M17LSB L

The combination of wire bonding and laser welding was developed in cooperation with the Fraunhofer ILT Aachen.

  • Greater current-carrying capacity due to larger conductor cross-sections than with ultrasonic bonding
  • Low production costs due to low demands on the surface quality of the joining partners
  • Allows XYZ position tolerances compared to laser welding due to touch down sensor and image recognition
  • No mechanical damage to the components due to lower clamping forces of the component holder
  • Combines two processes on one machine without conversion: laser bonding of ribbons, laser tab bonding of connectors

M17LSB XL

It offers the perfect solution of terminal contacting for power modules as well as for battery assembly applications. Aluminium, copper or nickel ribbons are welded using laser energy with low bonding force. The process offers a wider range of different material joining partners compared to ultrasonic wire bonding and can be easily automated.
