Not all laser welding systems are built the same.
At Sigma Laser, performance is not defined by power alone, but by how precisely energy is controlled, delivered, and adapted to the material.
Our systems are engineered around three core technological pillars:
Higher Pulse Peak Power with Improved Stability
The Challenge:
Conventional single-lamp systems suffer from:
- Uneven energy distribution
- Thermal gradients in the melt pool

In laser welding, excessive or poorly controlled heat input leads to:
- Grain coarsening
- Reduced toughness
- Hot cracking and residual stress
Sigma Laser Solution:
Super Pulse Technology (SPT) enables dynamic modulation of each individual pulse at microsecond scale.
This allows:
- Precise control of energy input per unit length
