@annjessup1670 I haven't specifically used the Orion 150, but I have used the Orion mPulse welder (as well as a Sunstone laser welder) and one of the biggest differences is the microscope setup and how the electrode holder faces the work. With the PUK welder, you're looking down in the same direction as the pointed electrode so you can EXACTLY where it's touching the work. With the Sunstone welders the electrode is aiming from the opposite direction, and it can be difficult to see where it is making contact. This makes a world of difference when doing intricate work, like retipping on sensitive colored stones. Overall, the PUK 6 is an amazing machine- you won't be disappointed with it.
@annjessup1670 Happy to help! If you have any other questions just let me know. I've been doing micro welding for around 18 years (jeweler for over 26 years) and have been fortunate enough to have access to some nice tools. There's also a full review on my website- www.making-to-learn.com/tools
That's one crazy delicate welding device 🙂 , Could make wire mesh art or something. Wow £5,040.00 price tag id be fearful neglecting it and breaking it 😀
It's really an amazing machine. After using one for over two years it still surprises me at just how versatile it is. I wouldn't worry about breaking it- the build quality is outstanding and Lampert has fantastic customer service.
@drvova1972 Yes I have welded different titanium alloys but not aluminum. The previous version of this machine had presets for aluminum so it should be possible.
I only had one camera and it was too difficult moving it back and forth. I just got another camera so I'll try to include setting in any future videos.
If you have any info, how does this compare to the Sunstone Orion 150?

@ thank you for taking the time to respond! I appreciate the insight and (if you’re in the US) Happy Thanksgiving!

😮😮😮amazing spectacular tool,mind,work etcr❤
Damn that thing is cool! I might get me one, one day 👍✔️
For high precision intricate welds in materials up to 1mm thickness it's the best machine out there. It really is amazing what it can do.

Nice, but why don't you show your settings when you use it?
