Lightwelder15 Portable Laser
$17,800.00 Ex. GST
Lightwelder15 is the latest generation in laser welders, with very high efficiency and cooling via refrigerant rather than a water chiller. This makes it truly portable, reduces maintenance, AND saves on argon and electricity bills compared to TIG. Aluminium welding is a key strength due to 980nm techology with pulsed mode to initiate keyhole welding.
IPG LIGHTWELD PORTABLE LASER WELDER AT HALF THE PRICE
Our portable laser welder, Lightwelder15, has 1500 Watts of output power from its fibre laser source. It is very similar to the IPG Lightweld 1500W but LESS THAN HALF THE PRICE. Suddenly portable laser welders are feasible for businesses all over Australia.
Now includes a WIRE FEEDER at no extra cost. You also get our industry leading MONEY BACK GUARANTEE if this laser welder doesn’t do what we promise.
Based on our testing, our unit is actually BETTER than IPG’s. On their Youtube video showing their the IPG technician welding 2mm aluminium, I clock their welding speed at approx. 7mm/s with Lightwelder 1500W. In contrast, our Lightwelder15 on 3mm aluminium (50% thicker again) clocks in at 12mm/s, and with full penetration, melting the back face and passing a severe bend test. Refer the photo in the image gallery. And that was only our first trial, straight out of the box. There is much more development left if this unit, and the speeds will improve as we go.
Beware of imitations with low power output. We have been made aware of copies of our Lightwelder15 and also a new unit by Max Photonics claiming to be 1500 Watts but their actual output is 1300W. Some versions are reportedly down on power substantially, at approximately 1000W. They also need a power transformer to work with Australia’s 240V+10% single phase power specification (250V is typical in Melbourne).
- Much faster and neater than TIG.
- Much less panel distortion than TIG or MIG. Low heat input and HAZ.
- Light weight 53kg (same as IPG Lightweld 1500)
- Dimensions: 640x310x620mm high
- Small size fits in a car or ute easily.
- Low power consumption (high conversion efficiency of 42%) and 240V 20A (laser source uses up to 17A, cooling system uses the balance).
- Chinese units are rated for 220V, not 240-250V.
- Welds up to 3mm stainless and 2mm aluminium.
- 55 pre-set modes make job changes quick.
- Very similar to IPG Lightweld 1500W but half the price!
- No post processing or grinding required on most welds.
- 2 year warranty for home/casual use. 1 year for industrial use.
