Combines the benefits of focused laser energy input and proven 2-stage infrared welding.
- Innovative, particle-free welding process via contact-less heating through laser radiation with high weld strength
- The first plastic welding process in which the entire heating phase is monitored inline for each joint partner, via infrared camera
- The new 2-step laser welding process is based on the technology LasIR Turn2Weld, which combines the advantages of quasi-simultaneous laser welding with those of 2-step infrared welding.
- Tool exchange for different welded parts without changing the heat source. Advantages: extremely quick change over time and one heating source only for various welding projects
- Inside the separate processes of heating and joining, the joining surfaces are heated flexibly with high scanning speed before they are pressure-welded.
- Laser-transparent plastics, special component design and different absorption properties of plastics aren’t an issue anymore.
- Component alterations and parts tolerances are easily adjustable.
- Housings and special component geometries, up to now unachievable with laser, now are possible with LasIR Turn2Weld.

VARIANTS
- Current version with one laser per component half; can be upgraded to two, for larger parts and more complex weld zones
- With one laser per component, welding rib lengths of approx. 600–1700 mm can be welded (greatly depending on the material)
