Who it suits
The M3 is a jewelry laser welder for repair shops, jewelry stores, personalization studios and small workshops that meet the same problems: no room for another machine, repairs sent out, a laser that needs a chiller and a computer, and settings nobody on staff can set.
Pick your kind of business below and start from the day that goes wrong today.
The problems first
Every buyer of a jewelry laser welder for repair shops, stores or studios meets some of these eight. The sections below show which ones, what the day looks like today, and what changes with the M3 on the bench.
Fine jewelry is hard to weld · Upkeep is a burden
Today · Fine joints near stones
With the M3
The QCW source fires a spot set by motor from 0.1 to 2.0 mm, pulse width 0.2–15 ms, while the jeweler watches the prong through the 10X microscope with both hands on the ring. Heat stays local, so the stone can often stay where it is.
At 120 W with 1,200 W peak, it is built for jewelry-scale joints like this, not thick sections.
The same cabinet also marks and cuts, so a hallmark or a small replacement part never leaves the workshop.
The week changes at the bench: stone-adjacent repairs stay in one session instead of three steps, and nobody schedules lamp changes or chiller water around the work.
The shop is too small · Repair alone earns a limited margin
Today · Repairs sent out
With the M3
As a jewelry laser welder for repair shops inside a store, the M3 sits on the counter at 300 × 340 × 320 mm with its cooling inside, on one AC 220 V socket.
The link is welded while the customer is still in the store, and the camera puts the joint on the 10 inch screen so the customer can watch. The same machine engraves a name inside a band on the rotary device, turning a repair visit into a second sale.
Repairs that stay in the store also stay in the store's own records, with the camera image on file if a customer asks later.
The week changes at the counter: small welding jobs stop leaving the store, customers come back to collect sooner, and engraving adds a sale to visits that used to be repair only.
Buying three machines costs too much · Different pieces need different machines
Today · Three steps, three places
With the M3
The MOPA source marks and cuts in the same 70 × 70 mm field at 0.01 mm, so the piece is cut from sheet and engraved without leaving the machine.
The operator switches to the welding program on the same screen and welds the jump ring under the microscope. Stainless steel and brass take color marks and anodized aluminum takes black, adding products the studio can list.
One operator can take an order from sheet to finished piece in a single sitting, and the next order starts from the same presets.
The week changes in the studio: orders stop waiting for blanks or a free afternoon at the solder station, and color-marked pieces add listings without adding a machine.
Nobody knows the parameters · A computer is one more thing to buy
Today · No plumbing, new staff
With the M3
The M3 needs one socket and no water. Welding starts from the material dial, so a new operator loads GOLD or SILVER and trims from the first weld read under the microscope or on the camera image. Two people carry the 30 kg cabinet between the studio and an event.
Between events the same machine welds repairs and engraves, so it earns on the days without a booking.
The week changes at events: setup is one socket, a new staff member starts from the dial, and the camera image lets a senior jeweler check the first welds remotely on the screen.
Different pieces need different machines · Upkeep is a burden
Today · Work spread across machines
With the M3
Repair welding, sample welding, marking and thin sheet cutting run on one machine, with material presets for welding and file import for marking in PLT, DXF, AI, BMP, JPG, PNG and other formats.
Fiber sources are rated above 100,000 hours, air cooling removes the chiller from the maintenance list, and the rotary device, cutting fixture and extraction are added for the jobs that need them.
New staff learn one screen instead of three machines, and the settings that worked on a sample stay in the machine for the production run.
The week changes in the sample room: prototypes, returns and serials move through one machine, parameters live in presets and files, and one maintenance schedule replaces three.
Repair alone earns a limited margin
Today · A shelf of look-alike welders
With the M3
The M3 is a machine the single-function brands do not offer: welding, MOPA marking and cutting in one 30 kg air-cooled desktop cabinet.
It demonstrates on a trade show table, reaches repair shops, stores, studios and workshops alike, and runs on the protective lens as its routine consumable. Interface and logo can carry the distributor's brand through OEM, ODM or SKD, and demo units ship straight to a trade show.
Your customers can send their own pieces for a test before they buy, which shortens the sale.
The week changes for the sales team: a demo that shows welding, engraving and cutting on one table, fewer service calls about lamps and water, and a product with their own logo on it.
One Saturday
Configuration
Welding is the same 120 W QCW with 1,200 W peak on every M3. The MOPA tier follows the work beyond welding, and it is confirmed on your own pieces before a quotation. Whatever the tier, these stay the same on every machine:
| Buyer | Usual tier | Work it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Bench jewelers, stores with a repair counter | 10 W | Surface marks: names, dates, logos, serials |
| Personalization studios | 20 W | Deeper engraving and color marking |
| Studios that cut their own pieces | 30 W | Routine thin sheet cutting |
| Sample rooms and workshops | 60 W | All-day cutting and deep engraving |
Honest fit
Five questions
If you answer yes to two or more, the M3 is worth testing on your own work. Tick the boxes as you read; the answer appears below the list.
One yes usually means a single-function machine is enough. Two or more means the jobs you do already cross between welding, engraving and cutting, which is the work the M3 puts in one place.
Tick the questions that apply to your bench.
Your own bench
Send one piece you weld, one you engrave and one you cut, or describe a normal week at your bench. We run them on an M3, return them with the settings written down, and tell you which MOPA configuration fits. Distributors can ask about OEM, ODM or SKD in the same message.
