About the course Laser welding in practice

Laser welding is a specialised field in which laser knowledge and skills are essential to achieve a desired end result. How do you get sufficient knowledge in this field in a short time?

Experience laser technology by doing it yourself

During this unique Laser Welding course, you will learn how to work safely with lasers through an ideal mix of theory and practice. You will understand what is involved faster and better because the theory is directly applied in a practical setup, so you see what actually happens. At the end of the course, you will have a complete picture of the possibilities the laser welding process can offer. Because you will work with lasers yourself during the course, you will learn how to apply it safely in practice.
