Carrs, the Laser Welding experts.
Carrs Welding Technologies Ltd, are laser welding specialists. Now with 9 different laser welding systems, Carrs can solve problems in industry where metal is missing or simply weld components together. 4 laser welders are repairing tools and machine components or even fire-arms. The other 5 laser welders are welding precision assemblies together from 0.1 mm accuracy's up to 10 mm thick.
Our customer list comprises a varying degree of blue chip clients including; MK Electric, Nissan Manufacturing UK, Muirhead Aerospace, RPC Containers, TRW, Philips, and a multitude of 2nd and 3rd tier suppliers in all manufacturing areas.
ISO 9001/2008 Quality Assurance
Carrs Welding Technologies Ltd are a registered ISO 9001/2008 company, ensuring customer satisfaction by increasing the quality of the service. Any quality problems are recorded and any trends monitored, so that improvements can be implemented at all stages of the process.
All of Carrs' suppliers of materials and tool-room services will have to be approved and monitored for their quality. This will help to guarantee the quality of their work.
Just some of the services that we can offer
- Laser welding
- Injection tool repairs
- Blow mould repair
- Firearm and shotgun repairing
- Brazing/soldering services
- Press tool repair
- Robotic laser welding
- Aluminium or Titanium welding
Aerospace
The high precision and quality of welding in the Aerospace industry is paramount to the success of many components. The repeatability of the laser welding whether pulsed or continuous wave is so high that the “black art“, has been taken out of the process. Low heat input and ease of welding high grades of stainless steel or titanium gives the laser the great reputation that it deserves.
- Small assemblies can be rotated and welded together with a filler wire or straight autogenous.
- Seam welds can be done on the robot and programmed in for repeatability and high quality.
Automotive
Carrs' work on both tooling and production work for the automotive industry including work for Bentley, Honda, Toyota, GM, Ford and Jaguar. From dash board tools to technical mouldings for mechanisms within the gearbox, Carrs are in the supply chain. Carrs also do work on a number of jobs which are welded and end on the car itself. A laser welded Philips bulb goes on all the Bentley vehicles for VW. 2% of the "K" series engine for Rover and Landrover, have been laser welded on casting defects to ensure a perfect seal on the “Fire Face”.
Electronics
Laser welding was made for electronic components, and is the single biggest user of Lasers in the world. Carrs have welded prototype semi-conductors for I.R and have welded small production runs of batteries for Motorola. Copper and aluminium are welded easily and cleanly with the Laser and although it makes both materials soft in the process, joint design can make up for any lack of material. For example if a wire connection is to be welded, allowing excess wire through the connection will leave a domed welded connection. The bigger the dome required, the more you stick through the hole.
Medical Industry
Carrs have been welding medical tooling for many years, where the slightest worn edge on a mould would produce a life threatening flash on a component. The added benefit of keeping the tool original is that there is no need to seek approval for the part again after repair. A new insert would need a re-qualification of the product and delay production by many weeks. Carrs also weld surgeons tool and knifing assemblies for medical applications. Laser welding is used to fabricate small medical assemblies as picture here or as a means of filling the "bug-traps" on larger assemblies so contamination cannot leak out of crevices.
Racing
When "one off" engineered components are your business, then welding has got to be part of the solution. Carrs have welded steering racks, to suspension arms for F1 and Rally teams. So whether a Titanium stub axle needs cladding or an exhaust system needs a new piece welding in, talk to Carrs.
Laser welding is the only way to weld thin gauge steels or aluminium, so if you make fabricated parts to minimise weight and maximise performance, then please E-mail us here to discuss the design.
Tooling
Carrs weld worn tooling where edges or "washout" has occurred and metal is required to replace the missing material. Tool steels such as H13, or P20 can be matched precisely to give the original qualities of the materials.
Carrs work for hundreds of toolmakers all over the UK & Ireland.
