Laser modules are tough and easy to replace

Paul Boughton

Constructed to withstand harsh conditions and satisfy rigorous industrial demands, Photonic Products' tough new industrial laser modules are encapsulated in a hard-coat anodised case with a scratch-resistant sapphire window to protect the lens and offer rugged, durable performance at an extremely economical price.

They are designed and built for ease of use in tough industrial environments: any time the laser needs to be changed, the industrial connectors (either 2.5mm DC jack or industrial screw-on) make installation and replacement simple, and their compact size allows for easy and efficient integration into existing production systems.

Photonic Products' range of industrial laser diode modules is designed for heavy-duty industrial manufacturing processes such as micro-machining, marking, cutting, drilling, welding, forming, soldering and many other industrial laser uses where superior quality, durability and performance are critical.

The industrial laser modules are available in a variety of wavelengths from 635-830nm with either a standard elliptical output beam or line, or cross-generating optics. Line-generating optics generate a 45, 60 or 90-degree full-fan angle line; cross-generating optics generate an accurate 70-degree full angle cross with Gaussian intensity, both of which offer straight-line precision without bowing. The beam is aligned to <0.25degree to the mechanical axis of the laser.

With optical output powers from 0.95-30mW, operating voltage of 5V DC regulated +/-10 per cent and operating temperature from -10 to +50 degrees C, the modules are also static-, surge- and reverse polarity-protected and Rohs-compliant.
