As component and subsystem manufacturers in military and aerospace are relying more heavily on the precision of laser welding over other welding techniques ― such as Arc or Tig welding ― they’re also under continuous pressure to improve their quality levels and lot-to-lot traceability. Though laser welding procedures have long been performed “under the hood” in non-pressurized and negatively pressurized gloveboxes or enclosures, next-generation laser welding systems are now being engineered in positively pressurized gloveboxes with controlled atmospheres. With these systems, purifying gas (typically Argon) is introduced and monitored to create an optimal environment in which to laser weld.
