LightWELD®
Handheld Laser Welding Systems
Material & Thickness Welding Range
Weld thick, thin, reflective, and dissimilar metals that are difficult or impossible with traditional methods, as well as materials with different electrical conductivity.
- High-speed welding across a wide range of materials and thicknesses
- Low heat input for minimal part distortion or deformation
- Built-in factory presets for all materials and thicknesses
- Weld with or without wire

“The travel speed and diversity of materials that can be welded is unbelievable”
Pre-Weld Cleaning
- Contaminants can enter the weld pool and compromise weld integrity
- Pulsed cleaning power up to 2500 W peak power evaporates undesired surface elements
- Fast and effective removal of contaminants such as oxides, rust, paint, oil, or grease from surface without the use of chemicals or abrasives
- Up to 0.6" of adjustable cleaning width with one pass
Post-Weld Cleaning
- Post-weld cleaning removes soot, debris, or any sign of localized heating
- Dramatically reduces time, cost, and scrap
- Create visually appealing welds while eliminating need for post-grinding
- Up to 0.6" of adjustable cleaning width in one pass
Built-in Wobble Welding
- Simple on-the-fly control of up to 0.2" of additional weld width with selectable frequencies for parts with imperfect fit-up
- Creates wider, more attractive seams
- Wobble parameters are preprogrammed and can be saved by the operator and recalled immediately as needed
- In cleaning mode, the wobble function provides adjustable cleaning scan widths up to 0.6"
Optional Wire Feeding Package
- Wire welding capability extends laser welding applications to increase the weld bead size or overcome poor part fit-up
- Can be used for stainless steel, mild steel, galvanized steel, nickel alloys, aluminum, copper, and brass
- Wire feed speed range 40 – 0.4 - 230 ipm (1 - 600 cm/min)
- Wire diameter capacity 0.030" - 0.063" (0.8 mm - 1.6 mm)
- Wire feed tips: 0.030", 0.035", 0.045", 0.063" (0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.6 mm)
- 4X V-groove drive rolls and steel liners for hard wire, 4X U-groove drive rolls, and Teflon liners for soft wire
- Package includes wire feed unit, electrical connections, nozzle assembly, and LightWELD wire welding presets
