FIBER LASERS | 1. Fiber lasers are flexible, adaptable, and versatile pieces of machinery that can be used for a multitude of fiber laser applications. 2. Fiber lasers find applications where the absorption by samples are predominantly in the IR region. This includes a multitude of products that are being used regularly like: polycarbonate and a variety of plastics, ceramic, metals like: steel, iron, aluminum, brass, bronze and a few alloys. 3. IR fiber lasers are generally preferred for fast processing as well as deep engraving applications where time is an an important factor to consider. 4. Fiber lasers are generally used for general: Marking, Cleaning, Annealing, surface treatment, drilling, welding, ablation, additive manufacturing, cutting, and applications. |
GREEN LASERS | 1. A visible laser (Green) has its advantages in processing materials that have a higher absorptance in the visible then in the IR region. 2. Some metals, such as copper and gold, have an absorbance several times higher in the green region than at the fundamental IR wavelength. 3. Copper, in particular, is widely used in electronics and hence the green laser finds its applications predominantly in the electronics and semiconductor industry. 4. Green lasers meet the increased demand on high-quality and high-efficiency transparent material processing (Glass processing). 5. Multiple laser-processing techniques such as laser drilling, cutting, scribing, and marking are widely applied to versatile application areas. Materials like: Copper, gold, stainless steel, ceramic, epoxy resin, plastics, Teflon, glass, and several other composites can be processed 6. From soda lime to quartz glass, various transparent materials can be machined selectively via green lasers. |
