At Laser Technology Janssen bv, we combine our expertise in laser welding technology with an in-depth understanding of additive manufacturing.
This enables us to achieve strong, precise, and visually high-quality laser welds, even for challenging 3D-printed geometries in combination with sheet metal and turned parts.
3D metal printing, also known as additive manufacturing, opens up new possibilities in design freedom, weight reduction, and customization.
However, to make these complex parts truly functional for high-end applications, a reliable joining method is essential. Laser welding provides the perfect solution.
Why Laser Welding for 3D-Printed Parts?
- Precise heat input
Ideal for thin-walled and/or complex structures, without distortion or shrinkage. - Suitable for complex geometries
Laser welding is contactless, making it perfect for hard-to-reach areas. - Seamless integration
Perfect bonding of printed parts to conventional components or other printed elements. - High weld quality
Fully automated, ensuring consistent results.
Typical Applications
- Medical implants with integrated connections
- Aerospace parts with optimized strength-to-weight ratio
- Industrial tooling and/or manifolds with internal cooling channels
- Precision components in fine mechanics and optics
Our Approach
Laser Technology Janssen bv uses advanced 5-axis laser welding systems, equipped with both pulsed and continuous laser sources, tailored to the specific material and design.
We have extensive experience with materials like titanium, stainless steel, aluminum, and nickel-based alloys, which are frequently used in 3D printing applications.
Additionally, we offer:
- Pre-processing and post-processing
Such as cleaning, alignment, and microscopic inspection of weld seams. - Welding technical advice
We collaborate early in the design phase to determine the optimal welding strategy. - Quality control and documentation
Available with reporting according to our standard or tailored to your requirements.
