ADR

The ADR1 pressure wheel supplements our laser processing systems (e.g. ALO3) and the APN1 Adaptive Platform for Seam Tracking. In combination with processing optics for laser welding or brazing, the ADR1 ensures gap-free joints in laser welding operations.

Function description

To ensure optimum results, the ADR1 presses the top plate onto the fixed bottom plate while the joining process is simultaneously carried out at the defined position. The ADR1 has an integrated force sensor to regulate the pressure and enable a precise, adjustable force curve with fine gradation.
