This article introduces multiple laser auto-focus (AF) methods—including optical, image, and laser-induced techniques—alongside deformable mirror applications for precise focal control.
Optical-based AF delivers high accuracy and fast response, image-based AF handles complex surfaces flexibly, and laser-induced AF offers excellent interference resistance.
Adaptive optics using deformable mirrors enables rapid (up to 2 kHz) and accurate focus shifts, paving the way for intelligent, high-speed laser processing systems.
 

This paper presents a novel approach using cut steel-wire particles in multi-pass laser welding of 50 mm SM490A steel plates, achieving full penetration and enhanced weld quality. Optimized parameters produced welds with superior strength, acceptable toughness, and graded microstructure from the root to the final pass. The study offers a simplified, cost-effective method that minimizes defects and provides strategic guidance for thick-plate laser welding.

This paper systematically analyzes the effects of laser parameters—such as wavelength, scanning speed, and pulse duration—on the color outcomes in laser-induced metal coloring processes.

Different combinations of these parameters lead to the formation of distinct microstructures and oxide films, resulting in varied surface colors.

The study provides a theoretical foundation for achieving high-precision, pollution-free, and controllable colored metal processing.

Laser-arc hybrid welding effectively integrates laser precision and arc flexibility, offering advantages in medium-thick plate welding. Process parameters such as laser power, welding speed, and current have significant effects on porosity formation and weld quality. Optimizing these parameters enhances keyhole stability and greatly reduces welding defects, improving joint reliability.

Laser welding has become a key enabling technology in electric vehicle battery manufacturing due to its precision, speed, and compatibility with automation.
Dissimilar metal joints like Al–Cu, Al–Fe, and Cu–Fe present challenges such as brittle intermetallics and porosity, requiring advanced techniques and process optimization.
Future improvements lie in intelligent heat control, use of interlayers, and innovations like beam shaping and AI-driven welding strategies.
