Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a diamond precision machining method, in particular to a diamond laser welding surface coating method. Background Art
[0002] Diamond has unique advantages in industrial applications such as laser welding due to its excellent hardness and thermal conductivity. However, traditional diamond laser welding faces a challenge: the surface has limited absorption capacity for laser light, resulting in low welding efficiency, and it is difficult to achieve precise control of welding temperature.
[0003] Current surface coating technologies mainly use single-layer or traditional multi-layer designs, but these solutions are difficult to find an ideal balance between light absorption, temperature control and coating stability. Traditional coatings often cause the surface temperature of diamond to be too high under high-power lasers, which in turn causes lattice cracks and other thermal damage, limiting the widespread application of diamond in laser welding.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new coating technology that can improve the absorption efficiency of diamond to lasers by cleverly designing a multilayer structure and accurately control the surface temperature of diamond during laser welding. This innovation is expected to improve the efficiency and stability of diamond laser welding, while reducing the risk of lattice fracture and thermal damage, and promote the widespread use of diamond in high-performance laser applications. The research and development of new coating technology will bring revolutionary breakthroughs to diamond laser welding and provide more reliable welding solutions for industrial manufacturing, electronic equipment manufacturing and other high-precision fields. At the same time, this technology is also expected to reduce energy consumption, improve production efficiency, and make positive contributions to the development of sustainable manufacturing and advanced industrial technologies.
