ACMER, the laser tools brand backed by a global leader in industrial laser solutions, has launched the XMetal 3-in-1 Fiber Laser Welder, Cutter & Cleaner, a compact handheld system designed to bring production-grade metal processing to small workshops, mobile repair technicians, and makers who have outgrown traditional welding methods.
Available in 900W and 1300W configurations, the XMetal combines three distinct metalworking capabilities — welding, cutting, and surface cleaning — into a single portable system weighing as little as 66 lb (30 kg) for the 900W model and 92.6 lb (42 kg) for the 1300W version. The system is designed to replace multiple tools with one workstation, reducing both equipment costs and workshop footprint.
Production-Grade Welding Without the TIG Learning Curve
The XMetal’s core capability is its fiber laser welding engine, which delivers single-side penetration of up to 6 mm on stainless steel and carbon steel for the 1300W model, and 4 mm on stainless steel and carbon steel for the 900W model. Both configurations handle aluminum, galvanized steel, and brass, with the 1300W model reaching 4 mm on aluminum and galvanized steel and 3 mm on brass.
The system features a built-in wire feeder, reducing the need for external equipment and shortening setup time between workstations. Users can start welding instantly with 108 smart presets, while Expert Mode unlocks full control over laser parameters for advanced applications.
For demanding jobs, the 1300W model can activate R Mode to boost output beyond its rated power, delivering additional penetration when needed.
Cut, Clean, and Prepare in One Pass
Beyond welding, the XMetal functions as a metal cutter and surface cleaner — eliminating the need for separate tools in the fabrication workflow.
Cutting Mode: Cuts up to 3 mm metal, allowing users to trim workpieces and prepare parts for production without switching to a separate cutting system.
Cleaning Mode: Removes rust, oxide, and surface residue with a one-pass cleaning width of up to 10 mm using the 800 mm focusing lens.
This 3-in-1 capability means a single operator can weld a joint, clean the surface for finishing, and trim excess material — all with the same handheld tool.
Built for Mobile Workflows and Tight Workspaces
The XMetal is engineered for portability and rapid deployment. The 900W model measures 23.0 × 11.7 × 18.5 inches and weighs 66 lb (30 kg) , while the 1300W model measures 26.7 × 11.3 × 19.8 inches and weighs 92.6 lb (42 kg) .
Both models operate on standard single-phase power, with the 900W drawing 16A at 3.4 kW and the 1300W drawing 22A at 4.8 kW. The system is rated for reliable operation across a wide temperature range, from -10°C to 40°C, and carries a 35,000-hour operational lifespan.

Who Is the XMetal For?
ACMER has positioned the XMetal for professionals and serious makers who need metal joining and finishing capabilities without the infrastructure demands of TIG or MIG welding.
Target users include:
- Small fabrication shops and metalworkers — weld stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, and brass with minimal heat distortion
- Mobile repair technicians and installers — the compact, lightweight system fits in a van and deploys on-site in minutes
- Automotive and motorcycle restorers — weld thin-gauge sheet metal and clean rusted surfaces in one pass
- Jewelry makers and precision fabricators — the handheld form factor provides controlled fusion on delicate components
- Makers and DIY enthusiasts — 108 smart presets lower the learning curve for first-time users
- Small business owners — replace separate welders, cutters, and cleaning tools with one integrated system
Summary
The ACMER XMetal represents a practical consolidation of three metalworking tools into a single, portable fiber laser workstation. By combining welding, cutting, and cleaning in one handheld system — and backing it with smart presets that make the machine accessible to first-time users — ACMER is targeting the growing market of small workshops, mobile professionals, and makers who need professional metal processing without the industrial footprint.
With two power configurations, a built-in wire feeder, and a compact design that fits on any workbench, the XMetal is positioned as a versatile solution for anyone who works with metal — from weekend fabricators to full-time repair professionals.
