continuous laser and pulsed laser. By modulating the laser output waveform, it achieves a balance between high peak power and low heat input in the "quasi-continuous" mode, which is suitable for precision welding needs of heat-sensitive materials.

### **Core principles and features**

1. **Technical principle**

- **Quasi-continuous output**: By quickly switching and controlling the laser (usually a fiber laser), a high-frequency, short-pulse-width continuous pulse sequence is generated. Each pulse lasts from microseconds to milliseconds, with low average power but high peak power.

- **Low heat input**: There is a cooling time between pulses, which greatly reduces heat accumulation and avoids material deformation or burning. It is especially suitable for welding thin plates and precision parts.

2. **Core advantages**

- ✅ **High peak power**: The energy of a single pulse can reach several kilowatts, achieving deep fusion welding and strong penetration.

- ✅ **High-precision control**: adjustable pulse width, frequency and energy, suitable for 0.1mm ultra-thin material welding (such as stainless steel, aluminum alloy, copper, etc.).

- ✅ **Small heat-affected zone**: reduce material oxidation and deformation, and improve the beauty and strength of the weld.

- ✅ **Wide material compatibility**: suitable for welding of metals (including highly reflective materials such as copper and aluminum), some non-metals and dissimilar materials.

### **Typical application scenarios**

1. **3C electronics**: welding of precision parts inside mobile phones/computers (such as battery tabs, camera brackets), and FPC flexible circuit boards.

2. **New energy**: power battery modules (cell tab welding), copper and aluminum busbar connections for energy storage systems.

3. **Medical devices**: high-cleanliness welding of stainless steel/titanium alloys for surgical instruments, implants, etc.

4. **Automobile manufacturing**: welding of micro-components such as sensors, motor windings, and wiring harness terminals.
