Small enough to fit into the boot of a car and yet supplying enough power to penetrate through 2mm of steel, it requires no external water chiller and consumes less electricity than a kettle
Where workshop space is limited, the Desktop laser offers a powerful solution for welding, steel, titanium, platinum, gold, silver and other alloys.
The newest laser in the StarWeld Manual series of laser welders, the Desktop offers a unique combination of high pulse energy and transportability.
Small enough to fit into the boot of a car and yet supplying enough power to penetrate through 2mm of steel, the Desktop requires no external water chiller and consumes much less mains electricity than an ordinary electric kettle.
Used in dental laboratories, medical device manufacturing, jewellery workshops and fine mechanical engineering R and D workshops, the laser can be sited on an existing workbench and leased for less than £80 per week.
Spot size and laser parameters are easily adjusted using joysticks inside the working chamber.
The workpiece is viewed using a Leica microscope and the position of the laser weld is precisely set using a fine cross hair.
Laser firing is under the control of a remote footswitch, keeping the hands free to position the parts in the weld area.
After a few minutes basic training, excellent results can be achieved by an inexperienced operator.
