Laser versus
traditional welding
Laser welding utilizes a highly concentrated laser beam to create precise, deep welds with minimal heat-affected zones, making it ideal for thin materials and intricate designs.
Consider laser welding for high-speed processing, reduced distortion, high precision, efficiency, and reduced post-processing requirements.

Single system welding & cleaning
Blaze with LightWELD XC and LightWELD XR can switch from welding to cleaning in just seconds. The specially designed welding and cleaning nozzle tips provide for any joint configuration. Using a single system for multiple fabrication processes is a highly efficient productivity booster.
PRE-Weld
cleaning automation
Blaze with optional LightWELD XC or LightWELD XR provides pre-weld cleaning for fast and effective removal of contaminants such as oxides, rust, paint, oil, or grease from the surface without the use of chemicals or abrasives that can compromise weld integrity. Pulsed cleaning power up to 2500 W peak power evaporates undesired surface elements.

POST-Weld
cleaning automation
Optional LightWELD XC and LightWELD XR also provide post-weld cleaning to remove soot, debris, or any sign of localized heating. Create visually appealing welds while eliminating need for post-grinding and dramatically reducing time, cost and scrap. Up to 15 mm of adjustable cleaning width in one pass.

Drag & drop tablet
The unlimited library of welding recipes allows complete control and customization of all welding parameters.
7-axis positioning
The only welding cobot with 7 joints (others have 6) for more welds without re-fixturing and total maneuvering freedom.
Teach-by-touch
No programming ever needed—you can teach Blaze a job faster than welding it once by hand.
