Laser micro-welding offers an effective method for joining a wide range of metal and organic materials. At Potomac, we frequently use pulsed infrared lasers to weld metals and thermoplastics with precision. Achieving optimal results requires careful control of laser energy and pulse duration, along with proper part fixturing to ensure accuracy and consistency.
Precision dispensing of epoxy is often a highly effective method for assembling electronic and optical devices. Potomac has experience with precision placement of epoxies in dot sizes as small as 150 microns, as well as use of encapsulation and underfill compounds.
