A Core-Ring Laser Welding Machine uses two laser beams that work together during welding: a high-energy center beam for deep penetration and a surrounding ring beam for controlled heat input. The ring beam preheats the material, stabilizes the molten pool, and slows cooling, producing a smoother and more stable welding process.
This beam configuration is well suited for aluminum, copper, stainless steel, carbon steel, and other materials that require stable heat control. Compared with conventional single-beam laser welding, it reduces spatter and porosity, improves weld formation, and maintains stable penetration during continuous welding. Independent adjustment of the center and ring beams allows the heat distribution to be matched to different materials, plate thicknesses, and welding applications.
Core-ring laser welding machines are widely used in steel structure fabrication, pressure vessel manufacturing, shipbuilding, construction machinery, heavy equipment, and other industrial applications where weld quality and production stability are essential.
A Core-Ring Laser Welding Machine uses two laser beams during welding. The center beam delivers high energy density for deep penetration, while the ring beam surrounds the weld area to control heat input and stabilize the molten pool.
The ring beam heats the material before welding, reducing thermal shock and laser reflection on high-reflectivity metals. Independent adjustment of the two beams allows the welding parameters to be matched to different materials, thicknesses, and joint conditions.

The KEMPSON Core-Ring Laser Welding Machine is built for thick plates, high-reflectivity metals, and continuous industrial welding. Center and ring beam technology, flexible wire feeding, and stable process control meet the requirements of heavy-duty fabrication.
The center beam creates deep penetration, while the ring beam controls heat around the weld. The molten pool remains stable, heat is distributed more evenly, and weld seams stay consistent on medium and thick plates.
Center and ring beam power can be adjusted separately for different materials, joint types, and plate thicknesses. Penetration depth and heat input are matched to each welding process.
The ring beam heats the surface before the center beam enters the material, reducing laser back reflection and improving welding stability. Aluminum, copper, stainless steel, and carbon steel can be welded with stable penetration and clean seam formation.
Stable heat distribution reduces spatter, porosity, and molten pool fluctuation. Weld seams are cleaner, smoother, and require less post-weld finishing.
Single-, dual-, triple-, and four-wire feeding configurations handle different groove sizes and weld bead requirements. Multi-wire welding increases filler deposition for thick-section fabrication.
The integrated gas generation module supplies shielding gas during welding. External gas equipment is reduced, and installation becomes simpler for factory production.

Whether you are evaluating welding solutions for automotive manufacturing, heavy industry, sheet metal fabrication, or automated production lines, this guide will help you determine the most suitable welding process.
Laser welding is widely known for its ability to create strong, precise welds with minimal heat input. One of the most common questions is whether filler metal is required during the process. In many applications, laser welding can be performed without filler wire by directly fusing the base materials. However, filler metal becomes important when welding thicker materials, bridging joint gaps, preventing cracking, or joining dissimilar metals. This guide explains how autogenous laser welding works, when filler wire is necessary, whether wobble welding can replace filler metal, and how to choose between wire and powder fillers for different applications.
Handheld laser welding and MIG welding are two widely used metal joining technologies in modern manufacturing. While MIG welding remains popular for heavy fabrication and general industrial use, handheld laser welding is rapidly gaining attention for its high precision, fast welding speed, low heat distortion, and clean weld appearance. This article compares the differences between handheld laser welding and MIG welding, including welding quality, efficiency, operating cost, material compatibility, and application scenarios, helping manufacturers choose the right welding solution for their production needs.
