AL-3D METAL 200: Additive Manufacturing without direct powder contact

The closed powder circuit ensures more safety at work because the operator doesn’t come into contact with the powder during the entire printing process. Specifically developed for the precision mechanics, medical technology, dental and jewelry industries, as well as research and development laboratories, out 3D printer offers optimum detail accuracy, precision and maximum safety in handling the laser and the metal powder.

We recommend having your optics inspected every six months, as dust can lead to micro-cracks in the internal mirrors. Micro-cracks and dirty protection glass can both lead to power loss. Therefore, we also suggest keeping extra protection glass on hand to prevent a stop in workflow.

Send us your optic to clean and inspect. We have loaners available so that your laser remains up and running! Learn more about our loaner program.

New! Alpha Laser ALFlak 1200 Fiber Laser, with mabotics scan camera to create 3D files for additive manufacturing repair processes.

Our new ALFlak 1200 W Fiber Laser has a 3D scanning camera to repair complex geometries via additive manufacturing. This fiber laser cladding system is also available in 900 W.

The fiber source model is recommended if your application requires a validated process, e.g., if you wish to weld using the CW (continuous wave) method or pulsed, take advantage of deep welding in sheet metal fabrication, or simply if you require maximum average power. It’s extremely flexible in the selection of laser sources and laser power, with unlimited possibilities in terms of laser applications.

New Alpha Laser wire feed system: Fully automatic or manual wire feed with one system

The AL-DV wire feeder unit is ideal for automated welding processes, but also for manual laser wire deposition welding. It can be integrated into automated series production and is controlled via digital signals. It is suitable for wire thicknesses of .010 – 0.60 inches.

The AL-DV has an integrated sensor system for wire detection, for the safe and comfortable feeding of the wire. It monitors the wire feed, the wire end, and the wire freezing. By using two buttons on the feed unit, the wire can be fed manually. As an optional add-on, an external handpiece, which is part of the delivery scope, can be quickly connected. With this, the wire can then be applied manually.

Features at a glance: 

• Automatic and manual modes
• Compatible with ALL Alpha Laser systems
• Large range of wire capabilities (.010″-0.60″)
• Compatible with several wire spools and sizes
• Easy set up and tear down
• User-friendly touch screen operating controls
• Fine adjusting for wire feeder nozzle positioning
• Integrated sensors for wire detection
• Optional manual handheld wire feeding nozzle

We’ve made some enhancements to all ALV Laser Welder models…

• The ALV is now available in 450 W Fiber Laser!
• Increased power from 100 W/150 W to 120 W/180 W on YAG models.
• You are now able to have full WINLaser control.
• New resonator with the YAG 180 W, improved welding behavior even for fine welds.
• New optional wing doors – open upwards, with brush slot for long components, improved for applications in the field of sensor technology.
• Easy open cabinet operation mode – working chamber can be completely removed by removing four screws, set up time is less than 10 minutes.
• Optional pneumatic (foot-controlled) chuck with rotary.
• New fume extraction concept.
• Gas pressure spring.
• New transport support.

Learn a little bit about the ALV Laser Welder below: 

The compact and ergonomic ALV welding laser with a laser-safe working chamber is available with different laser powers, laser sources and with app or NC control. The ALV is used in the areas of precision and deposit welding in the tool and mold sector, in sensor production and in medical and precision engineering. The welding machine offers a large height travel and doors that can be opened wide, so that even larger workpieces can be accommodated.

For sensor applications, upward-opening wing doors with a side slot can be ordered for easy positioning of long tubes. A fine welding function reduces the spot diameter to 0.1 mm.

The ALV has 3 linear axes of movement, with the vertical Z-axis lifting up to 50 kg. Different axes of rotation for machining cylindrical parts are optionally available. The machine version with WINLaserNC control enables interpolated driving in XYZ for automated welding such as the processing of magazines with several components. The laser system is operated via an intuitive touchscreen. In just a few steps, the laser-safe, closed system can be turned into an open laser workstation, for which of course appropriate laser protection measures must be taken.

We’re taking an in-depth look at the AL-IN: Our entry level laser system for laser welding.

The AL-IN is a robust and extremely flexible laser system for laser welding of small and large parts.

The system consists of a 150 W or 200 W laser for welding all common metals, a lifting column with X, Y and Z travel and a control unit for the axes. You can use the integrated touch panel to teach surfaces, access apps for rotary components or to control an optional wire feed system.

The parts to be welded can be positioned independently from the movement system because a wide variety of work tables can be placed in front of the lifting column.

Or you can weld directly on the pallet truck or pallet. This is possible because the resonator can be turned to the side or back (nearly 360°). The resonator, which sits in a slide rail, can also be placed far forward. This gives you the flexibility to weld small and large workpieces. Optionally we supply a fixed table top for the lifting column.

The special feature about the AL-IN is that it is not the workpiece that is moved, but the resonator.

Optionally you can get expansions such as: turn and tilt optics, the patented multifunction foot switch, an Ergo wedge, an axis of rotation, and a wire feed system.

Features at a glance:

• Entry level price point
• Easy to use
• Teach modes
• Powerful
• Versatile
• Professional results

We’re taking an in-depth look at the AL-CROSS: a mobile fiber laser welding system.

The AL-CROSS is powerful, as 450 W constant laser power is waiting for use. Welding is either pulsed or in CW mode. The welding behavior can be influenced via integrated pulse shapes. Parameters are set either via the color display or via the multifunction footswitch or the new AL-DRIVE control unit.

Its display is tilt-able (orientable) in order to always have an optimal view and an integrated keyboard is within easy reach of the operator.

The fiber laser is mobile thanks to its easily movable wheels. It fits through standard doors and with its transport height of 1.25 m (display can be tilted) into every small van with a loading height of at least 1.40 m. And the best way to experience the mobility of the arm, the lenses and the laser head is to try it out!

Its housing is robust with sturdy aluminum handles that provide shock protection for edges and housing and supports the easy movement of the system. There are integrated eyelets for loading and stowing, plus a hook for a winch.

Generous storage areas make this one of the most user-oriented welders, along with the specially designed holders that can be fixed to the hole pattern on the sides of the welding laser to accommodate welding wire, joystick, the foot pedal, safety glasses and tools. The 5th wheel on the laser enables the direct transport of the gas bottle, which is extremely practical.

And best of all: the “senior mode” which allows the operator to set or read the laser parameters without reading glasses.

With the new control unit AL-DRIVE, you steer the axes of the AL-CROSS, set them in semi-automatic mode and adjust the laser parameters. The pulse trigger, the R axis and the fast gear are located in the joystick. And whether you are left-handed or right-handed doesn’t matter, because the buttons can be freely programmed.
