Fiber laser

TruFiber

Single-mode fiber laser

The single-mode fiber laser, TruFiber, from TRUMPF has top beam quality. This enables highly dynamic welding and cutting processes. However, it also allows for a reduced heat-affected zone and delicate structures. Furthermore, the laser comes into its own with welding in conjunction with beam oscillation (wobbling). In doing so, it achieves top-quality results with an increased welding depth and variable seam width. Areas of application for the TruFiber include the fields of electromobility, electrical engineering, and electronics, as well as precision engineering and medical technology.

Comprehensive solution from one source

The laser, control, beam guidance, processing optics, and sensor system are optimally attuned to one another and can be combined perfectly at TRUMPF.

100% consistent process results

With its particularly robust design concept, the TruFiber withstands disturbing influences and external demands.

Wobble laser welding

Oscillation of the laser beam brings advantages in terms of the welding geometry and weld seam quality

Intelligence included

The TruFiber provides high integration capabilities and TruControl intelligent control.

Top laser safety

Machine and system constructors are responsible for operator safety for the laser systems. The TruFiber impresses with its top level of safety.

Optimized for Industry 4.0

Analyze and control your production processes

Everything from a single source

Are you looking for the right scanner optics for remote processing? Would you like to orient your laser process using features to be detected on the component? You want to be sure that the laser power remains stable, even on the ten-thousandth component? Don't want to purchase a chiller specially for laser light cables and optics? Would you like to use robots to carry out the laser process? The TruFiber with periphery provides a comprehensive solution for this and many other applications.

TruFiber versions – 19-inch, stand alone, with rollers

What type is right for you?

Select the design of your TruFiber depending on the system concept. You can decide whether to install the laser in a space-saving manner, for example in your electrical cabinet, or place it next to the cabinet in a flexible manner. In this case, it is possible up to 1 kW to integrate the laser chiller in the laser cabinet in a space-saving manner.

Ready for Industry 4.0

With the TruFiber you can take a big step towards a Smart Factory. Due to the laser's connectivity via OPC/UA, optimum networking of the fiber laser is guaranteed – a standardized, reliable, and independent solution. Using Factory Gate you can integrate several devices into the network – even across sites. With Condition Monitoring you also have full transparency at all times concerning all laser states via dashboards. The Precision Time Protocol also ensures coordination of all sensors with precise timing, and remote access ensures convenient service from anywhere.

Cooling included

The processing optics and the laser light cable connector can simply and conveniently be cooled using the cooling water of the laser. Corresponding cooling water outflows are located on the rear of the TruFiber. Separate cooling of the optics/the laser light cable is therefore not necessary.

Performance Level e

Performance Level e allows the OFF and ON-times of the emergency stop safety circuit to be reduced to 25 ms or 90 ms. These fast OFF and ON-times reduce the cycle time of your systems, particularly if you produce components that require the safety circuit to open for transfer.

Welding in battery technology

The TruFiber is suitable for a wide range of tasks within electric mobility. For example, the very good beam quality helps when welding mixed compounds such as cell connectors. The welding depth can be increased when welding busbars with the TruFiber due to its high level of intensity.

Wobble welding

The oscillation of the laser beam while it moves forward provides a range of process advantages and greater freedom – for example improved weld seam quality, adjustable seam width, and a homogenous welding depth.

Welding of hairpins for electric motors

The TruFiber is well suited to processing electric motor hairpins, depending on the size and requirements involved. VisionLine image processing in conjunction with the PFO scanner optics support laser beam positioning along the joint gap

Laser precision cutting

Due to its outstanding focusability, you can achieve highly precise and dynamic processing results with delicate structures with the TruFiber – and optimize your process times at the same time.

Laser precision welding

Achieve extremely delicate weld seams with minimal energy input into the workpiece with the TruFiber as your tool of choice, for example when welding seams on electronic components.

TruControl

TruControl is the quick and easy-to-use control for TRUMPF solid-state lasers. It regulates the laser power in real time in order to deliver reproducible results. Additional modules are specially tailored to the requirements of the TruFiber. The CutAssist option automatically adapts the laser parameters to the path velocity of the guidance system. In order to ensure that parts are traceable, the DataStore module records all quality-related data.

If external controls are present, TruControl will communicate with them via standard interfaces. Inputs are made via the touchscreen of the operating panel or via a panel PC. You can integrate your laser into the network via Ethernet and connect multiple PCs.

TO PRODUCT

Smart Teach app

With the PFO Smart Teach app, you can create laser programs for your programmable focusing optics (PFO) in the blink of an eye. Whether it's laser welding, laser cutting, or laser cleaning – you can teach conveniently directly on the component. For this purpose, the camera integrated into the PFO transmits live images to the app. Due to the PFO SmartTeach, you save valuable time (up to 50% depending on the component) when setting up compared to conventional teaching.

TO PRODUCT

With TRUMPF you have the ability to adapt your solid-state laser to your installation and operating situation with flexibility. This applies, for example, to all beam guidance components and the control. You also have several options for cooling the laser. Interfaces for different optics are provided right from the start. The TRUMPF Remote Service helps you to ensure your system remains available, anywhere and at any time.

Laser power control

100% consistent process results – the integrated laser power control measures and regulates the power in real time, accurate to +/- 1%. This means you always obtain the same process results. The laser power is regulated independently of the ambient conditions. Due to its particularly robust design concept, the TruFiber withstands disturbing influences and external demands extremely well.

Integrated compressor cooler

The stand-alone design provides you with a complete turnkey laser unit in the cabinet with integrated water/air compressor cooler up to 1 kW. Due to the compact footprint of the overall device, it can be easily integrated into laser systems.

Intelligent down to the workpiece

Intelligent optics can be synchronized with your laser via a dedicated interface. This will allow you to use the PFO scanner optics optimally for your purposes. You can easily program the processing optics via the laser control system. Wobble geometries can be superimposed directly on the path geometry, for example. Additional controls are not necessary.

Interface variety – for simple integration

Interfaces are key for the integration of a TruFiber laser into your machine or production line. The solid-state lasers from TRUMPF offer interfaces to all common fieldbus systems. Also available: real-time interface, parallel digital I/O, interface for process sensor systems, OPC UA software interface, analog input board, interface for intelligent TRUMPF optics (CFO, PFO).

Remote Services

In the event of an error, TRUMPF service experts will remotely access your laser via a secure remote connection. In many cases the fault can be remedied directly in this way, or the configuration of the laser can be modified in a way that permits you to continue manufacturing until the spare part arrives.

Extended ambient conditions

The TruFiber from TRUMPF can also be used reliably in extreme climates. The tropical version of the fiber laser extends the relative humidity to 100% at 32°C.
