In recent years, high-power fiber laser products have made remarkable progress in “quantity”. According to the “laser pointer Industry Development Report”, the shipment of fiber lasers above 1500 watts accounted for approximately 34.5% of the total shipments in 2018. It is expected that the shipments of high-power lasers in 2019 will exceed imported lasers.
However, it is undeniable that high-power lasers still have a big gap with top manufacturers in terms of “quality”, and there is even a tendency to widen the gap in some indicators. Taking the total laser power output by the entire fiber as an example, the US IPG company has begun to sell customized 500,000 watt-level all-fiber industrial-grade lasers in 2018, and it is still in the 20,000-watt industrial-grade product verification stage in 2018.
The laser manufacturing industry continues to grow. The fiber laser broke through 30,000 watts. In response to the trend of increasing laser power demand and the gap in research and development levels outside the field of industrial-grade fiber lasers, it was established in 2017. In just over two years of establishment, through close cooperation, the single fiber 5000 watts and combined beams were quickly officially launched to the market. It outputs 30,000 watt standard industrial-grade products, and in May 2019, it obtained the inspection report with CNAS, CMA, and CAL qualifications issued by the National Laser Device Quality Supervision and Inspection Center of the Institute of Optoelectronics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and international mutual recognition under the ILAC system.
It is reported that the laser launched a single fiber module of 5000 watts, which is currently the highest power model available on the international market. At the same time, based on the 7-in-1 low-quantity beam combination solution, a 30,000-watt 200-micron output all-fiber laser was launched. , Is the first 30,000 watt industrial laser officially launched by the manufacturer. The company’s chief scientist, Professor Matthew Quan, said that the laser will “improve the strength of lasers qualitatively, catch up with international brands from the perspective of technical gold content, and contribute to the continuous growth of the laser manufacturing industry”.
Laser all-fiber 30,000-watt 200-micron combined beam output green laser pointer. The laser market has a bright future and the initial appearance of laser Moore’s law. At present, among the many industrial applications of laser technology, laser cutting equipment occupies the main position of the entire laser manufacturing equipment market with highly standardized characteristics, especially in the strong domestic demand of the metal processing industry, which supports laser cutting equipment in both quantity and quality in recent years. All aspects are showing a trend of rapid development.
