THEO MA1-45Request a quote
Laser welding, production

1200 watts, perfectly balanced.

The workhorse of the series. Full penetration up to 4.5 mm in stainless, day in day out, 4 to 10× faster than TIG.

Balance

Built for the workshop that runs every day.

1200WSingle-mode fibre

1200 W of single-mode fibre gives full penetration up to 4.5 mm in stainless, a tight, strong seam and an extremely short learning curve. The right choice for day-to-day production work.

Speed

Four to ten times faster than TIG.

< 1dayLearning time

Low heat input keeps distortion and discolouration away. Less rework, more throughput, without giving up seam quality.

The torch

680 grams. Mastered in a few hours.

680gTorch weight

The same lightest laser gun in the industry as the ULTRA. Comfortable all day, and operators weld to standard after a few hours.

Energy

Up to 80% more efficient than TIG.

Air cooledReady for long runs

Phase-change cooling (liquid/vapour), usable anywhere. Up to 80% less electricity than TIG.
