Rofin DQ 010 Q-Switched Laser Outputs 1kW Of Power
Rofin has added the DQ 010 to its range of high power DQ Q-switched solid-state lasers. The high-performance lasers of the DQ series are suitable for surface applications such as ablation, cleaning and insulation, with other applications currently in development. The 1kW output power and increased pulse peak performance of the DQ 010, which are 1,000 times higher than CW powers, reduce cycle times and ultimately operating expenses. The DQ 010 can be integrated with beam switches or power-splitter modules, allowing the use of one beam source in several different production lines. This reduces initial investment cost, while the increased efficiency of the beam source lowers the ongoing running costs. The high average power makes it an efficient tool for selective material removal. It is ideal for solar-panel ablation, mould cleaning, material coating removal and surface-treatment of flat screens. The DQ series can offer power ranges of 500, 800 and 1kW. The ablation of the aluminium-sil...
