Estes Design and Manufacturing Introducing 3D Laser Welding Whitepaper Series
Estes Design and Manufacturing is excited to launch a 3D Laser Welding Whitepaper series. These whitepapers will be written by Estes’ resident expert, Jay Reddick. Jay has been with Estes since the beginning. In 2009, when Estes decided to invest in leading-edge technology in the laser welding market, Jay was integral in the R & D effort, experimenting on corner welds in cold rolled steel. Estes developed much of the team’s expertise with laser welding in-house and is still one of the few job shops in the country with laser welding capabilities. Jay has 46 years of experience with MIG, TIG, and laser welding in a production environment. He served as a board president of Blue River Career Programs of Shelbyville, Indiana and as an advisor to the welding program at Central Nine Career Center in Greenwood, Indiana. Jay has also presented at ALAW (Advanced Laser Applications Workshop) on laser welding challenges within a job shop environment.
Estes’ website and eBook cover the basics of laser welding, demonstrating how laser welding is a fast, efficient, and precise alternative to traditional welding techniques and suitable for a wide range of projects. However, this whitepaper series will take a deeper dive into the benefits, cost savings, and applications of 3D laser welding.
