Amada Weld Tech, a manufacturer of welding, marking, cutting, sealing, and bonding equipment and systems, will be exhibiting at MD&M West at the Anaheim Convention Center, on 7th-9th February.

The exhibit will highlight the company's latest products with the Amada Weld Tech trying emphasise reliability, quality, and innovation.

In the booth, the company will highlight the WL-300A laser processing workstation, which can be integrated with lasers for medical device welding. This product showcases Amada Weld Tech's expertise in micro-welding. The WL-300A on display will incorporate galvo scanning motion with XY Cartesian motion to address complex part geometries.

Amada Weld Tech will demonstrate the UB-1500A low-power linear DC micro spot welder with the SL-323A high precision, low force electromagnetic weld head. This product combination was designed specifically for applications requiring precise positioning and force control resulting in robust, repeatable micro-welds commonly required in the medical device manufacturing processes.

Complementary to the resistance welding system will be a live demonstration of the new WM-200A IIoT-ready, networked monitor. The monitor will collect high-resolution waveform data from the UB-1500A/SL-323A, which can be used for instantaneous comparison of good/bad signals, for statistical analysis of the process, and provide a means for manufacturing traceability. Amada Weld Tech will also show handheld and desktop weld process monitoring solutions to aid in production.

Also on display will be a preview of the soon-to-be-released MM-L400A real-time laser welding process monitor, a compact, lightweight unit that supports laser technologies for spot or seam welding. The monitor, which captures high-resolution waveforms from three different wavelength bands, in addition to measuring the laser power, is networked for easy data transfer, analysis and storage.

The company's most recent innovation on display is the SIGMA LS laser micromachining subsystem, a femtosecond laser-integrated module designed for high-precision processing versatility. The small form factor and integration-ready design means it can be used by machine builders and system integrators, as well as contract manufacturers, job shops, and R&D laboratories.
