Our drag gas nozzles are not wear parts, but are designed for continuous operation. There are replaceable wear parts in the nozzle body that can be replaced if they become heavily stained (e.g. by welding spatter).

OSCAR-PLT can select the right nozzles for you. The size and geometry of the nozzles can vary greatly depending on the process. Our service includes process analysis, welding tests, nozzle design, structural integration and on-site commissioning. The selection of the right nozzles depends on several factors, including the material to be welded, the welding process used and the system environment.

We see our laser technology as an important and forward-looking addition to the mentioned processes. We can work dynamically on components and under normal conditions using localised shielding gas coverage. Minimising distortion and undesirable softening of the base materials are just some of the advantages that enable us to overcome production limits. With ProFocus, wire and powder materials can also be guided in one system and applied layer by layer, locally, and even in alternation, if needed. This flexibility does not exist with other processes.
