Beam Shaping for Enhancing Electric Vehicle Welding Applications 23 Oct

PowerPhotonic

Demand for use of laser beam welding in the manufacture of EV batteries and fuel cells is increasing, with growth in demand expected. This white paper has featured a case study in which PowerPhotonic freeform beam shaping technology brings advances in key aspects of laser welding for EV applications: improving the weld process, making welds stronger and with lower spatter: ultimately making EV systems safer for all. Contact PowerPhotonic to start your collaborative journey to improved laser welding.

Making Raman Measurements Reproducible 28 Mar

Wasatch Photonics

Raman OEM applications need consistent spectra to deliver dependable answers. A good-quality OEM spectrometer should, by design, exhibit low unit-to-unit variability from the start, and any remaining small differences should be corrected in order to achieve the most robust and repeatable analytical outcomes in the field. Learn how to achieve >99.5% unit-to-unit agreement using a series of simple corrections.
