New high power fiber laser DP50F

25.06.2009

State-of-the-art components for excellent beam quality and compactness at the same time, this was the main focus for the development of the new laser DP50F.

The pulsed fiber laser with its high power reserves expands the existing laser series in the upper power range, thereby reducing the cycle times significantly. Because of the small dimensions of the laser head this system is ideally suited to be integrated into production lines.

 

 

New UV Laser DP2UV

15.05.2009

With the innovative diode laser DP2UV FOBA expands its product portfolio into the ultra violet range. The novel resonator design guarantees an efficient laser power in the medium range of 2 W with a wavelength of 355 nm.

The typical pulse duration of 20 ns at a beam diameter of 20 µm now allows „cold marking“ predominantly by photochemical reactions. High quality markings with reduced material damage are the highlights e.g. in marking of flame protected plastics and glass.

fiberhome + fiber laser – the perfect team!

26.01.2006

It’s even better than our fiber laser – our fiber laser plus fiberhome. This complete systems offers as standard a motorised Z-axis, lighting, and an integrated camera which keeps the operator permanently informed about the current status inside the cabin. As an option, a servo-motorised axis is available which makes it possible to mark cylindrical or ring-shaped parts fully automatically. This compact system is ideally suited for small to medium quantities and can be used in a wide range of fields in industry. What’s more, the price is also very attractive – in the past a single laser would have cost more!

 

 

Two new fiber lasers added to FOBA’s product range

01.05.2005

The two DP10F and DP20F systems have recently been added to the range of FOBA products.
These new types of pulsed fiber lasers achieve unprecedented efficiency and compactness. The small dimensions of the laser head, deflector unit and supply unit make integration much easier in, for example, small machines. The high level of pulse-to-pulse stability during material processing is an additional advantage.
