Laser cutters are primarily classified by their laser source, which determines: For most users, everything comes down to ...

[Jeshua Lacock] from 3DTOPO owns a large-format CNC (4’x8′, or 1.2×2.4 m), that he strongly feels is lacking laser-cutting capabilities. The frame is there, and a 150 W CO2 laser tube has been sitting ...

Little Rock, Ark.—Power Technology Inc. is offering high-power blue and violet laser diodes for use with its PM laser module, 405nm at 60mW, helping to cut costs and increase variety. PTI's blue and ...

The absolute smallest modules in the world contain the laser diode, drive electronics, and optics all in a metal housing. They can be operated directly with 3VDC without additional electronics. The ...

Third-Generation Combined Power Modules (CPM III) Use Single Emitter Diodes to Deliver Over 20,000 Hours MTTF Operation New from Alfalight Inc is the AC3-808B and AC3-808BW series of high-brightness ...

The basis of a solid-state diode laser is, of course, the diode. Laser diodes can have different emission wavelength—most of them have between 405 nm to 808 nm. The diodes usually have TO3, TO5, TO9, ...

If there’s one lesson to be learned from [Aled Cuda]’s pulsed laser driver, it’s that you can treat the current limits on electronic components as a suggestion if the current duration is measured in ...
