Pillow Plate Welding

Mavenlaser is a professional manufacturer and solution provider of industrial laser equipment based in Shenzhen, China. We focus on the R&D, production and global export of pillow plate heat exchanger automatic fiber laser welding machines, radiator & condenser laser welding equipment, and 6-axis robot gasketing laser welding systems for pillow plates.
Pillow plate heat exchangers are fully welded heat transfer components with wavy pillow-shaped surfaces formed by inflation, which are more flexible than traditional shell and tube heat exchangers & plate and frame heat exchangers and widely adopted in the process industry. Mavenlaser has accumulated rich experience in pillow plate sheet welding technology, and independently developed full-automatic production lines with automatic feeding and continuous welding functions for large-size pillow plates. Our standard working areas cover 1500×3000mm, 1500×6000mm and 1500×12000mm, and customized sizes are acceptable.
Our laser welding machines comply with DIN, GB, ISO, JIS, BA, ANSI, ASMI international standards, supporting stainless steel, titanium TA2 and Hastelloy pillow plate sheets of various thickness combinations. We supply complete turnkey solutions for food & beverage, chemical, pharmaceutical, meat processing and new energy cooling industries, with FOB factory price available and 24-month global warranty service.

1. Hydraulic Clamping System for Anti-deformation Welding

The segmented hydraulic clamping device is the core design to guarantee flat welding surface:
  1. When pillow plate sheets are delivered to the welding zone, hydraulic fixtures tightly lock a 100mm welding area;
  2. After finishing the 100mm seam, the hydraulic cylinder lifts automatically, the sheet moves backward 100mm by servo motor, then clamping & welding repeat cyclically until the whole plate is fully welded;
  3. Uniform multi-point hydraulic pressure eliminates sheet warping & thermal deformation during welding, ensures consistent weld penetration and improves air tightness of finished pillow plates.

2. High-performance Wobble Weld Head

Our fiber laser welding machine is equipped with industrial wobble welding heads (WSX / RayTools / Precitec optional), supporting adjustable laser beam width, wobble frequency and amplitude for flexible process optimization.
  • 4 standard wobble modes: CW/CCW Circle, Linear, Eight, Infinity
  • Fully sealed lightweight structure with high laser power bearing capacity, improves laser energy conversion rate
  • Weld width adjustable from 0.5mm to 5mm, smooth welding surface without secondary polishing
  • Compatible with multiple metal materials and mixed thickness plates

3. Full Automatic Servo Feeding & Continuous Welding Line

Integrated with automatic roller feeding table, X/Y/Z 3-axis servo driving system, intelligent control cabinet and external HD CCD monitoring camera. The whole production line realizes unmanned automatic feeding, positioning, clamping and cyclic welding, greatly cutting labor cost and boosting mass production efficiency of pillow plate heat exchangers.
