Deliverables
Main results of the Droplet Weld project can be summarised as follows:
-An arc droplet welding touch & retract laboratory prototype has been developed.
This device is able to form molten droplets, of diameters>1mm, out of standard wire and place the molten metal droplets accurately onto a substrate in order to produce a weld.
-A laser droplet welding laboratory prototype has been developed.
This device is able to form molten droplets, of diameters<1mm, out of standard wire and place the molten metal droplets onto a substrate in order to produce a weld.
Targeted use is an industrial production setting in which accurate and reproducible joints have to be made quickly. Benefit is that cost of the system is low.
