Welding model parts and components
Originality is one of the most important criteria in model making. In addition to scale, materials, colors and functions, detailedness is particularly important. With a Lampert welding machine, workpieces and model components made of a wide range of metal alloys can be welded without any problems. The weld seam can also be executed true to the original. Weld your model components in Lampert quality too!
Welding a stainless steel excavator bucket
The excavator shovel was made from 16 individual parts from 1 mm thick stainless steel sheet according to custom-made plans and the shovel was doubled to 2 mm thickness at the most heavily strained areas. The weld seams were not reworked in order to preserve the weld bead with its characteristic flaking, just like on the original model. The boom and chassis of the excavator can be welded in the same way.
Welding components for model turbine
The paddle wheel was mounted on the frame with fine spot welds. Both tack welding using individual spot welds and creating a continuous weld seam are possible, depending on requirements. In addition, the Lampert welding device enables surface repairs of damage and imperfections at any time by applying material using welding wire.
Low loader frame and handlebar parts welding
The frame parts and steering connectors were cut with a laser and then welded to the bearing bushes on the joints using a Lampert welding machine. No post-processing was required thanks to the exact and precise welding.
Brass chassis "Garratt", stapled and soldered
Steam locomotives are among the most challenging model building projects in general. In this case, the realization of the chassis in brass was an additional challenge. The builder decided to tack the brass parts together using individual welding points and to fix them in place and then solder the seams for reasons of appearance. Continuous welding of brass parts with corresponding weld seams is also not a problem with Lampert technology.
Welding chassis and lift arms - skid steer loader 1:12
On this skid steer loader kit (“Bobcat”), both the chassis and the lifting arms for the bucket were not only plugged in, but also welded – for greater stability and a true-to-original appearance.
Welding tipper body - MAN short hood 1:13.5
On this masterpiece, the entire tipper body was welded together from individual (stainless) steel parts in accordance with the original model, then painted and then aged by means of artificially induced corrosion to create the same wear and patina as in reality after many years of operation.
Welding a structural cage
Lampert welding technology is ideal for manufacturing structural parts, e.g. roll cages for vehicles or support structures and cockpit cages for model airplanes. The welds not only give the parts outstanding stability and rigidity, they are also a visual highlight at every joint.
Welding complete wheel loader chassis
All the individual parts of this self-constructed, true-to-original wheel loader were welded together. The weld seams were made exactly as in the original and painted over without sanding or other finishing. The result speaks for itself – from close distance, it can hardly be distinguished from the original.
