Medical devices use a variety of metal components that are often welded to form a secure and permanent bond. Options available for welding processes are limited because of certain constraints such as ...

The devices and tools used in medicine are becoming smaller. They have greater functionality and are expected to last longer than earlier devices. Design, manufacturing, and packaging the devices and ...

Researchers discuss an ambitious project to understand the basic principles of laser welding better than ever before. On its surface, the work is deceptively simple: Shoot a high-power laser beam onto ...

The deployment of laser technology in Antarctica required specialized design adaptations, including low-temperature cooling systems and additional insulation to withstand subzero temperatures. Laser ...

The operator's dexterity has a real influence upon laser welding quality but this can be reduced when the choice of welding parameters has been optimized. It is possible to avoid the empiric choice of ...
