Brazing

Laser brazing involves the joining of two objects by adding external material heated by the laser. Brazing is different from welding because of the addition of supplementary material in the form of brazing wires. 

This method's popularity is due to its durability (similar to that of welded seams) and the high aesthetic quality of the assembled components. Brazed welds made with the diode laser are characterized by their watertightness and their smooth surfaces. 

This technology is used to bond galvanized steel sheets or aluminum alloy components, which are typically used in the automotive industry. Thanks to these factors, the joint is ready for painting, which reduces the amount of finishing work required afterwards.
