Customer Case

2025-07-16

How does a 4-in-1 laser welding machine change metal manufacturing?

What if a single machine could handle cutting, welding, and cleaning on-site—eliminating subcontractors and slashing project timelines? A leading Bosnian turnkey supplier, known for gas stations, car washes, shoe factories, wedding venues, and retail shops, discovered just that when they partnered with SENFENG to deploy the SF3000HW laser welding machine. Backed by SENFENG’s expert pre-sales consultation, the customer now enjoys seamless metal fabrication workflows, higher weld quality, and faster site completions.

Why SF3000HW Laser Welder?

The advantages of SF3000HW Laser Welder
3–10× Faster Welding Speeds	Thanks to a high-power fiber laser and optimized beam delivery, the CNC laser welder fuses metal at speeds up to ten times faster than arc welding—dramatically reducing cycle times.
Superior Weld Strength & Aesthetics	The CNC laser welding machine enables deep-penetration fusion welding, delivering smooth, spatter-free beads and weld-joint strengths that exceed arc-weld standards—no post-grinding, no rework needed.
Plug-and-Play Simplicity	The handheld laser welding machine features a one-button weld start and intuitive HMI, drastically shortening the learning curve. General fabricators are fully productive after only a few days of training.
Four-in-One Functionality	The 4-in-1 laser welder integrates modules for laser cutting, laser welding, and laser cleaning, streamlining the entire workflow—prep, join, and finish—in a single pass.
All-Terrain Adaptability	Robust electrical components and a compact, mobile design ensure stable performance in both indoor workshops and outdoor job sites.

Customer Background

Over more than ten years, this Bosnia-based company has built a reputation as a true one-stop provider of infrastructure and facility services. From fueling stations to elegant event venues, their turnkey projects demand reliable, high-quality metalwork—often in challenging indoor and outdoor environments.

Country: Bosnia and Herzegovina
Industry: One-stop service industry
Original Equipment: Arc welding machine
SENFENG Equipment: SF3000HW Laser Welding Machine
Application: Welding 6mm carbon steel and stainless steel sheets

Challenges Faced

Prior to adopting laser technology, the customer’s metal-fabrication process was fragmented:

The difficulties that the customer encountered during welding in the past
Low Welding Efficiency	Traditional arc welding was slow and operator-dependent, creating bottlenecks as project volume increased.
Inconsistent Weld Strength	Surface spatter and shallow penetration meant many welds required rework or reinforcement.
Environmental & Safety Concerns	Arc welding produced heavy smoke, ultraviolet radiation, and spatter, driving up ventilation needs and safety measures.
High Processing Costs	Outsourced cleaning (blast or chemical) added transport, handling, and labor costs—often delaying subsequent construction phases.

Processing Requirements

To streamline project execution, the customer needed a mobile, all-in-one system that could:

• Cut, weld, and clean 6 mm carbon steel and stainless steel plates
• Operate reliably indoors or outdoors
• Require minimal operator training
• Deliver consistent, high-strength welds with zero spatter

SENFENG’s team conducted a thorough site survey and part-analysis, ultimately recommending the SF3000HW laser welding machine, proven to cover 80% of their on-site metal-fabrication needs in one compact unit.

Pre-Sales Consultation & Virtual Demonstration

Unable to visit SENFENG’s Jinan headquarters, the customer joined a live online session where SENFENG’s engineers:

• Conducted real-time welding tests on 6 mm carbon steel and stainless steel based on customer-provided drawings
• Showcased seamless switching between welding, cutting, and cleaning modes
• Demonstrated the laser cutting and cleaning capabilities in action
• Explained safety protocols, power requirements, and advanced weld types (butt, fillet, corner welds).
• Provided a virtual factory tour, highlighting SENFENG’s end-to-end capabilities—from robot welding and laser cutting to cladding and surface finishing.

This transparent, interactive experience instilled confidence in SENFENG’s technology and capacity—sealing the purchase decision.

Production Outcomes & Benefits

Within weeks of deploying the 4-in-1 laser welder, the customer realized transformative results:

60% Faster Project Turnaround

On-site weld cycles shrank by more than half, enabling multiple concurrent site builds.

100% Elimination of Rework

Zero spatter and uniform weld quality meant no downstream grinding or corrective welding—saving hours per joint.

40% Reduction in Processing Costs

In-house laser cleaning replaced outsourced services, cutting logistics fees and manpower expenses.

Enhanced Safety & Environmental Compliance

Minimal fume and ultraviolet emission reduced ventilation requirements and improved operator wellbeing.

Expanded Service Offerings

Operators leveraged the laser cutting and cleaning modes to tackle architectural accents, stainless-steel facades, and decorative fixtures—opening new revenue streams.

These benefits not only accelerated ongoing projects but also elevated the customer’s market reputation as a fast, high-quality turnkey provider.
