iWeld Laser Welder for Jewelry Repair & Design: LaserStar Leads the Way in Hot Light!
Leave it to the leading laser manufacturer to improve on a good thing. LaserStar Technologies, a driver in marketplace innovation of laser welders, continues to push the edge by expanding product capabilities and developing advanced features on their latest products, all while reducing the out of pocket cost for retailers. Understanding that retailers need tools to build additional revenue streams beyond finished goods sales was a driving factor when developing new product, and today retailers of all sizes are the beneficiary of a company that cares.
LaserStar’s iWeld® family of laser welders delivers speed and accuracy at a price even small jewelers can afford.
LaserStar’s recent contribution to the jewelry industry is their iWeld® Laser Welding product line – a manual laser welder equipped with enhanced power and accuracy. Now in its 3rd generation, the iWeld® portfolio offers retailers many choices they didn’t have in previous models.
Would you prefer a table top model or portable pedestal device? What color would you like your iWeld® to be? Sapphire Blue or Ruby Red? Does your operator prefer the ClearView Scope or the Leica Scope? You can even choose the Removable Chamber Option if it fits your needs. So many choices…
But it’s the intentional design with price in mind, without comprising the quality of the machine, that makes this product line appealing to businesses of any size.
“This family of products is targeted to all skill and financial levels,” remarks James Gervais, president and chief operating officer of LaserStar Technologies. “You don’t need to be a master jeweler to operate it and we’ve reduced the price range so that even the smallest companies can afford it. And, as always, our products come in a 120V version so that our customers can plug into any regular outlet. We are the only company that offers this.”
Out of pocket spend on an iWeld® laser system ranges from $16,000 to $22,000, almost $10,000 below their next level of laser welding machines. iWeld is safe to use on a variety of metals, including silver, making the machine an essential part of developing revenue from repairs or custom work. LaserStar ensures the highest level of hot-light energy transfer from the source through the welding chamber, reducing retailer liability. And the machine is designed with operator comfort in mind, complete with ergonomic features.
But LaserStar doesn’t stop there. Because they are the only laser welder manufacturer based in America they offer two-day laser welder training sessions to their customers where training is done while working on actual jobs, making the training session even more productive. Trainees learn to use their iWeld® while repairing 3 stone rings, tennis bracelet clasps and even eye wear repair.
“We’ve really listened to our customers who told us we needed a product line that came in under $20,000, and we went straight to the drawing board to create the iWeld® Laser Welding System portfolio,” states Gervais. “iWeld is important to us and the success of this line is tremendous. We’ve sold over 800 machines to the domestic jewelry industry alone and we will continue to support our retailers because we are headquartered right here in the U.S. with them.”

Benefits of Leasing
Benefits of Leasing
Buy things that appreciate, and lease things that depreciate.
BUSINESS 101
You would not pay your employees four or five years in advance. Why should you pay for your equipment in advance? Pay for it as it earns you money. This is the opportunity that leasing will give you.
PAY FOR IT AS IT PAYS YOU
Having consistent, fixed payments throughout the term of your lease will help you to accurately budget equipment dollars, while financing options with floating interest rates will always keep you guessing.
KNOW WHAT YOU OWE
Many lease companies provide you the opportunity to choose. At the conclusion of your lease, you may purchase the equipment at the stated dollar amount, continue your lease at a lower monthly rate, or simply return the equipment with no further obligation.
FREEDOM TO CHOOSE
Rather than expend 10-20% of your cash on hand to acquire your equipment, many lease companies require no more than first and last month’s lease payment as a down payment.
SAVE YOUR ARM AND LEG
Leasing companies design their leasing programs in a way to provide you a quick and easy approval, as opposed to the lengthy and complicated process you’ll discover in funding through banks.
IT’S FASTER, IT’S EASIER
Advancing technology means the best of today is obsolete tomorrow. Leasing equipment can protect you by allowing the equipment you need today for the amount of time it will be useful to you. When the best technology of tomorrow is available, a lease company will help you acquire the capital to purchase it.
PROTECT YOURSELF
Leasing companies provide 100% financing by including a specific amount of soft costs (including installation, freight, extended warranties) in your transaction, unlike most traditional financing sources.
YOU CAN GET IT ALL
Your lease payments can be deducted as a business operating expense, in most cases, reducing the net cost of your lease for the term of your contract.
GOOD TAX NEWS
By leasing your equipment, and avoiding a sizable cash outlay, you can conserve your on-hand capital for more important uses, such as investments, inventory, personnel and advertising.
SAVE YOUR CASH
When your purchase equipment with borrowed funds, your credit lines with that lender are sizably reduced. When you lease your equipment, you can conserve lines of credit for emergencies, or other purposes, and subsequently establish a separate line of credit, and maintain an excellent credit history.
