Nufern Unveils Line of Fiber Laser Modules
Posted on: Monday, 24 January 2005, 12:00 CST
EAST GRANBY, Conn., Jan. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Nufern, the largest independent manufacturer of fiber laser and amplifier modules and specialty optical fibers, announced today a new product line of CW (continuous wave) fiber laser modules. These modules are designed as highly reliable, robust sources that can be readily integrated into OEM laser applications for industrial and manufacturing environments. All modules contain Nufern's proprietary and proven high-power optical fibers.
The new line of standard fiber laser modules covers three power ranges with ~1 micron output:
* 2 - 15 Watts
* 15 - 25 Watts
* 25 - 50 Watts
Built with a compact, monolithic fiber design, Nufern's modules are virtually maintenance-free and eliminate the need for optical or mechanical re-alignment, yet they still provide near-perfect diffraction-limited beam quality. These modules are provided with any standard or custom-designed pump coupler or connector.
"Fiber lasers have already begun to replace conventional lasers in many applications. They offer efficient, optical performance and reliability. The rate of adoption has caught the attention of most laser manufacturers and many laser integrators," said Dr. Andrew Held, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Nufern. "Nufern has always offered laser manufacturers and integrators the essential fiber components to build their own fiber lasers. Offering these modules with a higher level of integration responds to our customers who wish to leave the unfamiliar fiber handling to us, thus reducing their time to market."
By offering "plug-and-play" fiber laser modules, Nufern provides expertise in fiber handling and leaves the option of laser diode integration and laser packaging to the manufacturers and integrators. This flexible approach saves time and cost.
