Jenoptik to Presented a New Product Line at Photonics West JENOPTIK Laser GmbH
In order to extend its product range in the field of macro material processing, Jenoptik has developed the first product within the range of kilowatt fiber lasers – the laser source JenLas® fiber cw 1000. This highly brilliant single-mode high-power fiber laser system features high performance stability and a long life time of the laser source. Because of that constantly high productivity is achieved in the respective applications at a high processing speed. Compared to other laser sources such as the CO2 lasers, fiber lasers are more energy-efficient and thus more cost-effective.
The new system of Jenoptik is a cw laser with an output power of 1,000 Watts. “By offering the Jenoptik fiber lasers in conjunction with the added value depth of the Lasers & Material Processing division we are confident to provide our customers with optimal support for successful applications”, says Dr. Thomas Fehn, Executive Vice President of the Jenoptik Lasers & Material Processing division. “Jenoptik’s know-how in the fields of diode lasers, the fiber laser pump sources, the laser sources and processing optics creates a unique environment for the generation of customer value. Our in-depth knowledge on all of those technological stages and the additional experience with the application enables our customers to flexibly integrate the Jenoptik fiber lasers into their respective systems. We provide our customers with additional support through our worldwide service network“, adds Thomas Fehn.
The fiber laser has been optimized for use in the laser processing systems for example for the industrial applications such as metal cutting and metal welding. The OEM laser source is offered in a compact 19 inch housing, including the corresponding operating software. Operational safety is ensured by a safety lock made of certified components. The laser comes with several user interfaces such as RS232, EtherCAT and USB port. In addition, a parallel customer-specific interface can be used.
The pump diodes needed for the production of the JenLas® fiber cw 1000 fiber laser system are procured internally from the manufacturing plant in Berlin, followed by further processing in Jena. In order to satisfy the increased customers’ demand and to respond to the market developments the plant in Berlin is currently being enlarged.
