Integrated Production System
The APLW2500 Series incorporates the major components required for professional laser welding into a single, organized cabinet.
-
1.5 kW or 2.0 kW fiber laser source
-
Industrial refrigerated chiller
-
Programmable wire feeding system
-
Handheld laser welding gun
-
7-inch touchscreen HMI
-
Integrated safety and monitoring controls
-
Heavy-duty casters for mobility
The compact design provides convenient access to components while simplifying installation, operation, and routine maintenance.
100% Duty Cycle Refrigerated Cooling
-
A dedicated refrigerated chiller provides controlled cooling for both the laser source and handheld welding gun, allowing the APLW2500 to operate at a 100% duty cycle under specified operating conditions.
-
Continuous temperature monitoring helps maintain stable operating conditions while protecting critical components from excessive heat.
Programmable Wire Feed System
The APLW2500 includes an integrated wire feeder capable of accommodating wire spools up to 33 lbs.
The operator can adjust wire feed parameters directly through the HMI for greater control over weld deposition and appearance.
-
Adjustable wire feed speed
-
Continuous wire feeding
-
Adjustable pulsed wire feeding
-
Supports traditional fish-scale weld appearance
-
Large spool capacity reduces spool changes during production
-
Wire parameters can be coordinated with laser welding settings
This provides the flexibility to use the system for both fusion welding and wire-fed applications.
7-Inch HMI Control
The industrial touchscreen HMI gives the operator direct control over the welding process.
-
Adjustable parameters include:
-
Laser power
-
Beam width
-
Oscillation speed
-
Duty cycle
-
Laser frequency
10 Programmable Weld Presets
Operators can store up to 10 commonly used welding procedures, allowing frequently used settings to be recalled quickly for consistent production.
Presets can be configured for different materials, thicknesses, joint configurations, and weld profiles.
Adjustable Handheld Welding Gun
The ergonomic handheld welding gun provides flexibility for a wide range of fabrication applications.
-
Adjustable focal length
-
Adjustable beam width
-
Adjustable oscillation pattern
-
Modular optical design for simplified maintenance
-
Designed for both fusion and wire-fed welding
Included Laser Welding PPE
-
Every APLW25015 includes:
-
1 Laser Welding Helmet
-
2 Pairs of Laser Safety Glasses
-
The included laser-specific PPE provides operators with essential protective equipment to accompany the welding system.
-
PPE must be selected and used according to the laser wavelength, optical-density requirements, operating environment, and applicable safety procedures. Appropriate laser-area controls and protection for other personnel are also required.
Power Options
Both models utilize the same integrated platform, refrigerated cooling technology, programmable wire feeder, HMI controls, and safety monitoring systems.
