Details on all of our laser measurement instruments.

A laser beam profiler will increase your chance of success anytime you wish to design or apply a laser or when you find your laser system is no longer meeting specifications. You would ...

Case Study: During production and, above all, during the final inspection of the laser systems, the measured parameters are continually compared against the specifications.

To ensure the high quality of each laser system, thorough end-of-line testing is mandatory before a laser system is delivered.

Here are three tips how to ensure precise measurement with your Ophir BeamSquared system over years.

Beam attenuation is critical because lasers designed for cutting sheet steel will have no trouble cutting through a beam profiler if the beam power isn't attenuated.

The underlying operational principle is based on the fact that residues of body fluids, natural oils and sweat absorb radiation in the infrared range.

Many non-invasive methods for measuring blood glucose have failed because they were not accurate enough: Glucose values in body fluids such as tears, saliva or sweat do not correlate ...

Among hundreds of variables that are associated with an Additive Manufacturing process are the many variables associated with the laser that is used within the system. These lasers ...

Ensuring beam quality in automated industrial laser materials processing poses many challenges for measurement technology. MKS addressed these challenges by developing Ophir BeamWatch ...

With lasers there will always be opportunities for improvement. Reliable technology for measuring the laser beam can really help with process optimization.

Beyond knowing power or energy, most laser owners and operators have never seen their beam in real time, because most lasers are invisible to the human eye. Users rely on the certification ...

The technology used in the BeamWatch laser beam profilers enables the measurement of high-power beams without ever touching the laser beam. As the technology is relatively new, it has ...

Setup and location of the beam was relatively simple. The X and Y movements were used in conjunction with the 633 nm target laser to center the beam on the camera chip.

Dynamic range is meant to characterize the ratio between the highest and lowest measurable signals (i.e. the signal range). As we've written before on our blog, most laser beam profiling ...

Successful outcomes require the power density distribution of the laser beam, as it is delivered to the work, to be symmetrical, uniform, and stable.

There are a number of valuable tools found on the Ophir web site that help lasers users determine the appropriate sensors for their laser beams. These tools also help compute power ...

To create consistent, strong structures using laser-based additive manufacturing processes that meet flyable DOD standards or FDA requirements, the metallurgy must be consistent. In ...

A laser profiling system can be of great benefit in helping to characterize and identify which variables affect product quality and waste minimization.

Often we get requests for the Total Optical Path Length when beam splitters are used on our line of 4.5 mm recessed CCD cameras.
