Innovative design enables higher throughput,
precision, flexibility, and reliability
SAN
JOSE, Calif., April 21,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Lumentum Holdings Inc.
("Lumentum"), a market-leading designer and manufacturer of
commercial and industrial laser systems, announced today it has
added a new femtosecond laser system to its portfolio of
high-precision ultrafast industrial lasers—the
FemtoBladeTM. The FemtoBlade laser employs a modular
design that provides increased flexibility and high power at high
repetition rates which will enable faster processing and improved
throughput for micromachining applications, including OLED, PCB,
ceramic and glass cutting, engraving, and solar cell processing.
The FemtoBlade will make its debut at Lumentum's stand #330 at
LASER World of PHOTONICS Munich from April
26 - 29, 2022.
"The FemtoBlade will differentiate Lumentum based on its higher
power, providing greater throughput for our customers," said
Yvette Just, Lumentum Product Line
Manager for Commercial Lasers. "Our new advanced model enables
faster processing time while still providing excellent processing
quality."
Based on its rich history of producing reliable ultrafast
lasers, Lumentum applies the same level of quality to the
FemtoBlade and its ability to provide high pulse-to-pulse stability
and long-term output power stability. Available in UV, IR, and
green wavelengths, the FemtoBlade can be ordered with powers
ranging from 12 W to 50 W of UV, up to 200 W of IR, or up to 100 W
of green. FemtoBlade incorporates previous Lumentum ultrafast laser
features with added benefits, including:
- FlexBurst™ and MegaBurst™ - provides the ability to
split the energy at a higher power of a single pulse (single pulse
mode) into a group of pulses (burst mode)
- AccuTrig™ - provides accurate triggering function for
"on-the-fly" processing capabilities
- SYNC - enables precise timing control for applications
benefitting from the increased productivity achieved with
high-speed galvo or line scanners
About the Product
The FemtoBlade laser's unique modular design allows its
non-linear optics unit to be easily field-replaceable,
significantly reducing down time. In addition, within the chassis
of the FemtoBlade is both the laser head and electronic controller,
eliminating the need for an external umbilical, offering customers
a simpler, one-cable connection. The laser head and controller
incorporate an ultra-stable, passively mode-locked seed oscillator
that relies on Lumentum-proprietary semiconductor saturable
absorber mirror (SESAM®) technology, optimized to reduce
long-term degradation.
Lumentum is now accepting customer orders for the FemtoBlade.
