  1. Connect the CNC cutting platform and laser welder
    Open and connect the welding machine to the cutting platform, then plug on, turn on the gas(nitrogen cylinder of 174 PSI/1.2 MPa shown in XCS or set the xTool air compressor with dryer at the highest pressure of 145 PSI/1.0MPa while XCS will show 0.5-0.7MPa when processing).
  2. Place the material
    Place a 24''x 24''(610 x 610 mm) sheet on the cutting platform and secure it with the blade and clamps.

  1. Adjust the gas pressure
    Reduce the pressure of the nitrogen cylinder to 14.5-29 PSI(0.1-0.2 MPa). (If you used a compressor and dryer, disconnect from the welding machine and connect the nitrogen cylinder.)
  2. Cable connection for welding
    Disconnect the wiring between the welding machine and the cutting platform
  3. Assemble the wire-free welding nozzle
    Remove the capacitor head from the welding gun and install the wire-free welding nozzle.
  4. Connect the workpiece sensing cable
    Install the welding wire and Connect the workpiece sensing cable onto the metal part that needs to be welded to complete the circuit.

  1. Assemble the main part
    Use masking tape to assemble the main unit for easier welding
  2. Pause welding first
    Choose the material <1/25'' (1mm) Brass to apply the built-in welding parameters, and proceed with welding (Must use the wire-free welding nozzle and enable lasering)
  3. Continuous welding
    Pause welding at key points first and then use continuous welding for stronger connection

Step7: Install the bulb and connect the power wires

Please pay attention to safety!

Step8: Must-know Suggestions

  • The welding machine cannot be connected to the cutting platform and wire feeder simultaneously; you need to switch device connections and adjust the gas pressure.
  • It is recommended to conduct a small-scale test before cutting and welding to confirm the results before proceeding with further processing.
  • It is advisable to first use spot welding to secure key points, and then proceed with continuous welding.
