Abstract: Systems and methods for laser welding are disclosed. A laser welding system includes a manually operated laser welding torch to direct laser power to a workpiece to generate a puddle during a laser welding operation. The welding system includes a controller to regulate activation and regulation of the laser power based on user inputs, sensor inputs, and/or synergic control of a laser power source.

Abstract: A welding gun adapted to secure a contact tip within the welding gun without threading the contact tip and without the use of tools. The contact tip may be adapted to abut a surface of a first member disposed within the welding gun. The surface may be a surface of a gas diffuser. The surface may be adapted to abut the contact tip. The contact tip also may be adapted for abutment with a second member to urge the contact tip toward the first member. The second member may be a portion of a nozzle adapted to abut the contact tip to urge the contact tip toward the surface of the first member. A method of assembling a welding gun also is provided. The method may include disposing a contact tip between a first and a second member and capturing the contact tip between the first and second members.

Abstract: A threadless contact tip for a wire-feed welding implement is disclosed, comprising a channel extending through the threadless contact tip, the channel configured to route welding electrode therethrough, a tip end portion having a single outlet, wherein welding electrode routed through the channel exits the threadless contact tip through the outlet, and an outer portion extending at least partially around the threadless contact tip to enable a movable member to urge the threadless contact tip towards the welding implement. The threadless contact tip may also have an elongated body, a tip end portion, and a shoulder. A method of securing a threadless contact tip to a wire-feed welding implement is also disclosed, comprising the steps of positioning the threadless contact tip with respect to the wire-feed welding implement, and urging the threadless contact tip towards the wire-feed welding implement with the outer portion in abutment with a movable member.
