Laser welding, entry model

All the laser power. Smaller footprint.

The smartest starting point in laser welding. 800 W, full penetration up to 3.5 mm in stainless, more compact and lighter, with no compromise on quality.

Entry level

The smartest step from TIG to laser.

800WSingle-mode fibre

The same single-mode laser core, gold-plated diodes and controls as the rest of the series, in a compact, lighter housing. Full penetration up to 3.5 mm in stainless.

Footprint

More compact and lighter, usable anywhere.

28kgCompact & light

At 28 kg and with a smaller housing, the MA1-35 fits in any workshop. Perfect for smaller shops, repair work and companies switching over from TIG.
