Use of laser technologies in railway construction
PERFECT RESULTS, CLEAN AND EFFICIENT
Laser technologies are a key factor in railway construction, both in production and repairs. first-class method compared to conventional production methods.
The products from AK Industry offer the best devices and toolsto cover the various and diverse requirements.
Hand laser welding
This technology offers excellent possibilities in the thin sheet range up to 6 mm for joining aluminium, high-strength structural steels and other materials with virtually no distortion.
In wagon construction, hand laser welding thus provides an innovative and very efficient type of joining technology that is particularly visually impressive for long contours and delivers better quality with shorter production times compared to conventional welding methods.
Automated laser welding
Automated laser welding technology offers a high cost-benefit effect for applications in series production, as the throughput of parts is extremely high while maintaining the same quality. This optically perfect quality can be supported and ensured through the use of monitoring systems and sensor technology for 100%
Laser cleaning
Due to the heavy exposure to various environmental influences, laser cleaning is an excellent technology for removing rust and other deposits from surfaces on affected parts quickly, cleanly and without leaving any residue, especially during maintenance work in railway construction.
Inaccessible areas are hardly a problem any more, as even such areas are cleaned quickly and efficiently and without any harmful effects on the surfaces, as no chemical or abrasive additives are used.
