The ever increasing competitive pressure caused by the worldwide development of ship building capacities requires the application of innovative and highly efficient production technologies in German shipyards. Due to the increase of welding speed and to the increased degree of mechanization, fully mechanised, sensor-supported vertical-down welding (FaSek) entails considerable economic advantages in the joining of vertical welds compared with the currently applied manual vertical-up welding. This is achieved by using the laser-beam GMA hybrid welding method with additional, oppositely arranged GMA torch.
