Plastic welding using lasers is a serious alternative to classic joining methods. Its winning advantages are precision, safety and cleanliness. Boasting more than ten years of experience in this sector, LPKF is one of the world market leaders in laser systems for plastic welding. 

LPKF’s plastic welding systems are compact and rugged, designed for 24/7 operations. They can be fully integrated into any working environment and are ideal for the production of mini-series through to mass production.  

 

LPKF stand-alone systems at a glance 


**LPKF PowerWeld 2000** is modular and can be particularly easily customized to meet specific customer specifications thanks to its range of laser sources and handling systems.  

**LPKF PowerWeld 3000** is a turnkey machine with an integrated rotary table. It is ideal for medium-sized batches, manual or automatic placement and 3-shift production operations. The LPKF PowerWeld 3000 is the big brother of the LPKF PowerWeld 2000 and features even more functions and a larger spectrum of processing options.  

**LPKF TwinWeld3D** is a system for the reliable welding of large plastic components in industrial processes which benefit from low unit costs. The patented process uses a hybrid welding technique in a thermal field. 

The LPKF PowerWeld 2000 modular laser welding system is already named after its biggest beneficial feature: it is designed to be customized to weld plastics precisely in line with customer specifications.  
 
A. optimum set-up for every application,

B. compact, variable housing,

C. range of laser sources and handling systems,

D. integrated online process monitoring,

E. combined with high capacity control.


The LPKF PowerWeld 2000 is operated intuitively from a touch panel. Siemens SPC components mean smooth series production. A license for ProSeT software is included as standard for the rapid configuration of welding contours. The pilot laser visualizes the welding contours. Additional options – such as a rotary table – cut cycle times and support quality tracking while plastic components are being joined.

 

**Joining plastics in the micrometer range**


With its MF-version, LPKF supplies a variant with a high-precision fiber laser for creating ultrafine weld seams in the micrometer range, and which has been specially designed for microfluidic components:
 

A. ideal for medical products classified as risk class III,

B. clean room compatible systems and methods,

C. end-to-end Tracking & Tracing during production,

D. modular expansion options  .


LPKF has enormous experience in the laser welding of medical products. A specialized Application Center in Erlangen provides product and process design assistance for plastic welding projects.

LPKF PowerWeld 2000
