Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Verschweißen und/oder Trennschweißen von planen Kunststoffkörpern, vorzugsweise Kunststoffolien oder Kunststoff olienbahnen, mittels Laserstrahlen, wobei die Verschweißung und/oder Trennverschweißung berüh rungslos nur mittels eines Laserstrahles mit einer Wellenlänge im Durchlässigkeitsbereich des Kunststoffes von größer als 50%, in einem be stimmten einzuhaltenden Abstand der zu ver schweißenden aufeinanderliegenden Kunststoff olien oder Kunststoffolienbahnen von dem Laser strahler erfolgt.The present invention relates to a method and a device for welding and / or Separation welding of flat plastic bodies, preferably plastic films or plastic lienbahnen, by means of laser beams, the Touch welding and / or separating welding only with a laser beam a wavelength in the transmission range of the Plastic of more than 50% in one be agreed to keep the distance to be ver welding superimposed plastic foils or plastic sheeting from the laser spotlight.
Es ist bereits bekannt, Kunststoffolien durch scharf gebündelte Laserstrahlen zu trennen. Wei terhin ist es bekannt, Kunststoffolien mittels solchen Laserstrahlen durch Strahlenabsorption, vorzugsweise im Absorptionsmaximum, miteinander zu verschweißen.It is already known to go through plastic films to separate sharply focused laser beams. Wei terhin it is known to use plastic films such laser beams through radiation absorption, preferably in the absorption maximum, with each other to weld.
Ferner ist ein Verfahren zum Trennschweißen von Kunststoffolien mit Laserstrahlen in der DE-PS 28 41 062 beschrieben. Hierbei wird lediglich zum Schneiden oder Trennen ein scharf gebündel ter, also punktförmig fokussierter Laserstrahl und zum Verschweißen bzw. Verschmelzen der dabei entstandenen Schnittränder ein zweiter Laserstrahl mit größerem Durchmesser verwendet. Hierzu sind mindestens zwei verschiedene Laser strahlen oder eine Aufteilung des Laserstrahles sowie eine komplizierte Optik und eine Justie rung erforderlich.Furthermore, a method for the separation welding of Plastic films with laser beams in DE-PS 28 41 062. This is just a sharp bundle for cutting or separating ter, i.e. point-focused laser beam and for welding or fusing them together resulting cut edges a second Larger diameter laser beam used. There are at least two different lasers for this radiate or a division of the laser beam as well as a complicated look and a justie required.
Darüber hinaus ist die Herstellung einer Schweißnaht als Verbindungsstelle von zwei Fo lien nach diesem Verfahren nicht möglich.In addition, the manufacture of a Weld seam as a connection point between two fo not possible using this procedure.
Ziel und Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung war es daher, die vorgenannten Nachteile zu vermei den und plane Kunststoffkörper aus mindestens zwei Folien oder Folienbahnen durch Verschwei ßung und/oder Trennschweißung mit nur einem La serstrahl ohne aufwendige optische Maßnahmen und ohne Aufteilung des Laserstrahles herzustellen.The aim and object of the present invention was it is therefore to avoid the aforementioned disadvantages the and plan plastic body from at least two foils or foil webs by welding ß and / or separation welding with only one La serstrahl without complex optical measures and to manufacture without dividing the laser beam.
Ziel und Aufgabe ist es weiterhin, verwellungs freie Schweißnähte und/oder Trennahtschweißungen von plan aufeinanderliegenden Kunststoffolien oder Kunststoffolienbahnen zu erzielen.The aim and task is still to be curly free welds and / or parting welds of flat plastic films or to achieve plastic sheeting.
Erfindungsgemäß wurde festgestellt, daß diesen Zielen und Aufgaben ein Verfahren zum Verschwei ßen und/oder Trennschweißen von planen Kunst stoffkörpern, vorzugsweise Kunststoffolien oder Kunststoffolienbahnen, mittels Laserstrahlen gerecht wird, wobei die Verschweißung und/oder Trennschweißung berührungslos mittels eines La serstrahles mit einer Wellenlänge im Durchläs sigkeitsbereich des Kunststoffes von größer als 50%, vorzugsweise 400-2000 nm, erfolgt, der Abstand der zu verschweißenden aufeinanderliegenden Kunststoffolien oder Kunst stoffolienbahnen von dem Laserstrahler größer ist als der Abstand des Laserstrahlers vom Punkt der maximalen Intensität des fokussierten Laser strahles, so daß der fokussierte Laserstrahl durch die Kunststoffolien oder Kunststoffolien bahnen außerhalb oder unterhalb dieses Punktes hindurchtritt und die Kunststoffolien oder Kunststoffolienbahnen im Durchtrittspunkt oder -bereich verschweißt und/oder trennverschweißt.According to the invention it was found that this Goals and tasks a procedure for welding Eating and / or welding of flat art fabric bodies, preferably plastic films or Plastic sheeting, using laser beams is justified, the welding and / or Non-contact separation welding using a La with a wavelength in the pass range of the plastic of greater than 50%, preferably 400-2000 nm, takes place Distance of the welded superimposed plastic films or art fabric sheets from the laser emitter larger is the distance of the laser emitter from the point the maximum intensity of the focused laser beam, so that the focused laser beam through the plastic films or plastic films orbits outside or below this point passes through and the plastic films or Plastic sheeting at the point of passage or - area welded and / or welded separately.
Durch die innerhalb des Verfahrens verwendete Wellenlänge in Kombination mit dem während der Ausübung des Verfahrens einzuhaltenden Abstand des Laserstrahlers von den Kunststoffolien oder Kunststoffolienbahnen, der gemäß dem erfindungs gemäßen Verfahren größer sein muß als der Ab stand des Laserstrahlers vom Punkt der maximalen Intensität, gelingt es plane Kunststoffkörper, vorzugsweise Kunststoffolien und/oder Kunst stoffolienbahnen miteinander verwellungsfrei zu verschweißen und/oder eine Trennschweißung durchzuführen, ohne daß mehrere Laserstrahlen, insbesondere Laserstrahlen unterschiedlicher Wellenlänge und/oder Richtung oder eine Auftei lung des Laserstrahles, z.B. durch Prismen, er forderlich wird.By the used within the procedure Wavelength in combination with that during the Practice the distance to be observed the laser emitter from the plastic films or Plastic sheeting, which according to the Invention the procedure must be greater than the Ab the laser emitter stood at the point of maximum Intensity, flat plastic bodies succeed, preferably plastic films and / or art fabric sheeting with each other without curling weld and / or a separation weld without multiple laser beams, especially different laser beams Wavelength and / or direction or a division the laser beam, e.g. through prisms, he becomes necessary.
Nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Ver fahrens werden die zu verschweißenden Kunst stoffolien oder Kunststoffolienbahnen vor dem Verschweißen oder Trennschweißen jeweils ge trennt elektrostatisch aufgeladen und danach plan aufeinandergelegt. Durch die elektrostatische Aufladung haften die planen Kunststoffolien auch während der Verschweißung und/oder der Trennschweißung eng aneinander, so daß Verwellungen, unerwünschte Schweißfehler und dgl. vermieden werden.According to a preferred embodiment of the Ver are the art to be welded fabric films or plastic film webs before Welding or separation welding each ge separates electrostatically charged and then laid on top of each other.
