Description
Introducing the LightWAVE® Industrial CO2 Lasers, a pinnacle of precision and efficiency in laser technology. Whether you are looking for robust performance or exceptional reliability, these lasers are designed to meet the demanding needs of modern industrial applications. With a focus on delivering consistent power and stability, the LightWAVE® series ensures that each operation is executed with the highest level of accuracy.
The LightWAVE® lasers are engineered with a metal sealed laser cavity, ensuring longevity and reduced maintenance. This design is complemented by an integrated red beam for precise alignment, allowing for seamless operation in various industrial settings. The lasers' circular polarization and internal collimation further enhance the beam quality, ensuring optimal performance across a wide range of tasks.
Manufactured in the USA, the LightWAVE® series boasts overbuilt electronics and a common footprint, making it a reliable choice for OEMs and integrators. These lasers are liquid-cooled and RF-excited, providing a wide operating power range with exceptional power stability. Despite their powerful capabilities, they maintain a lightweight profile, weighing under 50 lbs, which facilitates easy integration into existing systems.
Safety and compliance are paramount, and while the laser is a component of a larger system, it is the responsibility of the OEM to ensure all necessary safety features are implemented. Users are advised to consult with CDRH for safety requirements and to operate the laser only with proper safety training.
