Research Status and Development Trend of Laser Welding Technology of Plastic

The technological and economic advantages of laser welding of plastics in comparison to the traditional welding process and research situation are analyzed in this paper. Process methods of this technology are reviewed as well as the range of application for these manners is compared. The technological challenges facing the further development of the technology and the critical issues needing to be solved are deeply investigated. It is pointed out that efficient prevention of plastics distortion and cracking as well as control of internal structure and defects are currently the two bottleneck obstacles challenging the further development and industrial applications of the revolutionary advanced manufacturing technology. The developments of laser welding technology of plastics in the future are also forecasted.
