From September 15 to 19, 2025, Scansonic will showcase its latest innovations at the international trade fair Schweißen & Schneiden in Essen. The focus will be on processing optics for laser-based metalworking, with special attention to solutions for challenging component geometries.

Berlin, June 2025 – Scansonic will present its latest developments in laser welding, brazing, and cutting at Essen. The exhibition will highlight processing optics and sensor solutions for demanding joining tasks, particularly for complex component geometries.

A key feature of the exhibition is the enhanced ALO4 optics family for laser brazing and welding with filler wire and tactile seam tracking. Several variants have been developed for different joints, such as those found in battery case manufacturing. These variants enable wider connection cross-sections to increase seam strength, access to deep seam areas, and – newly introduced – vertical welding of corner joints. This range of optics covers the entire spectrum of typical joining tasks in battery boxes. In collaboration with partner companies Dinse (wire feeding) and Brightlight Laser Systems (laser source), Scansonic offers these technologies as integrated complete solutions upon request.

Also on display will be Scansonic's latest development: the SCW (Safe Component Welding) laser welding optics. It meets the requirements of Laser Class 1, allowing laser welding without a laser protection cell. This saves significant investment costs and creates new flexibility for production use.

The optics are based on the advanced FCW (Fast Component Welding) system technology, originally developed for tasks in electromobility. Multiple compact scanner units are combined on a process-specific carrier plate, enabling either larger components to be processed in one pass or several smaller components simultaneously – a solution particularly suited for high-cycle manufacturing processes and long seams.
