About the laser technology in the future market which new application growth point, has been the topic that everybody pays close attention to. What are the main potential markets for laser technology in the future? Longxin machinery with you to learn about:
First, laser technology is applied to laser cleaning: with the enhancement of environmental protection consciousness, various environmental protection cleaning technologies emerge as the times require, among which laser cleaning technology is one of them. Laser cleaning takes advantage of the interaction between high energy laser beam and the material to be removed on the surface of workpiece, which results in instantaneous evaporation or exfoliation, no need for various chemical cleaning agents, and environmental protection. Can be used to remove paint, oil, oxide layer, cleaning screw, rust removal, cleaning weld, etc.
Second, laser technology is applied to metal 3D printing market: metal 3D printing is also called material increasing manufacture, usually using selective laser cladding (slm) technology, the metal powder is melted layer by laser energy to make the desired shape. In 2016, the sales of the SLM system exceeded 1000 units, of which the laser sources were mainly fiber lasers, disc lasers, r / co 2 lasers and femtosecond fiber lasers, with a power range of 30w to above 1kw .
Thrid, and the precision of printing was also getting higher and higher. The resolution of the printed fine structure has reached the order of micron. The application of laser technology to lidar: in the next five years, the lidar market will grow steadily. The main driving force of the market growth comes from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), autonomous vehicles, robots, military and other fields.
Fourth, laser technology is used in laser radar lighting: part of the market of laser lighting is automotive laser lighting, mainly automotive headlights. BMW, Audi and other well-known car manufacturers are using laser lighting systems. Another part of the market is lighting, such as providing warning signs to people riding in night environments. Ng agents, and environmental protection. can be used to remove paint, oil, oxide layer, cleaning screw, rust removal, cleaning weld, etc. second, laser technology is applied to metal 3D printing market: metal 3D printing is also called material increasing manufacture.
