What are the Differences Between Laser Seam Welding VS Spot Welding?

Many devices in life need to use laser welding technology. But in addition to laser welding technology, there is also spot welding technology. So what is the difference between a laser seam welding machine vs a spot welding machine?

Spot welding:

Ordinary spot welding is a simple and economical way. Technically, this method does not require much. Sometimes, the welding machine will be a little more complicated. Spot welding is the welding between two workpieces, and there will be layered superposition at the joint, such as the phenomenon of welding gap. In this case, it will look ugly in appearance. However, laser welding can reduce this kind of problem to a great extent. In contrast, the speed of laser welding is much faster than that of ordinary spot welding, and there is no need to do aesthetic treatment in the follow-up.

Laser welding:

Laser welding is a method of welding with a focused laser beam as the energy source to generate heat. Because the laser has optical properties such as refraction and focusing. This makes laser welding very suitable for welding micro parts and difficult welding parts. Laser welding also has the characteristics of low heat input, small welding deformation, and no influence of electromagnetic field. However, due to the high price of lasers, laser welding has not been widely used. Generally speaking, it is less used in small enterprises, but it will be more used in large enterprises. And the position of the weldment needs to be very accurate, so the operator must operate within the focus range of the laser beam.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the gap after laser welding is continuous, and the weld seam after spot welding is spaced. Therefore, the laser-welded seam will be more beautiful. Technically speaking, laser welding is a relatively strong welding mode. In social applications, most enterprises use laser welding most widely.
