IPG Photonics LightWELD handheld Laser welder Benefits

Earlbeck Gases is now the IPG Photonics mid-Atlantic distributor for their line of LightWELD handheld welding systems- the best laser welding machines on the market. 

LightWELD’s advanced fiber laser technology allows for an easier, faster, and more aesthetic welding process than its traditional counterparts. This lightweight, handheld unit can weld up to four times faster than other welding systems. Contrary to MIG and TIG methods, a wide-ranging assortment of thicknesses and materials can be welded, including those with dissimilar electrical conductivities. 

With an impressively low heat input, the heat-affected zone is minimized—creating a higher-quality finish with zero distortion. This also means less undercut or burn-through, which makes for a welding experience that’s the opposite of frustrating. Fabricators will also benefit from a more streamlined process. With LightWELD, welding fixtures are simpler, and there is no pre- or post-weld clean up.

Controls are intuitive and come with built-in factory presets, allowing new welders to learn within a matter of hours which is especially important in today’s labor market. John Morash, founder and CEO of the Morash Institute of Welding, said of LightWELD: “In my forty-one years in the business, I have never seen a welder that allows beginners to make welds like seasoned pros!”

With LightWELD’s enhanced flexibility and precision, as well as its easy-to-learn controls, users will undoubtedly reduce labor costs—and in turn increase their production and profits.
