Welding Processes

Whether MIG/MAG, resistance, ultrasonic or laser, TEAM Automation Berlin – together with its partners – automates complex welding processes, with full recording and analysis of process data.

Laser Welding Technology

Laser welding is an extremely efficient and fascinating process, suitable for the finest welds and components of various shapes and geometries. In most cases, laser welding is performed without additional material, ensuring durable and secure joints.

Ultrasonic Welding

In ultrasonic welding, one or more thermoplastic materials are joined by internal friction at the joint.

Resistance Welding

Resistance welding is a method for joining electrically conductive materials, based on the heat generated by the current passing through the joint. The parts are heated to the welding temperature and then joined under pressure through solidification, diffusion, or in the solid phase.

Soldering Processes

In collaboration with specialized partners, TEAM Automation Berlin designs, plans, and builds manual, semi-automated, and fully automated soldering systems tailored to both customer and process requirements.

Inductive Soldering

In inductive soldering, an AC source of medium or high frequency is connected to the secondary coil (soldering inductor). The alternating current induces a magnetic field that generates eddy currents at the joint, heating it to soldering temperature. This process requires the parts to be electrically conductive. To prevent the inductor from overheating, water cooling is applied through the empty coil conduit.

Light Soldering

Light soldering uses short-wave infrared radiation with a wavelength of approximately 1µm. The light source is positioned at the focus of a semi-elliptical mirror, enabling the radiation to be concentrated at a second focus. The energy is absorbed at the joint surface and converted into heat. The focal spot is usually 2–3 mm in diameter.

Resistance Soldering

In resistance soldering, heat is generated by an electric current passing through the joint. The conductor heats up due to its resistance. This method is particularly effective for joining components of differing masses—for example, small parts to large sheets—using a soldering paste containing flux and solder.

Laser Soldering

In laser soldering, the thermal energy required to melt the solder is provided by focused, coherent laser light of a specific wavelength. Among various laser types (CO2, Nd:YAG, diode), diode lasers are best suited for soldering, offering superior absorption characteristics and precise power control to achieve optimal energy profiles.
