Use case · Beam shaping
Plug & play beam shaping for plastic welding.
Complex plastic components in e-mobility demand high thermal and chemical resistance, pushing laser welding to its limits. Integrated directly into Evosys’ platform, our beam shaping made these high-performance plastics weldable in series.

Challenge
- Complex plastic components in e-mobility need high thermal and chemical resistance
- These high-performance plastics push conventional laser welding to its limits
- Automotive and medical parts demand reproducible, zero-defect seams
Result
- Welds high-performance plastics previously unsuited for laser welding
- Delivers stable, reproducible seams even on complex geometries
- Hits zero rejects, meeting automotive and medical quality standards
- Integrates smoothly, plug & play, into the existing Evosys platform
Beam shaping isn’t a lab add-on: Evosys was convinced enough to adopt our beam shaping into their production platform, turning “not weldable” into a qualified series process.
Setup & conditions:
Midel Photonics beam shaping integrated into an Evosys laser plastic-welding platform. Micrographs compare seams without and with beam shaping (1 mm scale).
