Q-switched flashlamp pumped Nd:YAG lasers,
NS-100 … NS-500
NS-100 … NS-500 – 1064 nm, 100 mJ -500 mJ, 10 Hz – 20Hz
Low energy lasers build up on oscillator only.
Rod diameter from 4 mm to 8 mm. Pulse energy from 100 mJ to 500 mJ
NS-100 … NS-500 embody the simplest possible design of flashlamp pumped Q-switched Nd:YAG lasers. One flashlamp, one laser rod, linear resonator, active Q-switching is a non-aging classics. Due different Nd:YAG rod sizes maximal output energy varies from 100mJ to 500mJ per pulse.
Rigid laser head machined from the single piece of aluminium and spring-free design of mirror holders make NS-series a perfect choice for applications where the reliability is important.
NS-series lasers are equipped both with stand-alone UI (remote control with 7” graphical display and touch panel) and RS-485 machine interface. That allows both laboratory usage and integration into the customer’s systems. By the same reasons power supply and cooling system units are performed in 19” rack format.
Multimode, near flat-top beam profile.
