What is hybrid welding?

Process: Laser + Halogen = Hybrid

Hybrid welding combines two different sources of radiation and offers many advantages compared to conventional welding processes.

  • Primary sources of radiation: laser radiation (NIR-wavelength spectrum)
  • Secondary source radiation: halogen radiation (polychromatic radiation)
Advantages of hybrid welding
  • Reduction of laser power
  • Higher welding speed
  • Increased seam strength
  • Larger process window
  • Better process stability
  • Less stress fractures
  • improved gap bridging
