Laser pointer cutting is used in metal processing, which can reduce the processing procedures…

The quality and quantity of high-power fiber laser pointer products

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…

Features and application advantages of high-power fiber laser pointer

1. The advantages of high-power fiber lasers At present, the continuous output power of commercial fiber laser pointer has risen to the order of several kilowatts or even 10,000 watts. Compared with general lasers, fiber lasers have many unique advantages, such as good beam quality; small size, light weight, and maintenance-free; wind cooling, simple and easy to…

Laser pointer that operates on highly reflective materials

These high-power fiber lasers are standard tools for metal laser cutting and welding in the macro application branch. The standard cutting system is usually equipped with a compact fiber laser pointer. Depending on the power of the cutting system and the thickness of the sheet, it is equipped with a direct processing fiber with a core…

Heat-affected zone for better laser pointer processing quality

Collect the back reflection light in the isolator and monitor it with a photodiode. The real-time output of the sensor is provided to the user for use in process monitoring, optimization and control (such as perforation detection), or tool calibration (such as beam position and focus). Other characteristics of laser pointer outlined include improved cutting and welding…

Kilowatt fiber laser technology has matured

Fiber lasers combine active (laser gain) fiber with one or more pump lasers (usually laser diodes). There are many types of fiber laser pointer, including low-power continuous (CW) lasers, low-energy and high-energy pulsed lasers, including ultrafast fiber lasers. But when it comes to fiber lasers, many people may think of only kilowatt continuous fiber lasers. This…
