Femtosecond Fiber Laser With Amplifier

For micro machining applications, femto second lasers offer a great advantage over existing laser systems. Due to their short pulses and multiple photon absorption almost every material can be machined without causing thermal induction into the material.

Until now laser sources suffered from their complexity and the lack of stability prevented continuous industrial operation. Fiber lasers represent the future, since only they offer the combination of compactness and reliability needed for industrial environments.

The first femtosecond fiber laser to fully meet specifications for industrial laser micro machining and offer complete PC operation comes from Raydiance USA. The software which controls the laser functions and relies on continuous input from various sensors inside the unit is a vital part of the whole system. Remote operation and maintenance can be conducted with a standard internet connection.

Numerous application reports for machining of glass, metal, bio material and stent manufacturing are already available.
