Laser versus
traditional welding
Laser welding utilizes a highly concentrated laser beam to create precise, deep welds with minimal heat-affected zones, making it ideal for thin materials and intricate designs.
Consider laser welding for high-speed processing, reduced distortion, high precision, efficiency, and reduced post-processing requirements.
Laser weld thick, thin & reflective materials
Blaze Laser with Miller® OptX® opens the door to welding a wider range of materials and thicknesses with minimal distortion, deformation, undercut or burn-through.

Single system welding & cleaning
Blaze with MIller® OptX® 2kW can switch from welding to cleaning in just seconds. The specially designed welding and cleaning nozzle tips provide for any joint configuration. Using a single system for multiple fabrication processes is a highly efficient productivity booster.
PRE-Weld
cleaning automation
Blaze with Miller® OptX® 2 kW provides pre-weld cleaning for fast and effective removal of contaminants such as oxides, rust, paint, oil, or grease from the surface without the use of chemicals or abrasives that can compromise weld integrity. Pulsed cleaning power up to 2500 W peak power evaporates undesired surface elements.

POST-Weld
cleaning automation
Blaze with Miller® OptX® 2 kW also provides post-weld cleaning to remove soot, debris, or any sign of localized heating. Create visually appealing welds while eliminating need for post-grinding and dramatically reducing time, cost and scrap. Up to 15 mm of adjustable cleaning width in one pass.
