LightWELD enables dramatically faster welding, is easier to learn and operate, and provides higher-quality,consistent results across a wider range of materials and thicknesses than MIG or TIG with minimal distortion,undercut or burn-through. The heat affected zone is dramatically minimized, as is the need for traditionalpost-processing grinding or polishing for increased productivity, less scrap and lower cost-per-part.

LightWELD Laser Welding
High Speed Up to 4X Faster than traditional methods - increased productivity for lower costs-per-part
High Quality Consistent welding of thick, thin and reflective metals without distortion, undercut or burn-through - minimal heat affected zone
Easy to Use Simple set up, easy to learn and operate for consistent high-quality welds
Enhanced Material Capability Metals with dissimilar thicknesses, ultra-thin parts, copper welding, materials with low and high electrical conductivity
Wobble Welding Up to 5 mm of additional weld width - increases capability and creates highly aesthetic seams
Operator Safety Multi-level sensors and interlock safety features

SAFETY FEATURES:

LightWELD is a Class IV laser system and routine precautions are required for the safe operation of the equipment.

 

BUILT-IN FEATURES INCLUDE:

  • Key switch control of laser source and Emergency-stopbutton ensure deliberate operation
  • Fiber laser interlock verifies integrity of laser deliveryto the welding gun
  • 2-step weld gun trigger, enable and then fire, forintentional operation
  • Part contact electrical interlock turns off the laser powerif the welding head is not in contact with the welded parts

 

Operators must wear all recommended personal protective equipment (PPE), including the IPG laser safety glassesand IPG helmet with shield provided with LightWELD™, laser-resistant and heat resistant gloves, caps, leather apronand other laser-resistant and heat-resistant clothing.

CONTROL PANEL AND CONNECTIONS:

Laser power up to 1500 W is easily adjusted with intuitive controls to quickly dial in optimum weld settings for various materials and thicknesses. With 74 stored preset and user-defined process parameters, novice welders can be trained and welding in a matter of hours. Select stored modes provide up to 2500 W of high peak power for even greater welding capability.

Clearly labeled rear connections make getting started fast and easy. Laser delivery, gas and gun control is pre-wired in a 5 m (optional 10 m) cable. Just plug in the power cord and gas connection, attach the clamp to your worksurface and you are ready to go. An ethernet connection provides access to advanced parameter settings to fine tune and save process parameters.

HANDHELD GUN & NOZZLE TIPS:

The handheld welding gun is compact, ergonomic and proven to be the most comfortable, well balanced and easyto use gun available with a selection of nozzle tips to optimize different joint types. The light weight and built-inwobble functionality enables operators to produce high-quality welds consistently throughout the day and safelywith its 2-step trigger.
