IPG Photonics Corp. and Reliant Technologies, Inc. are introducing a revolutionary new industrial scanning system for high speed spot welding and drilling that can increase manufacturing throughput and end product performance. This new scanning system combines proprietary technology developed by Reliant for original use within their medical device products with IPG’s proven industrial fiber lasers. This industrial scanner provides the ability to rapidly dwell at a particular location for a programmed period of time with frequencies of up to 5,000 times/sec. The locations can be non-sequential to ensure thermal management on the material to be processed. The scanner has only one moving part, making it very adaptable to manufacturing environments.
