AMADA WELD TECH, a leading manufacturer of welding, marking, cutting, sealing, and bonding equipment and systems, exhibited at MD&M West at the Anaheim Convention Center, February 4-6, 2025. The exhibit highlighted the company’s latest products with an emphasis on reliability, quality, and innovation.
The company highlighted the recently released WL-300A Galvo Laser Welding System. The WL-300A is integrated with a continuous wave (CW) fiber laser and features 4 axes of motion and on-and off-axis camera observations in a compact Class 1 enclosure. It is integrated with the MM-L400A laser welding process monitor, a compact unit that provides in situ judgement of weld quality by monitoring workpiece gaps, surface condition and focus accuracy. Utilizing its advanced capabilities, the system can differentiate between good and bad welds through a comparison of data making it an invaluable tool for maintaining high-quality production standards.
Known industry-wide for producing reliable, highly durable resistance welding equipment, AMADA WELD TECH demonstrated the UB-1500A Low Power Linear DC Micro Spot Welder with the SL-321A Light Force Motorized 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, the company demontrated the WM-200A IIoT-ready, networked weld monitor. The monitor will collect high-resolution waveform data from the UB-1500A/SL-321A for instantaneous comparison of good/bad signals and data collection for statistical analysis of the process. The company also showed a range of handheld and desktop weld monitoring solutions to aid in production or process troubleshooting.
The SIGMA® LS laser micromachining subsystem is a femtosecond laser-integrated module designed for high-precision processing versatility. The small form factor and integration-ready design make SIGMA LS ideal for machine builders and system integrators, as well as contract manufacturers, job shops, and R&D laboratories.
Also on display was the SIGMA® Laser Stent and Tube Cutter, a high-precision system that offers exceptional accuracy and versatility for cutting stents and small tubes. It features high-speed linear motors and a state-of-the-art digital controller to minimize tool path cycle time. The system offers options for fiber or femtosecond lasers, enabling a fast and stable cutting process.
Additionally, AMADA WELD TECH and AMADA PRESS SYSTEM showcased their synergistic capabilities at MD&M West, demonstrating how their technologies complement each other in the medical device manufacturing process. Visitors were able to see how AMADA PRESS SYSTEM’s WH-2A, a 13-axis CNC dual-point coiling machine, excels in ultra-fine wire coil processing for medical guide wire formation. This precision coiling process can be combined with AMADA WELD TECH’s advanced welding and laser processing solutions, such as the WL-300A laser processing workstation for welding coiled guidewires. The combination of AMADA PRESS SYSTEM’s expertise in forming delicate wire structures and AMADA WELD TECH’s proficiency in micro-welding and laser processing creates a comprehensive solution for medical device manufacturers.
