In building the bead that you flatten into a pad, did you build it that rapidly? I'm new to laser welding and the bead falls off the wire if I go that rapidly.
This process only works on diamonds, shooting from the side to get full penetration will damage colored stones. The use of redi-prongs saves time here. Johns prep is perfect then the redi-prong is placed further over the stone approx 2/3 on stone. Then the first Tac will penetrate 100% to the girdle making filling from the sides not needed. This allows you to retip colored stones. Then backfill to the outside of the prong until its completely rebuilt, using the rebuilt material as reflection shield for your colored stone. Making balls and flattening them is very time consuming even using a burst mode to get all uniform size balls the redi-prongs are much faster and more uniform. I do hundreds of tips a week with this method, as well as the ball method on Micro-pave. In 2004 I became the first Certified Master Laser Welder Instructor in the world.
Hello Everyone, I am looking for the user manual for Rofin Sinar RS 100 D, ND YAG Laser. I got it used, it appears to work, but I cannot say for sure as I don't know how to start it. Each piece of information will help me to put it to work.
@@stonehand49 took a peek at your site and drooled over that Black Beauty you got, now that'w what you call a true Black Opal. looks like candy, satisfying. anyway I don't knock the laser. I've used one to repair a motherboard. computer repairs as hobby, cause for the life of me, I can't still master the electric pen. my fault cause been using a cheap one instead of buying a real pen. I just use my torch.
@@stonehand49 Not only that ,laser weld is welding only on the outside of retipped prong and isn't strong. If you use more intensity to weld it all the way thru then you will burn your diamond. I have been using this welder for about 18 years now.
Hi sir i am a lazer welder i have a good experience about this work if u need a Worker for this job so please contect me I never need a lot of money i just love this work and i want to do this in another country
Hi Leah - They are: 200v, 1.5ms, .40mm, 6.0hz. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact our Tools Tech Team at 800-877-7777 ext. 4300. All the best!
I can retip a ring with solder, faster and better, laser welding is time consuming, also 3d printing sucks, it is a total FAILURE, CLEANIG IS A PAIN IN THE BUTT
@@brunodiartbruno8184 - I'm not sure your question was clearly understood. Did you mean "wide" or "wire"? It was repeated three times, but "wire" seems to make more sense to me. (I don't have the answer - just trying to clarify your question for someone else who might.)
Thanks for share your precious experience

Hi nice work .please tell me the cost and company of the machine ur using please do reply....
What happens if you don't grind the prong down before you work on it? And just add the gold? Thanks
Kyle Roath The metal is less likely to adhere and it gives you a nice clean surface to add metal to
What settings are you using the bead up the ball and then weld it?
how many joules is the power of laser?
an excellent sniper
Does your more affordable laser Midi Orotig do this also? Do you sell the wire?
The claw next to it on the right is also breaking up, that looks like a brittle setting.
What hertz you r using
porosity have a problem with?

I certainly hope you weren't finished.
No way!
I can do it better and faster with solder an fire.

Not a very nice finish?
Bathsheba Grossman Afterwards he'll file and tidy up the prong. It won't be left like that
@@davidlane147 hi ..are there some smoke on diamond ?
Brunodiart Bruno Sometimes when lasering, smokey residue can get onto to diamond but that just wipes off
@@davidlane147 thank you very much david...
To retip a prong or add material ,what kind of wide ?
Soldering wide or Gold wide?
