Iridium Power

Laser Welding

Iridium Tip The 0.4mm Iridium tip that generates the high performance of Iridium Power is an alloy with a very high melting point. Therefore, ordinary resistance welding cannot be used because the Iridium alloy does not melt enough and adequate weld strength cannot be guaranteed.

The DENSO patented 360° Laser Welding process employs a high-energy laser so reliable that the electrode resists wear in the worst conditions. Laser Welding Machinery
