  • Well, i am not sure that you are more clever than the constructors of those laser welding robots.

  • Oh and that body is not aluminium. the only audis with the alloy space frame technology are the a2, a8 and the new TT. this is an audi a4 wich only has an alloy bonnet and front gaurds. the alloy cars are not laser welded they use a special type ove rivit to hold it all together plus a few tig welds.

see all

  • y'all just a bunch of musing crackpots

  • Laserbeams can weld amazing stuff. Even the human tissue!!! The heat from laser beams are different because laser are made of coherent electromagnetic wave.

  • why he wouldn't be more clever than the constructors :) ,how told you that the constructors are just worring about the welding resistance ,

    they are more worried about the productivity and the rentability , to use 2 oposite electrode will be more complexe,and the productivity will be less. i guess ..

  • its just fusing the two metals by heatin them together which creates a weld prone to cracking but obviously works fine on car bodys

  • Definitely not resistance welding. For resistance welding you need two opposing electrodes. Otherwise the 1000 lb electrode force required would buckle the structure. I see only one roller. Not resistance welding.

  • i agree with you.

  • Way more heat input
