IPG LightWELD 2000 XR — Compact, High-Power Laser Welding System
The IPG LightWELD 2000 XR is a compact, high-performance fiber-coupled welding head designed for demanding production environments. It delivers up to 2 kW of laser power at the fiber output, optimized for precise, repeatable welding of metals including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, copper, and high-strength alloys. The LightWELD 2000 XR combines robust industrial construction with optics and cooling engineered for continuous operation and low maintenance.
Key features
Power and beam quality: Up to 2000 W delivered through a graded-index or multimode fiber with high coupling efficiency, providing deep penetration and narrow weld seams where required.
Compact, rugged head: Small form factor and hardened housing for easy integration into robotic cells, automated stations, or manual fixtures. Designed for shop-floor conditions.
Flexible focusing optics: Interchangeable focusing lenses and adjustable focus position for spot, seam, and fillet weld geometries. Options for different focal lengths to suit thin-sheet to thicker-section welding.
Integrated sensor options: Built-in coaxial or off-axis vision/sensing packages available for seam tracking, melt pool monitoring, and process feedback to improve first-pass yield.
Standoff and protection: Front-end protective window and shroud options for protection against spatter and debris; quick-change window holders for minimal downtime.
Cooling and thermal management: Efficient water-cooling interface with low pressure-drop design; thermal stabilization for consistent beam properties during long production runs.
Fiber compatibility and connectivity: Accepts standard high-power delivery fibers (specified core sizes) with secure fiber-coupling interface for reliable transmission and easy replacement.
Control and integration: Compatible with common laser source controllers and robot I/O; supports modulation and pulse programming for customized weld profiles.
Safety and standards: Built to meet industrial laser safety and EMC requirements for integration into factory systems.
