A Shortcut for Calculating Laser Power Density

This post was originally posted in 2012.  It is still very popular, so I wanted to share it here in case you get some value from it. Here’s a laser power density calculator, if that’s what you wanted. Laser engineers and technicians are often required to calculate a laser’s power density to determine whether a beam…

The Importance of CO2 Laser Optimization

Every laser user, along with their superiors, wants the laser system to operate optimally. When these systems aren’t optimized, time and money is lost through lower cut speeds, increased dross on the edges of the cuts, and more frequent down-time due to maintenance. Contact us

Must You Measure Industrial Laser Performance?

With all the advancements in laser technology, lasers have become higher quality and more consistent.

Laser manufacturers test and measure their lasers during development, to make sure you, the laser end user, get the highest quality laser system.

With all this in mind then, do you really have to measure your laser system?

How to Keep Your Industrial Laser Process Running Smoothly

Lasers are made of matter – of stuff.

And anything made of matter will degrade with time.

So if the laser degradation and eventual failure is inevitable, what can be done?

Don’t Come to Our LASER World of PHOTONICS Booth Unless…

Going to Munich for LASER World of PHOTONICS 2015?

We’ll be showing several new products in Munich, not to mention quite a few of our classics.

But…

You’re going to be busy. You can’t (and shouldn’t) go to every booth. So I’m going to very clear. Our booth is not for everyone. However,

Worried about High Power (10 kW) Laser Backscatter?

With high power lasers, there’s always a safety concern for equipment and people nearby.

(Of course, I’m not qualified to give a detailed analysis of what needs to be taken into account for laser safety. For that, you should consult a laser safety officer.)

I want to specifically ask whether there’s an issue of laser light reflecting off power measuring equipment.
