Every LightWELD XC and XR system includes pre-weld and post-weld laser cleaning as standard — no separate machine, no chemicals, no wire brushes, no abrasive blasting. One handheld tool, two jobs.
The same fibre laser that welds also strips surface contamination — rust, mill scale, oxidation, paint, and light coatings — down to bare, weld-ready metal, in the same handheld tool, with the same operator.
Removing oxidation and mill scale immediately before welding reduces porosity and improves fusion — especially on stainless and aluminium.
Non-contact, non-abrasive cleaning — no wire brushes, grinding discs, chemical strippers, or blast media to buy, store, or dispose of.
A dedicated laser cleaner is a separate capital purchase. On an XC or XR system, cleaning capability is already included in the price.
Clean up heat tint and spatter after welding for a finished, presentation-ready weld without a secondary process.
Cleaning capability is included on the LightWELD 1500 XC, 1500 XR, and 2000 XR. The 1000 supports post-weld cleaning only.
