Publication number: 20240173800Abstract: A method for laser welding a stack of metal foils to a metal substrate includes securing the stack of metal foils between a surface of the metal substrate and a removable clamp such that a side of the stack, formed by edges of the foils, is located on an interior portion of the surface, and the clamp is set back from the side of the stack. A first laser welding step interconnects the foils with an initial laser-weld joint by serially tracing a plurality of lateral paths along the foil edges with a laser beam. A second laser welding step connects the stack of interconnected foils to the substrate by tracing, with a laser beam, a path along the interface between the initial laser-weld joint and the substrate surface. This two-step laser welding process circumvents the difficulties of welding together materials with highly disparate thicknesses in a single laser-welding operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2022Publication date: May 30, 2024Applicant: Rofin-Sinar Laser GmbHInventors: Falk NAGEL, Peter KALLAGE
