LC Lasers LC-WELD PRO 1500W Handheld Fibre Laser Welder

Introducing the LC Lasers LC-WELD PRO 1500W handheld fibre laser welding machine - The first European manufactured handheld laser welding machine to hit the UK market. Capable of welding up to 5MM thick mild steel, stainless steel, galvanised steel, titanium & other special alloys in single pass, with miniminal material deformation,

The laser welding machine has a high quality fibre laser and is designed to be easy and comfortable to use, it has an integrated interactive control system that can vary the finish, depth an width of the weld, according to the work to be done depending on the surface

The LC-WELD PRO is the latest and most advanced laser welding equipment made by LC Lasers. This device is equipped with new functionalities and is designed to be much more user-friendly than its previous generation. 

It features a newly designed gun, a 40% more efficient laser generator, and a new software system that has been specifically designed for laser welding. With this new program, users have full control over different welding parameters, and it allows for three work functionalities to adapt to each user's specific needs. The technical help system is also built into the equipment, providing assistance as needed, and the system allows for the control of welding costs and statistics to help with budgeting.

One of the most significant benefits of this equipment is its ability to work with or without material input. The LC-WELD PRO uses fiber laser welding, allowing it to work on surfaces such as stainless steel sheets, carbon steel, or galvanized sheets, eliminating the need for the arc welding system. The high-speed welding with very fast welds makes this a highly efficient process, with minimal deformation and a focused and reduced heat input on the material. This means that labor requirements are minimal, and the device can produce high-quality welds with minimal heat input.

In addition to its superior welding capabilities, the LC-WELD PRO has other advantages over traditional welding methods. For example, it produces low fume, works well on very small and detailed seams, eliminates the need for later polishing, and creates minimal heat input. All of these benefits make the LC-WELD PRO a valuable addition to any welding operation, improving efficiency, speed, and overall quality.

Key noteable features include:

• Removeable wire feed unit with capacity for 15KG (300MM) wire reels.
• Touch screen control panel.
• High quality laser tube.
• Wheels for enhanced mobility.
• Robust laser welding gun with galvanometric motors.
• Interchangeable gun nozzles for various types of welding seam.

As well as the noteable machine features, users cannot ignore the incredible benefits of utilising a laser welding system. These include:

• Incredible increase in production speeds - welding up to 60MM per second.
• Unrivalled ease of use, thus minimising training and staffing costs.
• High quality, clean & discolouration free welds.
• Energy efficiency unrivalled by any electric arc welding machine, making for a greener, more environmentally friendly company.

The LC-WELD PRO 1500W offers 3 ways of control: BASIC, ADVANCED & JOBS. The BASIC control allows hte user to work for a selection of pre-configured parameters, dependent on the materials type, thickness & joint position. The ADVANCE control method allows the user to work with total freedom & control over the welding parameters. JOBS allows the user to work from previously established tasks, recalling them from memory for speedy switching between work tasks.

Multiple different users can be set up on the system, with differing levels of permissions. Permission settings control which users can control what within the system. This software was designed by LC lasers themselves. In addition to designing an easy to use, intuitive control software they have also amde it possible to allow remote technical assistance on the machine, should you require any assistance. This means downtime is minimised significantly.

Another major factor in the uptake of handheld fibre laser welding systems is the fact that companies can utilise cost control and statistics which provides them deep insight into actual job costs. For example, the LC-WELD PRO 1500W tracks total weld time, length welded, gas consumtions, electricity consumption, labour costs & then "spits out" a cost per meter of weld. This allows companies to cost jobs more accurately, thus becoming more competitive and profitable.

Laser welding safety

The importance of safety when laser welding cannot be understated. Laser welding machines are a class 4 laser product, meaning they can cause serious bodily harm to humans if misused. We strongly encourage anyone considering utilising laser welding within their organisation to consider what safety aspects are required. For example, we strongly encourage all users to have the following equipment

• Safety glasses - Mandatory for working with lasers, DLB 6 protection level required.
• Clear safety mask - Necessary for protection against the UV light which is generated by the welding process.
• Laser welding safety cabin or "cell" - Must conform to safety standard IEC 60825-4. Cabins must be "light tight" so as to ensure laser light does not escape and harm persons in vicinity.

In addition to offer laser welding, marking & cleaning machines we also supply and install custom built laser welding cabins / cells.
