IPG Photonics Corporation has announced that it has acquired Laser Depth Dynamics (LDD), a provider of in-process quality monitoring and control solutions for laser-based welding applications.
LDD's inline coherent imaging (ICI) technology is an industrial solution to enable direct measurement of weld penetration depth with high precision and in real time by adding a near-infrared measurement beam to the welding head. LDD's solutions also support advanced monitoring features, including seam tracking, height following and 3D volume imaging. LDD's imaging systems can be integrated with welding head technologies, including IPG's wobble welding heads for deep penetration welding.
