The proven metal 3D printing system that started it all. A versatile technology that enables unmanned, direction-independent welding - with both wire and powder LMD (Laser Metal Deposition).
This compact version of our pioneering laser head weighs just 6 kilograms and still brings all the advantages of the ProFocus technology, enabling new applications and geometries.
The compact version of our laser cell for production environments with small to medium-sized components. It combines the quality and efficiency of the ProFocus laser cell with a particularly compact footprint and easy transportability.
Fraunhofer IPK in Berlin has commissioned a ProFocus LaserCell from OSCAR-PLT – marking a milestone for robot-guided wire laser deposition. The fully digital process chain, from 3D scanning to AI-controlled welding, enables efficient, resource-saving repair of metal components across industries. Discover how this partnership sets new standards for sustainable, high-precision manufacturing in Europe and beyond.

Trailing gas nozzles offer improved shielding gas coverage. This leads to a reduction in oxidation (annealing colours), which is particularly important when welding stainless steel or titanium. Unwanted changes to the component, such as pores in the seam and burn-off of alloying elements, are minimised. The nozzles are designed to distribute the shielding gas more efficiently and evenly around the welding point, thereby keeping the oxygen away from the heat-affected zone on the component.
We see our laser technology as an important and forward-looking addition to the mentioned processes. We can work dynamically on components and under normal conditions using localised shielding gas coverage. Minimising distortion and undesirable softening of the base materials are just some of the advantages that enable us to overcome production limits. With ProFocus, wire and powder materials can also be guided in one system and applied layer by layer, locally, and even in alternation, if needed. This flexibility does not exist with other processes.
Yes, we can configure the cameras so that they are suitable for the wavelength of your laser process.
