• Precision control for delicate work: Adjustable 0.2–2.0 mm laser spot and programmable pulse shaping support accurate welding on chains, prongs, molds, and micro-repairs.
• Efficient, workshop-friendly operation: Low energy consumption and integrated cooling make it ideal for daily bench use without complex infrastructure.
• Comfort built for long sessions: Ergonomic armrests and intuitive touchscreen control reduce fatigue and keep workflow moving during extended use.
• Reliable Italian engineering: Designed for durability, consistency, and professional performance backed by a 1-year warranty.

Technical Overview

The TauMac 165J is a benchtop laser welder built around an Nd:YAG 1064 nm laser source—trusted across jewelry, dental, and micro-fabrication industries for clean energy delivery and minimal thermal distortion. Motorized spot adjustment, programmable pulse shaping, and touchscreen parameter control allow operators to fine-tune weld penetration, heat spread, and surface finish with confidence.

A combined water and air cooling system helps maintain stable performance during prolonged work sessions, making this platform a practical choice for repair benches and light production environments.

Why Choose This 165J TauMac Laser Welder

Choosing the TauMac 165J means investing in true professional laser welding performance without the footprint or cost of large industrial systems. Its Italian-engineered design prioritizes reliability, efficiency, and operator comfort—making it a practical long-term solution for serious shops.

Built for daily professional use and supported by a 1-year warranty, this system delivers the control and consistency expected from a laser welder for jewelers and precision labs—while remaining compact enough to fit comfortably on the bench.

How the 165J TauMac Laser Welder Works

The 165J TauMac uses a focused Nd:YAG 1064 nm laser beam to deliver controlled bursts of energy directly to the weld point. Instead of heating the entire piece like traditional soldering, the laser concentrates energy into a precise spot—melting and fusing the metal exactly where needed. This highly localized energy transfer allows you to weld gold, silver, platinum, and other precious alloys with exceptional control.

For gold welding, the system delivers clean, strong fusion without introducing additional solder material. The adjustable pulse time (0.1–25 ms) and energy control up to 165J allow you to fine-tune penetration for everything from delicate chain links to heavy shanks. You can match color and alloy precisely by welding with the same base metal, resulting in seamless, high-integrity repairs.

When working with silver and highly reflective metals like platinum, the 165J model provides the peak power required to overcome reflectivity. With up to 6.5 kW of peak power and adjustable spot sizes down to 0.2 mm, it delivers sufficient energy density to create stable weld pools—even on bright or polished surfaces—without excessive heat spread.

Minimal Heat, Maximum Control

One of the most important advantages of a professional benchtop laser welder is its minimal heat-affected zone. Because the energy is delivered in short, controlled pulses directly at the weld site, surrounding areas remain largely untouched.

This allows you to:

• Weld near heat-sensitive stones such as diamonds and many sapphires
• Repair prongs without removing stones in many cases
• Avoid discoloration and fire scale
• Reduce polishing and refinishing time after repair
• Work on hollow or lightweight pieces without distortion

Compared to torch soldering, the laser dramatically reduces overall thermal exposure, helping preserve structural integrity and protecting surrounding materials.

Common Applications

The 165J TauMac is a versatile laser welder for jewelers and precision workshops. Typical applications include:

• Ring resizing (both adding and removing material)
• Prong rebuilding and retipping
• Chain repair and clasp repair
• Porosity repair in castings
• Crack repair in platinum and white gold
• Rebuilding worn settings
• Attaching jump rings without solder flow
• Dental framework welding
• Micro-assembly and precision metal fabrication

The combination of motorized spot adjustment (0.2–2.0 mm), programmable pulse shaping, and up to 165J of energy makes this a true quality laser welder capable of handling both delicate micro-welds and more demanding structural repairs.

Whether you are operating a retail jewelry repair bench, a production studio, or a dental laboratory, the 165J TauMac provides the controlled power necessary to weld efficiently, cleanly, and with professional repeatability.
