Buying guides and process comparisons written from Vantix's own published spec sheets and Canadian prices — what a handheld laser welder costs in Canadian dollars, how weld penetration scales with power, and how laser compares with the processes it replaces. Every figure on these pages traces to a Vantix source document or is labelled when it cannot.
Vantix laser welders start from $32,000 CAD. The real total cost includes consumables, safety gear and training — and the comparison that matters is against hiring a TIG welder at $75,000 to $110,000 a year.
These guides exist because the machines do. The welding cluster is built on the Vantix HLW — air-cooled 1.5, 2 and 3 kW or water-cooled 2 and 3 kW, welding to 10 mm at 3 kW, from $32,000 CAD. When the reading turns into a shortlist, start with all five Vantix machine lines or go straight to the welding overview.
