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 ...

High power laser application has significantly increased in recent years due to new production techniques that enable cheaper manufacturing and operating costs. Applications of high-power ...

Whether in research or in production, the laser parameters must be checked regularly. For this purpose, Fraunhofer IAPT generally turns to the Ophir BeamWatch AM, which measures the ...

Determining the beam profile at the beam focus of these lasers is critical to verify and improve manufacturing product quality. However, there are enormous challenges that must be overcome ...

When we developed BeamWatch AM, we not only drew diagrams and thought about great features, we also talked to experienced manufacturers of selective laser melting (SLM) machines about ...

Researchers are devising ways of generating and using more complex higher-order multimode formats, such as a TEM03 or TEM33. Some current examples are: telecommunications, analytical ...

BeamWatch AM has been designed specifically for use in the additive manufacturing industry to provide non-interfering real-time beam measurement at the location of the working plan ...

When applications call for beam diagnostics in the SWIR spectral range, specifically the 1.5 μm region, there are two practical options available: a phosphor-coated CCD camera or an ...

Automated measurement of important parameters in the production context improve quality and ensure transparent processes; this also applies to laser welding and cutting.

You may be wondering what to expect when you ask us for a laser beam profiling demo. Here's how it works.

The scientific community is often faced with the requirement of testing, validating, or merely qualifying several laser sources planned for a particular project.

A developer of power-bed additive manufacturing systems needed a beam profiling system that could be used by their field technicians for setup and maintenance of customers’ lasers.

Is it possible to image a UV laser with a Silicon Sensor CCD camera offered by Ophir-Spiricon? The answer is yes, but the direct UV light ablates Silicon CCD chips over time. The ablation ...

Measuring the performance of a laser has possible for a number of years and is accomplished with a variety of techniques. These electronic laser measurement solutions give the laser ...

BeamGage does have the ability to run multiple instances while connected to the same camera source, which can add benefits such as simultaneous mutually exclusive results. For instance, ...

BeamGage does have the ability to lock out controls and the modification of reported results through the Options Privileges feature.

The use of lasers to perform this heat treating process has become a well-accepted approach. Understanding the beam shape, the uniformity of its intensity, and the cleanliness of the ...

The skills required to understand, troubleshoot, and correct problems with lasers, and the systems they are a part of, are in high demand. It's all part of an evolution whereby yesterday's ...

Questions like these are common, given the sheer number of parameters Ophir's BeamGage software calculates from each beam profile. When faced with all these various metrics, it's natural ...
