Rex Alexandre, Principal Engineer at the Handheld Laser Institute, and former Sr. Welding Engineer for SpaceX will join Dean Brennan of IPG Photonics to demonstrate how laser welding has become popularized as an integral manufacturing technique in transportation industries. The two will explore with Jeff Poole of I-CAR, research and testing of the application in the collision repair industry, as well as challenges and considerations for the implementation of the photon joining process.
This session will focus on the manufacturing application of laser welding in the OEM automotive and aerospace production process. Understand the engineering objectives of laser welding in a production environment, and the evolving landscape of handheld laser welding technologies for repair process solutions. Attendees will gain insight into fundamental research being conducted to identify the opportunity for utilization, best practices, and industry standards governing the use of handheld laser welding that may set the groundwork for introduction as a future replacement methodology.
Panelists include: Rex Alexandre, President, Principal Engineer at the Handheld Laser Institute, Dean Brennan, North American Sales Manager – LightWELD at IPG Photonics, and Jeff Poole,
