​The handheld welding and cleaning gun is compact, ergonomic and comfortable- perfect for welding and cleaning applications. The specially-designed nozzle tips and built-in wobble functionality allow for consistent high-quality welds. Additionally, the nozzle tips can be switched out quickly to accommodate fusion welding, wire welding, and cleaning!

The system is incredibly user-friendly, with clearly labeled rear connections that make getting started quick and easy. Just plug in the power cord and gas connection, attach the workpiece clamp, and you're ready to go. Laser power, gas, and gun control are delivered through a single cable, while an ethernet computer connection provides access to advanced settings to fine-tune and save up to 74 stored preset and user-defined process parameters! With this functionality, new welders can be trained and welding in a matter of hours, boosting productivity and efficiency.

  • Key switch control to prevent unauthorized access
  • Emergency-stop button for immediate shutdown in case of an emergency
  • Safety interlock to ensure integrity of laser delivery to the welding gun
  • 2-step weld gun trigger- enable and then fire, the laser for intentional operation
  • Part contact electrical interlock that turns off the laser power if the welding head is not in contact with the welded parts
  • Door switch interlock circuits that deactivate the laser if anyone other than the operator unexpectedly enters the welding area.
LightWELD's built in safety features are great but you still must always wear PPE- like the laser safety glasses and helmet with shield provided with your machine. You’ll also need laser-resistant and heat resistant gloves, caps, a leather apron and other laser-resistant and heat-resistant clothing. 

In addition to that, you'll want to keep those around you safe with a laser barrier. Learn about our recommended barrier options below!

Barriers

Safety is paramount for not only the LightWELD operator but also for those around. This is where laser barriers come in and there’s no one Earlbeck trusts more than LaserVision USA. They are a great resource for laser safety and recommendations. With Laser Curtains, Portable Laser Barriers, and Custom Laser Enclosures- they’ve got what you need or can do a custom application! You can find some of our favorite solutions below:
Picture
LaserVison USA's standard laser safety curtains are a great solution for immediate laser protection! They come in a variety of sizes that can be pieced together for larger coverage.. Easily connect multiple curtains together with hook and loop fasteners to build a curtain that best suits your needs. If you are looking for a laser protection up to 575 W/cm2*, then a framed laser safety curtain is the best option for you. This portable barrier wall can be custom built this with strong, anodized steel hardware, locking casters, and laser rated-material. This offers excellent protection in a small environment!

Looking for even more protection? Give the foldable laser safety panels a try. Built with versatility in mind, these systems have unique 360° hinges so you can move and position your barrier according to your needs! Then once you’re done, it’s easy to fold up and store taking up less space than most barrier systems!  Ranging from 2-6 panels, these are made with materials that have a laser safety rating of up to 10,000 W/cm2 for 100 seconds.

None of those work for your application? What about their custom modular barrier system? This is a wall module system with frame that is customized to fit your laser environment! You’re easily able to incorporate laser safety windows and doors. The modular design allows for fast and easy construction. Plus, each segment can be equipped with wheels for a more portable solution. Don't believe they're the best?
