What it is

The Rofin welder-R1 is a laser welder. The model is the Rofin Performance 7002. The machine is intended for manual laser fusion welding. The Rofin Performance 7002 enables fabrication activities that require fusion welding of various metals.[1][2]

How it works

The Rofin Performance 7002 has a dynamic foot switch for sensitive control of laser power output. The Rofin Performance 7002 provides pulse shaping to preset pulse shapes for many materials. The Rofin Performance 7002 is configured for precision welding of highly reflective metals and alloys. The Rofin Performance 7002 produces weld spots with diameters of less than 0.1 mm.[1][2]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Laser welding tools of this class are generally used in assembly and packaging flows rather than in front-end wafer patterning. Such tools are commonly placed after parts have been fabricated, cleaned, and prepared for joining. Laser welding is often followed by inspection, leak checking, or additional assembly operations, depending on the package or device being built.

Applications

The Rofin Performance 7002 is used for fusion welding of various metals. The Rofin Performance 7002 is intended for precision welding of highly reflective metals and alloys.[1][2]

  • Manual laser fusion welding
  • Fabrication activities requiring fusion welding of various metals
