When our first laser welders were designed and build, we did use at that time laser sources from famous names as IPG, Raycus, Coherent and Max photonics.
We quickly discovered that while these sources were excellent, they were not specifically designed for laser welding. We were unable to fine-tune them as we would have liked.
It was clear that these manufacturers built sources for the general market in order to accommodate as many applications as possible and to be able to generate larger quantities for more cost-effective production, but they were less specialised than what we desired.
Even though the sources were good, we made the decision to search for a more suitable laser source specifically designed for laser welding.
As fundamental requirements for building a real and 100% fully dedicated laser welding lasersource, we established the following significant criteria that our source needed to fullfill:
Highest effectiveness in energy-efficient with the minimum consumption in the market for maximum output of laser power.
Highest Wall plug Energy conversion factor
Maintain maximum welding power and duty during 24/24 at extreme low and high temperatures
Cooling system that is never affected by heat or cold and works always!
Cooling system brings the cold into the lasersource, not like others bringing the heat to the cooler
Easy to transport and carry
Compact
Ready to connect to a robot/cobot
Ready to use special or dedicated laser torches, different then our standard
High Level of Operator comfort and ergonomics
Superlight and compact welding torch, resisting till 3 kW
Durable, waterproof, and dustproof so that it may be used anywhere
Easy to repair!
Needed to look and to feel as a standard arc welding machine.
We succeed to build it like it had to be to become the best laser welder in the world.
