    GSI Group - Laser Division JK300HP/JK300P/JK125P Pre-installation and User Manual Issue 2.0 Variations in focus position are tolerated more efficiently using a Modulated Beam. When the weld surface varies in distance from the Focus Lens, the use of high Peak Power overcomes the loss of weld penetration due to the lower intensity in the focus spot.

    GSI Group - Laser Division JK300HP/JK300P/JK125P Issue 2.0 Pre-installation and User Manual Under normal conditions, adequate gas shielding can be provided via a pipe to the weld area around the beam/material interaction point. Gas flow should typically be 10 - 20 litres/minute Argon.
  • Page 178: Material Welding

    However, some materials require material addition to give high quality welds with acceptable properties. At the high power level of the JK300HP/JK300P/125P Series Laser, welding with material addition is readily achievable although welding speeds are generally lower than with autogenous welding.

    GSI Group - Laser Division JK300HP/JK300P/JK125P Issue 2.0 Pre-installation and User Manual 10.15.4 Cover Slide Damage The use of a short focal length lens is not advisable when welding or cutting materials that generate high levels of fume and spatter. Fume and spatter can impinge on the Cover Slide below the Focusing Lens and cause a reduction in Laser beam transmission through it.
