LASER WELDING
High speed, low heat input, and a small HAZ make laser welding thick, thin, reflective materials, and materials with dissimilar thicknesses far less challenging for all skill levels.
LASER PRE-CLEANING
Pre-weld cleaning removes rust and other contaminants from materials and increases weld quality. This is much faster than manual cleaning and uses no chemicals or abrasives.
LASER POST-CLEANING
Post-weld cleaning removes heat discoloration and improves visual finishes without post-weld grinding.
