How to choose single pendulum and double pendulum handheld welding laser system？

Handheld laser welding is a new welding technology that is rapidly gaining popularity. Its principle is to quickly melt materials with laser to form a weld, thereby achieving the purpose of welding. Compared with traditional welding, handheld laser welding has the advantages of low entry threshold, fast welding speed, and beautiful welds. Therefore, it has achieved rapid growth in sales in the market in recent years.

Handheld welding laser equipment requires a control system to adjust processing parameters such as power size and focus shape. Currently, handheld welding mainly uses embedded controllers as the control system. Since the galvanometers that control the laser direction include single swing motors and double swing motors, Handheld laser welding control systems are also divided into two types: single pendulum control system and double pendulum control system.

The swing motor adjusts the direction of the laser by controlling the galvanometer. A single motor can only control changes in a single direction, similar to a single X-axis or a single Y-axis, while dual motors can be combined with each other to enable the galvanometer to turn to any angle, achieving a more Complex welding process.

Under normal circumstances, there is not much difference between the single-pendulum handheld laser welding control system and the double-pendulum handheld laser welding control system in terms of main functions such as laser control, information display, parameter setting, and safety alarm. The same device, two types of control There won’t be much difference in the system’s welding speed and weld appearance.

However, because the double pendulum system can freely control the laser angle, the double pendulum handheld laser equipment can process complex parts, such as parts with included angles and dead ends. These parts where the laser head cannot be directly aimed require adjustment of the double pendulum control system. The laser angle allows operators to complete processing without alignment.

In addition, some welding tasks that require higher precision or more complex welding paths also require a double-pendulum control system. This is also the largest functional difference between the single-pendulum handheld laser control system and the double-pendulum handheld laser control system. difference.

In terms of price, the price of the pendulum handheld laser control system is relatively low, and the overall price of its supporting pendulum handheld laser welding machine is also relatively low. For general sheet metal processing, such as furniture welding, billboard welding, kitchen cabinet welding, etc. It is sufficient to use a single-pendulum handheld welding control system, but complex tasks still require dual-pendulum handheld welding to complete. The specific choice depends on your own requirements.
