Laser Mechanisms’ FiberWeld DH is a high power, laser wire direct energy deposition (DED) head for processing macro-scale industrial and aerospace components and tooling.
Engineered for high duty cycle production applications, FiberWeld DH features direct-cooled reflective optics, back reflection protection and wire feed. The head’s advanced optical design permits filler wire to be fed directly into the beam path – right into the center of the melt pool. This allows the deposition process to have total directional independence. In addition, FiberWeld DH’s easily accessible, protective cover glass extends the life of internal optics.
