    I have a 1500W laser welder. I have had it about 1-1/2 years now. Gun angle is important to get a good weld. Wire diameter makes a big difference as well. The larger the better. I run 1/16" wire most of the time on mild steel, .045 on aluminum and stainless.
    I would be happy to discuss with you some pointers on making work better for you if you want. Just let me know.

    I used to operate a 8000 watt dual head laser welder. We used it to butt weld steel coils together. The two major problems we had was gap issues and the heads not tracking the seem but after a few upgrades the machine worked awesome. We could weld a 60 inch wide strip in about 15 seconds. There can not be any gap and the laser has to track center or the weld will break.

    I can see how this would be useful for replacing body panels in automotive restoration/ RestoMod work. Often times the replacement panels are about 19-20 gauge and traditional tig welding is more time consuming and throws down a larger weld.

    From what I have been "TOLD"
    Fit up is crucial, as you mentioned they don't like gaps (the laser has to hit a surface to provide heat)
    Everything has to be CLEAN, there is very little heat (compared to TIG, MIG etc.) to burn off contaminants.
    GREAT on thin gauges (that low heat thing again)
    Autogenous welds are fun.
    Treat it like a low temp TIG
    Again, it's what I have been told, so YMMV

    So, it's like a TIG and a MIG all rolled up in one with a bulky gun . Makes prettier welds than both (with less practice for a nice TIG look) , but has a problem with changing over to different materials . Wire changes would be a pain, especially all the different choices for stainless and aluminum . And then the cost . Last I heard they weren't priced like a little Primeweld . Like you said, it would be good at thin no gap jobs . :)

    I think it would be good for things like auto body, decorative things like flower garden entry gates, picture frames, motorcycle gas tanks, and other jobs that require a thin extremely uniform welds. If a person had a business that specializes in that kind of stuff I can see getting one. I'll stick with my stick, mig, tig, and oxyacetylene for the stuff I do though. Tig can do all the fancy stuff too just takes a lot longer, but I don't get a lot of projects that require me to do that stuff.

Your recent video has further diminished my interest in this particular welder. From my perspective, it seems less accommodating for amateurs, prompting me to continue using my existing Mig/Tig welders for the time being. I hope the manufacturer will address the issues you highlighted and improve the design accordingly. I appreciate your detailed review and demonstration of the welder's functionality. It has been informative and has guided me in making a more informed decision about not purchasing this machine at this stage. Thank you for sharing your insights.

    Makes sense that it won't fill gaps. If it is using the laser to heat/weld the metal, a gap gives the laser no place to focus the heat, except on the filler material. If you have a gap, then you would either have to machine the metal to tighter tolerances or build up from each side. Just my $.02 worth.

    I would bet its not the fact that it wont fill gaps but be the fact the laser has nothing to hit. Laser hitting the metal is how the heat to melt the metal is transferred. So if the laser is shooting through the gap then no heat is being transferred to the metal trying to be welded. But if you run a larger puddle of metal i would bet you would have better luck. Slow down your movements and maybe speed up wire some. No experience with laser welders but have done a lot of welding. Would be nice to mess with one tho. Seem pretty neat.

    @madmaxd1 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Yes! Laser welders are not ideal for welding gaps... but there's a trick.
    Obviously depending on the gap, you can use the electrode wire as a filler by feeding it. On wider gaps you can actuality not use the laser's wire but use tig welding rods.
    You basically use the tig's rods as a filler.
    I think as of the cosumer's available technology, the laser welder cannot replace the TIG welder but it can certainly fill in the gap for new users and the capacity for fast welding. Quality of welds are not bad, so there's definitely a place for these laser welders.

The thing I don't get is that it still requires the same things that a quality welding machine would use, the only difference being the use of laser light instead of an electrical arc, it just doesn't seem like there's an advantage to the laser outside of that rust removal feature, build an inexpensive version that just does rust removal and im all in

    honestly i'm glad to hear it's not just another scam from china and it really does weld, seeing you wack on that weld with a hammer and it not break was very impressive, i was sure it was going to just snap off.......

    Ive only seen shops use this for cheap, "assembly line" type of welds on thin sheets of alloys. What use is a welder that can't handle a gap? Whether it be structural or pipe, proper fit up almost always REQUIRES a gap. I'll stick to my mig welder, thank you very much.

    Could you show us what the cutting is like?
    Like you I have a plasma table - but wonder if one of these could give me better / finer cut quality, particularly on small parts?

    Thanks for the video. Can you weave the Lazer to fill the gap? Also, can it weld aluminum.

    As an artist, I'd need to know the cost to see if it's reasonable. With my husband doing the big, serious stuff and me doing the fine projects, we'd be a great team, but I couldn't see myself spending more than $300 for the whole thing. I'm also curious about sourcing the consumables. Where do we get those?

    One advantage of laser welding is that you can use nitrogen as a shielding gas which is much cheaper than argon.

    Could you solve the gap problem by putting a length (or two) of wire in it, and welding on top of that?

  • @Pocketbassist
    @Pocketbassist ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If there is a gap can you use a bigger wire? Also I heard you can make the laser swing wider.

    LKaser weldingdoes not rely on grounding. The gap welding required manual circular moveement by the operator or thare are also guns that have a very small rotating / scanning prism that rapidly span gaps as the operator manually sweeps a handheld .045" non flux core welding wire media across the gap to maintain a puddle hot enough to cause penetration.

  • @donaldsullivan6979
    @donaldsullivan6979 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cleanliness isnt as critical with laser welding as the laser is cleaning too. When you have gaps, use filler rod if needed, if its a smaller gap then thicker wire can help too and you set the laser to span the distance. As with anything, its all about learning how to use it

    I'm thinking this is a great tool for welding thinner sheet metal in cars. And you also get a laser rust removal option, and that is without a doubt a huge +. Imagine how easy it'd be to prep a car. Just walk around with the laser for a few hours and it's bare metal.

    I'd like to see it on 1/4 inch plate. Something that won't need as easy. Although that was a solid weld

  • @DansBuddhaBodega
    @DansBuddhaBodega ปีที่แล้ว

    Also... you're moving at a snails pace compared to how ive seen these used. Maybe bumping up the power and wire feed, will make it more like spray trasfer than short circuit? In my experience, butt welds are almost always cosmetic.

    Pretty cool. I wish they would have better written instructions for English and translation of parameters for what our welders are used to seeing. More extensive welding and NDT testing would be cool to see. More videos. It's pretty interesting. Good job.
