What is laser welding

Where precision meets speed

Laser welding heats metal with concentrated laser light, creating a strong and clean weld pool. With handheld laser systems, this process becomes faster, simpler, and more cost-efficient.

At LAZRZ, we focus on welding a wide range of metals such as

Steel

Stainless steel

Aluminium

Nickel

Copper

Advantages of laser welding

Why LAZRZ

A laser weld

A handheld laser welder produces clean, narrow weld seams with no spatter, meaning little to no post-processing is required. The high welding speed and consistent working distance result in a smooth and uniform weld, saving valuable time.

Laser welding with a robot

Laser welding is highly suitable for automation and robotics. This process uses a specially engineered welding head mounted on a robotic arm. This combination enables even faster, more precise, and more efficient welding.

Other laser welding processes

In addition to handheld laser welding, there are other laser welding methods—many of which have been used for longer—that are typically applied in automated setups.

Conduction welding

Conduction laser welding is ideal for thin sheet materials and delivers clean, precise welds with minimal penetration.

Laser keyhole welding

Keyhole laser welding is suited for thicker materials and typically requires automation due to the high speed and power involved.

Laser hybrid welding

Laser hybrid welding combines laser and MIG/MAG processes to achieve fast, deep welds with filler material, allowing for greater tolerances and thicker joints.

Remote welding

Remote laser welding uses a laser from a distance to create fast, precise welds — even in hard-to-reach areas.
