Key Benefits of LightWELD 1500 XR:
The LightWELD 1500 XR Laser Welder is more than just a tool—it’s a complete, high-performance laser welding and cleaning solution designed to help professionals weld faster, cleaner, and stronger than ever before. Proudly made in the USA and built to outlast and outperform.
With impressive laser power reaching up to 1,500 W (2,500 W peak), the LightWELD XR welds materials up to 5/16″ thick and operates up to four times faster than traditional welding methods. Say goodbye to long welding cycles and extensive post-weld cleanup—this system dramatically reduces downtime and costs
This system combines welding and cleaning functions in one ergonomic tool. A simple switch of the nozzle activates cleaning mode featuring high-frequency pulsed laser power—perfect for pre-weld surface prep and post-weld soot removal. Enjoy cleaner welds without needing wire brushes or chemical cleaners
From mild steel to exotic metals like titanium, copper, and nickel alloys, the LightWELD XR handles it all with ease. With preset modes for complex materials and a wider scan field, this tool adapts to your project needs—whether you're welding structural steel or performing maintenance on delicate aerospace components
Forget the steep learning curve of TIG welding. The LightWELD XR includes 100 built-in presets, intuitive front-panel controls, and a convenient Ethernet or key-switch interface for expert-level configuration. With safety features like interlocks and two-step trigger controls, even beginners can weld like pros in hours
Made in the USA with rigorous quality standards, the LightWELD 1500 XR supports your workflow with rock-solid reliability. Included accessories—from a 10 m welding gun and clamp to safety glasses and a helmet—ensure you're equipped from day one. Rugged design meets real-world usability.
Yes. The LightWELD 1500 XR achieves travel speeds up to 4× faster than TIG or MIG welding, making setup simpler and reducing post-weld grinding or sanding.
It handles a wide range—from stainless steel and galvanized steel to aluminum (up to 0.234″/3 ga), nickel alloys, titanium (up to 0.234″), and copper (up to 0.129″). It’s designed for welding even dissimilar metals.
Yes. With minimal spatter and no consumables required, the LightWELD XR is safe and easy to use in any orientation, including overhead or vertical welds.
Absolutely. It includes over 100 factory-weld and cleaning presets optimized for various materials and thicknesses. Users can save up to 25 custom profiles.
Yes. The LightWELD 1500 XR supports wire-feed welding, enabling enhanced bead size or gap-filling during the welding process.
Yes. Users can enable wobble patterns (up to 5 mm width, 300 Hz frequency) for broader, aesthetic welds and better fit-up accommodation.
The system runs at a full 100% duty cycle at its rated 1500 W power—unlike some lasers that overheat during extended use.
Yes. Compared to traditional welders, the LightWELD XR is designed to be learned quickly: new operators can produce high-quality welds in just a few hours using presets and intuitive controls.
