Questions & Answers
Questions & Answers
Q: What materials can the xTool MetalFab Laser Welder weld and cut?
A: The system welds stainless steel, carbon steel, galvanized sheet, aluminum, brass, titanium, and nickel alloys up to 5 mm thick, and can CNC cut carbon steel up to 10 mm.
Q: How does laser welding compare to traditional TIG welding?
A: Laser welding operates up to 8x faster than TIG welding, creates a microscopic heat-affected zone (0.002") to prevent metal warping, and requires little to no post-weld grinding.
Q: What electrical supply is required to run the MetalFab 1200W?
A: The MetalFab 1200W requires a 200–240V AC power line with a maximum current draw of 21A (~4200W total input power).
Q: Can I pick up or see a demonstration of the MetalFab at LWG?
A: Yes, equipment consultations, training, and local store pickup options are offered directly through LWG locations in St. Louis, MO, and Marietta, GA.

Description
The xTool MetalFab Laser Welder is an industrial-grade, multi-process metal fabrication system that integrates 1200W fiber laser welding, handheld cutting, surface cleaning, and optional CNC metal cutting into a single platform. Operating with speeds up to 8x faster than traditional TIG welding, the MetalFab reduces thermal distortion with a heat-affected zone of just 0.002 inches. Equipped with an 8-inch smart touchscreen, dual 16MP camera vision system, and automatic wire feeding, it processes stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, brass, titanium, and galvanized sheet with industrial precision.

The LWG Difference
- Multi-Process Versatility: Seamlessly switches between handheld laser welding, high-speed cutting, surface rust/paint stripping, and CNC cutting using a single 1200W fiber laser source.
- Ultra-Low Thermal Distortion: Features a 0.002-inch heat-affected zone that prevents metal warping, ideal for thin sheet metal repair and precision structural joins.
- SaveGas™ Cost Reduction: Engineered with SaveGas™ nozzle technology to lower consumable gas consumption by up to 50% compared to standard laser welding setups.
- Direct Factory Backup & Local Support: Supported by LWG (Lawson Workhorse Group) with expert technical guidance, hands-on training, financing programs, and local pickup in St. Louis and Atlanta.
