For thick-walled sheets with wall thicknesses between 2mm - 50mm, for economic reasons in most cases the MSG welding process, or MIG/MAG is applied, as well as LaserHybrid with MIG-/MAG welding. The LaserHybrid method thereby achieves six times the speed of the MIG-/MAG process and at the same time makes do with just a third of the protective gas flow. However this could be covered just as well by an appropriate process control. For this processes the plasmo control systems like the
processobserver and the
profileobserver are adapted for.
