Carrs receive award from MedTec Europe.

Carrs have been recognised by Medtech Outlook as the 'Top Medical Device Manufacturing Solutions Company' in Europe and the UK for 2022. They have singled Carrs out as the UK leader in this field as a result of our wide skill set and impressive portfolio of work over the years. They point out that our flexible, customer focussed approach makes us ideal partners for medical device industries whose components are continually reducing in size and increasing in complexity. Finding manufacturing solutions is therefore becoming more and more of a challenge, one that Carrs is proud to have 'unparalleled expertise' in according to Medtech Outlook. The Medical Tech Outlook magazine provides information and updates to the field of medical technology. They specialise in finding the up-and-coming industries which deserve to be recognised in their actions to find solutions to healthcare issues. (Example: - Carrs’ work with Imperial College on Magnetic Oculomotor Prosthetics)

Carrs very much appreciate this recognition and hope to be of service to new medical technological solutions which require laser welding expertise to progress in potentially life-saving solutions.

Carrs welcome Sam to the team.

In May, Carrs welcomed a new research assistant to the Soni-laser team. Samiul Hoque has a MSc in mechanical engineering and experience, specifically from investigating the mechanical properties of different types of 3-D printed lattice structures.

Having already completed training on the new in-house universal testing machine and the laser marker, Samiul is making a start with new trials for Soni-laser to progress the project. The work Samiul is carrying out along with the overseeing of the team and his technical manager John Silva, is determining the effect of ultrasonic vibration treatment on the laser welding of dissimilar materials, tailored towards the electric vehicle industry. We are hoping to prove yet again, from our UltraMAT project, that ultrasonic treatment makes for faster and higher quality welds. As the project progresses Samiul will be ensuring the validity of the data and assisting in the direction of future trials to progress Soni-Laser over the next 15 months.

The Key advantages of Laser Welding are:
-Accurate and controllable weld deposition
-Minimal HAZ (Heat Affected Zone) resulting in zero distortion
-Metallurgical match with parent materials allowing invisible repairs
-Line of sight access enabling welding in areas previously thought un-weldable
-Fast turnaround often allowing a While U Wait service to be possible.

SONILASER Month 4! Improving Laser Welding Proced

SONILASER Month 4!

Improving Laser Welding Procedures in Battery Packs

http://ow.ly/2Xa650I25k5

Carrs Welding Technologies & Brunel University have been awarded a grant from Innovate UK to carry out an R&D project on the potential for ultrasonic-assisted laser welding to significantly improve and facilitate the welding of EV battery packs.

The Sonilaser project aims to achieve:

• 25% Reduction in weld defects

• 30% mitigation of inter-metallic compounds reducing brittleness

• 10% minimum increase in mechanical strength increasing durability

• 50% minimum increase in welding speed enabling a 10-15% improvement in total battery productivity

We will be trialling various material combinations & researching the effect of the application of ultrasonic waves during the welding process. Brunel will be configuring a contactless delivery of these ultrasound waves to further make this new technology easy to use and apply. We are very excited for this project and are hopeful for the impact of our findings to greatly influence laser welding procedures in battery packs and beyond.

For more information: email sales@carrswelding.co.uk or call us on 01536 412 828 for details.

Shotguns are both functional tools and astatically

Shotguns are both functional tools and astatically pleasing collectors items. This makes Laser welding the ideal process as you have total control over the weld at all times enabling you to deposit exactly where you want to without even affecting the surrounding area. With this sort of control you can fill individual letters of engraving 1-2mm height or deposit hard material on the end of a firing pin without risk of distortion. This is not to say larger areas can’t be build if required as Laser welding is ideal for this too and with the ability to control the depth of deposit we can reduce the post weld machining or hand finishing to a minimum. The Key advantages of Laser Welding are:
-Accurate and controllable weld deposition
-Minimal HAZ (Heat Affected Zone) resulting in zero distortion
-Metallurgical match with parent materials allowing invisible repairs
-Line of sight access enabling welding in areas previously thought un-weldable
-Fast turnaround.

This laser weld repair with filler wire, shows one turn of a thread being removed by the skilled manual addition of filler wire applied into the laser weld to build up the material where it was removed to apply the thread.

Laser welding with filler wire allows previously unrepairable or "difficult to repair" parts to be restored to their previous state.

Contact our team today if you need something repaired with low heat input and high quality.

Laser Cladding is a welding technique where dissimilar metals are bonded together and a filler is manually added.

In the additive manufacturing process of Laser Cladding, the laser beam is used to melt the filler material. And metallurgically bond it to the base material. It has a wide range of different uses. From repairing worn out parts to improving mechanical properties in applications subjected to high amounts of stress.

The preferable technology for local repairs is Pul

The preferable technology for local repairs is Pulsed Laser Welding. Due to key qualities that negate the need for other Technologies.

KEY REQUIREMENTS FOR A SUCCESSFUL TOOL REPAIR

MINIMAL HAZ (Heat Affected Zone) – This means that the hardness of the surrounding area of the repair is unaffected by the weld. Resulting in no change to the desired qualities of the material. This becomes important when repairing critical mould surfaces. Where the Polish or Texture of the repair must perfectly match its surrounding areas.

ACCURATE WELD DEPOSITION – The accuracy of Pulsed Laser Welding enables us to build even complex shapes with total control. Resulting in having less material to remove after the weld repair. This can have a cost saving during the post weld machining operations. Especially Spark Erosion. Where the minimum build can on occasion negate the need for Roughing Electrodes.

ULTRA LOW DISTORTION – The resulting minimal heat affected zone after a pulsed welding operation allows Carrs to repair thin profiles with little or no distortion. Something that is almost impossible for technologies such as TIG Welding. Small chips on blades or tiny upstanding core features are regular occurring Laser repairs for this very reason.

ACCESSIBILITY TO DIFFICULT AREAS – Pulsed Laser Welding is a line of sight operation through a narrow conical angle (30° inclusive). This allows access to areas that even the smallest TIG Torch would fail to reach, combine this with the concentrated energy of the Laser and areas such as pockets, slots and acute-angled faces can now be accurately welded where they once would be inaccessible or require opening-out to gain access operations prior to the repair action.

There are still occasions where technologies like TIG Welding are the right choice, which is why Carrs offers both Laser and TIG services and will always look to provide the best option for each application.
