Another of our services is Micro Laser Welding. This tool extends the microwelding capabilities and solves many overheating and distortion issues usually associated with welding. Some of the benefits of laser welding include:

• less distortion;
• very little or no heat sink;
• computer controlled heat and travel speed allow greater control of dilution;
• ability to use filler rods as small as .005 ";
• Micro-weld copper alloys and aluminum;
• welding in deep slots.

GCE is currently listed on qualified vendor lists for such companies as Boeing Corp, Breeze Eastern, Curtiss Wright, Engelhard-BASF, Grumman, Kearfott, Plessy, Northrop, Purolator, Smiths Aerospace, Unison Industries, and Valcor Engineering.
