Its push-pull wire feeding system improves wire-feed accuracy and stability. An optimized optical system, efficient shielding-gas flow structure and water-cooled collimating and focusing assemblies support fast, high-quality and stable continuous welding. Best For Automated laser welding systems requiring stable filler-wire delivery. Medium-power fiber laser welding applications rated up to 6000W. Applications requiring wider weld seams and reduced porosity through beam wobble. Production lines requiring push-pull wire feeding for improved accuracy and consistency. System integrators who need optional CCD illumination, position sensing or temperature monitoring. Key Features Up to 6000W: Designed for medium-power laser filler-wire welding applications. Push-pull wire feeding: Improves wire-feed accuracy, response and stability during welding. Four wobble patterns: Supports circle, square, line and figure-eight welding patterns. Improved weld quality: Beam wobble helps increase weld width, reduce porosity and improve surface finish. Optimized optical design: Supports high-speed, high-quality filler-wire laser welding. Efficient gas-flow structure: Provides improved shielding of the molten weld pool. Water-cooled optics: The collimating and focusing lens assemblies include water-cooling modules for stable continuous operation. Multiple wire sizes: Optional nozzles and feeding wheels are available for 0.8, 1.0, 1.2 and 1.6mm welding wire. Optional monitoring modules: Supports blue-light CCD illumination, position sensing and temperature sensing configurations. Wobble Welding Capability The BG-GW460 uses selectable wobble patterns to increase the effective weld width and improve process flexibility. Wobble pattern Typical benefit Circle Produces balanced heat distribution and increased weld coverage. Square Provides broader coverage for joints requiring a wider weld area. Line Suitable for controlled linear oscillation across the weld joint. Figure-eight Supports wider, overlapping beam movement and improved molten-pool mixing.

Confirm the required wire material and diameter: 0.8, 1.0, 1.2 or 1.6mm. Select matching coaxial nozzles and push/pull wire-feeding wheels. Confirm whether CCD illumination, position sensing or temperature sensing is required. Confirm the robot interface, control signals, cooling configuration and safety interlocks. Confirm the required cable and wire-feeding tube lengths before placing the order. Installation, commissioning and maintenance must be performed by trained laser-system professionals. FAQ Is the BG-GW460 a complete laser welding machine? No. It is a laser welding-head system for integration with a compatible laser source, robot or motion system, chiller, gas supply and safety enclosure. What laser power does the BG-GW460 support? The supplied manual identifies the BG-GW460 as a 6kW laser welding head for medium-power filler-wire welding applications. What wobble patterns are available? The controller supports circle, square, line and figure-eight wobble patterns. Which welding-wire diameters are supported? Optional coaxial nozzles and feeding wheels are available for 0.8, 1.0, 1.2 and 1.6mm wire. The selected nozzle and wheel must match the wire diameter and material. Why does the BG-GW460 use push-pull wire feeding? The push-pull arrangement helps maintain more accurate and stable wire delivery between the wire spool, push feeder and welding head. What is the standard working distance? The manual specifies a standard reference distance of 261 ± 2.5mm. Final focus should be verified during professional commissioning. What cooling-water flow is required? The manual specifies a minimum flow of 1.8L/min, an inlet pressure of approximately 0.4MPa and an inlet temperature above the dew point. Are the wire-feeding nozzles and wheels included? The manual lists the welding head without the wire-feeding nozzle and feeding wheels. These items must be selected according to the required wire diameter and confirmed in the quotation. What information is needed before ordering? Please provide the laser-source model and power, fiber interface, robot or motion platform, material, thickness, joint type, wire material and diameter, cooling system and required optional modules.
