Do you want precision laser welding automation that stands out? Discover the PhotonWeld R8-X advantage!
Crash proof Laser welding Robot/cobot unit for new or retrofit - Synergy of Beam and Motion
A superior laser weld is the product of two elements: a stable, high-quality energy beam and exceptionally precise motion control.
Our R8-X series excels in both: Synergy of Beam and Motion
Our systems are powered by worlds best high-performance fiber lasers, chosen for their reliability and superior beam quality. But the true differentiator is our motion platform. Each R8-X robot/cobot is driven by our proprietary, in-house developed laser system. This gives us complete control over the machine's welding performance, allowing for optimized trajectory accuracy, minimal vibration, and exceptional dynamic response. The result is a repeatable positioning accuracy of ±0.05mm, ensuring that the laser's pinpoint focus lands exactly where it's needed, weld after weld.

R8-X: Robotic Laser Welding Torch with collision avoidance and push-pull wire feeding capabilities.
We install a highly sensitive collision avoidance sensor within the laser welding torch.
This sensor instantly detects any collision and brings the entire system to an emergency stop, effectively providing a "safety airbag" for the valuable welding torch, providing maximum protection for both the torch and the system.
Significant productivity gains in welding!
Lasermach provide full predefined units to replace any conventional welding system on any robot or cobot or automated machine.
Laser welding is an unknown or unexplored option for many manufacturers with automated welding applications, but it is just as easy to implement as other robotic welding systems. The fast travel speeds and low heat input of laser welding makes it especially well-suited for sheet metal welding applications that require precision and attention to aesthetics.
The PhotonWeld R8-X laser welding head is designed for high-precision welding applications, including laser welding, laser brazing, and laser cladding (with optional equipment). It features a compact and lightweight design, which makes it ideal for use in tight spaces and hard-to-reach areas.
The welding head is equipped with a range of advanced features that ensure high-quality and consistent welds. These include a high-precision fiber optic laser, which provides accurate and reliable beam delivery, and a gas flow control system that provides optimal shielding gas coverage. Wire feeder is standard and we offer the exclusive Crash protection that can save you from huge repair costs or avoid big production losses
The PhotonWeld R8-X laser welding head also features a 360-degree rotation capability (by robot/cobot), which enables the welding torch to move freely in all directions, and a 90-degree tilt function, which allows for easy access to difficult-to-reach welding positions.
In addition to its advanced features, the PhotonWeld R8 laser welding head is also easy to use and maintain. It can be easily programmed and controlled using a central console, and its modular design allows for quick and easy replacement of components.
For operations now using MIG, TIG or resistance spot welding, a switch to laser welding can significantly improve productivity, saving time and money while still producing even better high-quality welds. Implementing our PhotonWeld-R units in your exisiting Robot welding linne is a piece of cake.
The Photonweld R8-X-Series comes with a high efficient full PhotonWeld Master Pro-X laser unit of standard bright light 1500/2000/3000 Watt (with heatpump cooling). The unit is plug and play and runs problem free from the first second.
Upgrade the Welding Process, Don't replace your Robot!
Our retrofit or upgrade service kits offer a complete conversion using our latest components rather than just replacing one or two similar parts. This allows you to maintain the best parts if your current system while gaining the benefits of more modern technology.
When your old equipment was highly customized or has complex automation modules, and all the electric and electronic assemblies are out of market, we recommend the trade in pattern to upgrade.
When you buy spare parts to repair your today's old laser welding equipment, essentially you are replacing individual components such as a power supply, or a controller board with a component of the same caliber. While it’s true this should fix problems that you are experiencing with that particular part, it doesn’t present the increased benefits that newer advanced laser technology may offer.
Our laser upgrade kits offer a more complete conversion using our most current components rather than just replacing one or two parts with the same kind. This allows you to maintain the best parts of your current system while gaining the benefits of more modern technology. It creates a best of both worlds scenario by allowing your older laser to run like some of the newer models. This is the perfect solution for customers that need to stretch their budgets while still gaining significant upgrades that wouldn’t otherwise be possible without buying brand new equipment.

Gain a BIG Advantage with your Robotic Welding of next generation
Integrate our wobble-RX-8 prebuild fiber laser welding units in your existing MIG/TIG/MAG welding automation and move to next generation Robot Welding
Robotic laser welding is a cost-effective and flexible application for achieving high quality weldments. The combined flexibility of the robotic arm and capabilities of laser welding technology produce very sophisticated results. In fact, laser welding offers so many advantages that some companies have switched their MIG and other welding applications over to laser welding.
Fast, Precision-Driven Welding
The speed and accuracy provided by robotic laser welding solutions is unparalleled. The laser beam creates a very deep and precise weld, without inputting as much heat or energy into the material as is necessary for more traditional welding applications. Because the heat-affected zone is so much smaller, the weldment is more precise.
No Touch-Up Necessary
Welding without having to constantly rework or refinish? Most welding processes require a touch-up so the seam can look better. Not so with laser welding. Laser welding is extremely focused, which allows it to weld clean. There isn't the distortion in the base material or seam that you often see with other applications. The resulting weldments are more attractive, making this the perfect application for sheet metal applications that require a clean finished look. Finally, with less refinish/machining work to be done, laser welding is able to provide faster production times.
Versatility
Laser welding is an attractive option because it is not limited to a specific type of metal. Instead, it is suitable for a variety of different base materials. This adds greater flexibility to the application. In another way, robotic laser welding offers extreme flexibility when it comes to welding hard-to-access parts. The focused laser beam is more direct and less damaging to the material.
Cost savings
Using laser welding on products with high production volumes, long weld seams and/or many subcomponents results in impressive savings. These savings are primarily due to the high welding speed, the short intervals between the welding and the short changeover times. Furthermore, in cosmetic welds, directly visible to the customer, often manual finishing operations which would be needed after arc welding can be discarded when using laser welding. In industries such as the furniture industry, this can result in very significant cost benefits.
