Eco-Friendly Welding solutions and Practices for 2022 and Beyond
The industrial world needs welding. As the popularity of metal structures and constructions rises, more skilled welders are required. However, welding is an energy-intensive process and not so friendly to the environment. In large factories, a lot of energy used, and some gases may produce.
As the world moves towards protecting the environment, the welding industry is not left behind. There are several eco-friendly practices that welders can engage in to reduce their carbon footprint. To do that, welders need to look at the entire welding process to understand which part of the process affects the environment more. From there, the welder can reduce their carbon footprint by tweaking the:
- Welding speed
- The raw materials
- Processing time
- System costs
- Filler metals, and
- Seam quality
- But mostly look for Energy saving technology in welding like laser welding in general. Our supplementary Ecolener Photon saving technology gives you even a bigger advancein saving energy.
There is a need for a reduced carbon footprint in all industries. The welding industry can reduce its footprint by reducing the energy they use by making the process more efficient and eliminating the use of flux. Flux leads to the release of gases that are harmful to the environment.
To save the environment, welders around the world need to educate on the above eco-friendly techniques. Individuals as well as companies, have a role to play in making the air cleaner and the environment safer for the generations to come.
Rethinking Laser Welding for a Greener Tomorrow
Currently, the metal welding sector accounts also for of part of global carbon emissions. According to experts, this number is expected to increase dramatically by 2030, which leaves a clear incentive for the industry to deliver significant reductions in emissions in the years to come. With our New PhotonWeld© High Efficient Laser Welding Machine with the revolutionary EcolEner® Energy Saving Technology, we are able to increase the Wall Plug Efficiency to levels over 50%, which is an energy reduction of over 30% compared to normal laser welding machines.
