When selecting laser welding solutions, always prioritize the laser source brand (JPT/Raycus) over raw wattage for long-term reliability.
Laser Welding Solutions: Shipping & Compliance
Klear Laser ships every 1 kW to 6 kW fiber welding system in reusable, ISPM-15 exempt steel-framed crates. The inner cavity is laser-cut foam that locks the chiller, wobble head, and JPT source on their own shock islands. A single crate keeps gross weight under 450 kg so one forklift can move it from our Shenzhen bay to your loading dock without re-balancing.
We quote HS Code 8515.80.00 for the complete light-beam metal-working unit and 8456.10.10 for the separately classified Raycus resonator. Split coding lets you pay duty only on the source when you expand from 2 kW to 3 kW later. Our freight partner pre-files an EAR99 ECCN, so the paperwork follows the crate and clears in 24 h through most ports.
Laser safety rules start with IEC 60825-1 Class 4; every Klear welder leaves the factory with a keyed interlock, 1064 nm safety glass rated OD 6+, and a CE-notified body certificate. We add a redundant contactor that drops mains power if the enclosure is opened while the JPT module is above 5 % output. Customers receive a SOP template that maps out 3 m exclusion zones, beam termination barriers, and mandatory EN 207 goggles for any wavelength between 1000-1100 nm.
Old MIG and TIG rigs need flux, grinding dust collectors, and 30 L of argon every shift. A Klear 2 kW wobble head deletes filler wire, slashes fume extraction to 200 m³ h⁻¹, and welds 3 mm steel at 1.8 m min⁻¹ with 2 mm penetration in a single pass. The table below shows how the numbers stack up on a typical stainless food-grade seam.
| Parameter | TIG + Filler | Klear 2 kW Wobble |
|---|---|---|
| Heat Input (kJ mm⁻¹) | 0.9 | 0.35 |
| Penetration @ 1 m min⁻¹ (mm) | 1.2 | 2.5 |
| Argon Consumption (L h⁻¹) | 1 200 | 50 (shield only) |
| Post-grind Time (min m⁻¹) | 8 | 0 |
| HS Code Duty Rate | 8515.31 4.5 % | 8515.80 2.7 % |
| Operator Goggles | Shade 11 DIN | OD 6+ @ 1064 nm |
Belangrijkste functies en voordelen
Klear Laser stands at the forefront of industrial fabrication by providing advanced fiber laser welding systems that significantly outperform traditional TIG and MIG methods. Our equipment is engineered to eliminate the widespread reliance on consumables while drastically reducing the size of heat-affected zones. We prioritize precision and speed to ensure that high-volume manufacturing environments maintain peak efficiency without compromising structural integrity.
The core of our machine’s superiority lies in the integration of premium laser sources such as JPT and Raycus. These industry-leading sources provide exceptional beam quality and energy stability, which are critical requirements for achieving deep penetration welding without porosity. By utilizing these high-grade fiber sources, we ensure that operators can achieve consistent, high-strength weld seams on materials ranging from stainless steel to highly reflective aluminum.
Our systems utilize advanced wobble welding head technology to manipulate the beam width dynamically during the joining process. This beam oscillation capability allows the laser to bridge wider gaps in fit-up tolerance that would typically fail or require extensive filler wire in stationary beam setups. The result is a smooth, aesthetic finish that requires little to no post-weld grinding or polishing, saving valuable labor hours.
The combination of high power density and precision optics allows for significant penetration depths even at welding speeds four to ten times faster than traditional arc welding. Operators can adjust specific parameters to control the heat input precisely, preserving the structural integrity of thin-walled components and dissimilar metals. This level of control makes our handheld and automated solutions ideal for the rigorous demands of the automotive and aerospace sectors.
| Specificatie | Traditional TIG Welding | Klear Fiber Laser Welding |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Component | Tungsten Electrode | JPT / Raycus Fiber Source |
| Weld Speed | 10-50 mm/s | 20-120 mm/s |
| Heat Affected Zone | Large / High Distortion Risk | Minimal / Low Distortion |
| Gap Bridging | Requires Filler Rod | Wobble Head Technology (0-4mm width) |
| Penetration Depth | Variable (Operator Dependent) | Consistent (up to 6-8mm dependent on power) |
| Post-Weld Processing | Grinding/Polishing Required | Minimal to None |
Industriële toepassingen
Laser welding dominates critical automotive manufacturing processes requiring precision and speed. Electric vehicle battery tab sealing demands hermetic joints without thermal damage to cells, achieved through controlled pulse shaping from JPT MOPA sources. Body-in-white assembly utilizes multi-kilowatt continuous-wave fiber lasers for deep-penetration roof seam welding, ensuring structural integrity. Wobble welding heads eliminate edge misalignment issues in door hem flanging applications.
Aerospace relies on laser welding for high-value, safety-critical components where minimal heat input is paramount. Turbine blade tip repairs and combustor ring fabrication use pulsed lasers to weld nickel-based superalloys like Inconel 718 without cracking. Precision wobble welding creates leak-tight joints in fuel system manifolds from thin-walled titanium tubing. Deep penetration capabilities from Raycus QBH sources enable single-pass welding of thick landing gear components.
Marine industry adoption focuses on corrosion-resistant alloy fabrication for demanding saltwater environments. Ship superstructure welding of marine-grade stainless steel (316L) achieves superior weld aesthetics and chloride resistance compared to TIG. Propulsion system components like pump housings require deep-penetration welds in duplex steels, handled by multi-mode fiber lasers. Laser processing minimizes distortion in large hull section assemblies, reducing costly post-weld straightening.
