Updated Features and Enhancements to Our Open Laser Welding Workstation

An Excellent Tool for Common and Complex Laser Welding Applications


Today’s precision welding marketplace specializing in laser spot welding or laser seam welding applications, have a wide range of new technologies available to enhance their ability to provide the highest level of quality, craftsmanship, and service to their clients. LaserStar’s 7800 Series manual welding systems are ideal for a variety of common welding applications including plastic injection mold, dies and tooling repair, complex electronic components, high-precision industrial assemblies, pressure-sensitive hermetic laser sealing, and other unique industrial applications for the automotive, aerospace, aviation, computer, medical device, mold repair, and consumer product industries.

Operators hold parts in their hands while viewing the application through a stereo-microscope in the welding zone. An internal cross-hair allows the operator to easily align and weld the parts at the correct location.

Many materials can be laser welded including 300 and some 400 series stainless steel, mild steels, nickel and nickel alloys, aluminum and aluminum alloys, titanium, precious metal alloys (gold, silver, and platinum), etc.

We have several accessories available for use with our 7800 Series Laser Welding Workstation. Below are just a few of our most popular ones.

  • Magnetic Jig Fixture - The Magnetic Jig Fixture acts like a third hand which allows the operator to place smaller parts on it and hold it steady with the ability to rotate or swivel on various angles
  • Heavy Duty Vice - The Heavy Duty Vice holds a part firmly, to keep it square to the laser. It also has a built-in sine plate as the base to give the ability to work at various angles.
  • Large Rotary Device - The Large Rotary Device has a 5-inch adjustable chuck for holding larger diameter parts for rotational welds. It also has a built-in sine plate on the base to perform fillet welds when needed.
