Adjustable Mode Beam Lasers
Dual-Beam Technology
Up to 3 kW Single-Mode Core
Up to 50 kW Multi-Mode Power
Air-Cooled Options
Two Beams Are Better Than One
Adjustable Mode Beam (AMB) lasers introduce a secondary ring beam that supports a high intensity core beam.
For welding, the core beam creates the weld while the ring beam stabilizes the weld pool, enabling high-speed, spatter-free welding which virtually eliminates defects like cracking and porosity.

The Widest Selection of Dual-Beam Lasers
Multi-Mode
High-power multi-mode AMB lasers offer the highest dual-beam output power available and are often used for high-speed structural welding. Single-Mode
Single-mode AMB lasers are ideal for e-mobility and battery welding applications that demand high throughput and consistent weld quality. Quasi-Continuous Wave
Quasi-CW AMB lasers utilize bursts of extremely high peak power to offer excellent results in reflective metals and allow air-cooled operation. Dual-Beam Technology
Traditional laser welding uses a single focused beam to form the weld pool. Dual-beam technology adds a secondary ring beam that surrounds and supports this focused beam.
AMB lasers emit the central core beam and outer ring beam simultaneously and independently of one another. This enables users to control the parameters of each beam dynamically for greater control over process results.

The Definitive E-Mobility Welding Laser
For demanding E-Mobility applications, including Li-ion cell welding, busbar-to-cell welding, and welding of electric motor hairpins, high-speed and high-quality welding is critical to meet throughput requirements and ensure the quality and safety of the final product. AMB lasers enable the creation of high quality weld seams at the speeds necessary to make millions of individual welds a year.
AMB for Cutting & Drilling
The flexibility of AMB lasers enables more than just improved welding. AMB lasers enable high-speed, high-quality piercing and cutting across a wide range of materials and thicknesses, improving edge quality and surface finish while eliminating the need for multiple lasers or accessories.
The Strongest Structural Welds
Although aluminum has become an increasingly common solution for structural manufacturing, aluminum's high thermal conductivity creates challenges in welding quality and productivity. Rapid heat dissipation results in quick solidification of molten material, leading to cracking and porosity due to trapped plasma and shield gas bubbles that weaken joint strength. AMB lasers produce excellent welding results in structural welding applications, often eliminating the need for process gases.
Traditional High-Speed Aluminum Laser Welding
Single beam laser welding of aluminum can cause underfill due to material loss from spatter ejection, leading to structural weakness and unacceptable surface roughness.
AMB Dual-Beam Laser Welding
High-speed AMB welding of aluminum results in high-strength welds with no cracking, very low porosity, and an aesthetically pleasing finish.
