B Warranty
B.1 Limited Express Product Warranties
IPG warrants to the original Buyer or, if Buyer is an authorized IPG reseller or distributor, to Buyer's
original customer of the IPG Product, that the IPG Product conforms to applicable IPG Product
specifications and is free from defects in materials and workmanship. These nontransferable warranties
start on the shipment date from IPG (or other date specifically referencing the warranty start date in
IPG's sales order/order acknowledgment), and continue until the end of the warranty period listed in
IPG's sales order/order acknowledgment. If there is no warranty period listed, then warranty period is
one year. Products or major components manufactured by parties other than IPG bear the original
manufacturer's warranty and warranty period. The obligations of IPG are limited to the repair or
replacement (at IPG's option) of any Product that does not meet the IPG warranty during the warranty
period. IPG warrants repaired or replaced Products under warranty only for the remaining un-expired
period of time in the original warranty. IPG reserves the right to issue a credit note for any defective
Products that have proved defective through normal usage; Buyer debit memos are not allowed. This
warranty governs over any conflicting terms in Buyer's purchase order or other IPG documents except as
expressly provided herein.
B.2 Warranty Limitations
This warranty excludes and does not cover defects or damage resulting from any of the following:
contamination of external optical surfaces; unauthorized modification, misuse or mishandling,
disassembly or opening, neglect, or damage from accident; operation outside environmental
specifications or product ratings; user software or interfacing; components and accessories
manufactured by companies other than IPG, which have separate warranties; improper or inadequate
installation, site preparation or maintenance; or failure to follow information and precautions contained
in the operating manual. Additional warranty exceptions, limitations and exclusions may apply for laser
systems manufactured by IPG and its affiliates as set forth in the applicable quotation and sales
order/order acknowledgment. All products or components (including software) identified as
experimental, prototypes or to be used in field trials are not warranted and are provided to the Buyer on
an “as is” basis. IPG assumes no responsibility for Buyer or third-party supplied material, components,
systems or equipment. Products and repaired Products may contain components that have been
previously used in other products, however such Products meet IPG Product specifications for newly
manufactured Products. The Buyer must give prompt notification to IPG of any claim under the warranty
in writing. IPG has no responsibility for warranty claims more than 30 days after the Buyer discovers or
becomes aware of the claimed defect. Buyer is responsible for providing appropriate utilities and
operating environment as stated in the operating manual and the specifications. This warranty applies
only to the original Buyer at the initial installation or delivery point. Buyer must make all claims under
this warranty and no claim will be accepted from any third party.
EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH ABOVE, IPG SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS
ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS
TO BUYER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SUCH AS
FREEDOM FROM INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
