Pulsed laser - Import export

The laser processing station VersaCut precisely ablates and cuts a large variety of materials, such as metals (stainless steel, nonferrous metals), ceramics like Si or AlN, and all kind of plastics. Depending on the indented use, the station uses different laser sources with the corresponding focusing optics. The modular VersaCut finds it application in research and production.A solid-state laser delivering short pulses in the nanosecond regime is ideal for cutting stainless steel, Kovar, brass and similar metals. The high peak power with a small focus on the target generates the necessary power density for clean and sharp cuts. There is however an impact on the surrounding area as some local heating occurs. The high peak power allows also for cutting and ablating plastics, even if the laser wavelength does not match the linear absorption of the plastic.

The Select laser welder is a freestanding, fully integrated system with a large workspace and unique control concept. Manual welding, joystickcontrolled deposition welding or complete CNC automation Equipped with a fiber laser or a pulsed NdYAG laser source, the Select offers a unique welding concept with four highprecision axes, short setup times and simple CNC programming. Parameter input is simple and requires no special knowhow via a multifunctional joystick and/or a large touchscreen.

The Coherent desktop laser is a universally applicable, compact system for manual welding tasks. To ensure reliability and high quality process results, the system features computercontrolled laser pulses, monitored cooling, easy workpiece positioning via the stereo microscope, and a welding assistance system. The efficient housing design provides a large work space, yet is compact enough to fit in tight spaces.
