Abstract
A laser welding device is configured to weld a material using a laser beam. The device can include a laser scanner configured to supply a laser beam to weld a material, at least a pair of bars configured to press the material, and a cover configured to shield the laser beam applied to the material.
Claims20
A laser welding device comprising:
- a laser scanner configured to supply a laser beam to weld a material;
- and
- at least a pair of bars configured to press the material to be welded, the pair of bars including a first bar and a second bar,
- wherein a position of each of the first bar and the second bar with respect to the material is adjustable based on a surface of the material that each of the first and second bars face.

A laser welding system comprising:
- a laser welding device configured to weld a material using a laser beam, wherein the laser welding device comprises:
- at least a pair of bars configured to press the material to be welded, the pair of bars including a first bar and a second bar;
- and
- a cover configured to shield the laser beam applied to the material;
- a multi-axis robot on which the laser welding device is mounted and configured to guide a movement path of the laser welding device;
- and
- a controller configured to control operations of the laser welding device and the multi-axis robot, wherein the controller is configured to adjust a position of each of the first bar and the second bar with respect to the material based on a surface of the material that each of the first bar and the second bar face.
