Laser Beam Analysis Resources

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 …

AM involves building up a structure by adding material to it layer by layer, with each layer being a precise cross section of the structure. Originally used for rapid prototyping, AM …

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.

Ophir provides mutual interconnections between different Ophir products via adapters with various threads, designed to exactly fit required optical path distances for each device.

Here are three tipps 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.

When purchasing a highly advanced laser for use in the workplace, such as a laser, learning how to properly apply, troubleshoot, and evaluate that device becomes very important.

The development of this multi-focal laser welding process was significantly accelerated by the compact Ophir BeamWatch measuring device from MKS, which measures laser beams in real …

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.

This document is intended to show how the process of obtaining data and providing measurements using Ophir-Spiricon’s Rayleigh-scatter beam profiling technology, BeamWatch®, aligns …

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 …

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 …

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 …
