Coherent Offers Compact 30W CO2 OEM Laser
Coherent, Inc. offers a low-power CO2
laser that features excellent beam quality and a small footprint. Called the
GEM-30ª, this OEM laser provides more than 30W of output power at 10.55- to
10.63-µm with a greater than 98% TEM00 spatial mode and M2<1.2 beam quality. It
is ideal for marking, engraving and desktop manufacturing.
The GEM-30 was built using the same laser cavity as its predecessor, the GEM-25, but is based on a platform where the power supply RF driver is integrated into the same housing as the laser head. This results in a compact package that can operate in the most demanding environments. The GEM-30 provides 20% higher power than its predecessor and comes in a single, compact package, providing ease of integration and enabling desktop-sized, high-throughput marking and engraving systems.
"The advantages of the GEM-30 are numerous. You get the agility and ease of integration that comes with a compact, integrated platform, as well as the reliability and dependability that comes with using a field-proven technology," said Ron Straayer, product manager at Coherent. "Plus, you get a laser with higher power levels at a lower price point."
Available in both air- and liquid-cooled models, the GEM-30 measures just 357 mm x 92.46 mm x 139.6 mm (14.06" x 3.64" x 5.49") for the air-cooled version; 357 mm x 92.46 mm x 92.79 mm (14.06" x 3.64" x 3.65") for the liquid-cooled version. The GEM-30 has a rise time of less than 60 µsec. It runs on 48 VDC (12 amps) and has a RJ-45 Ethernet connector. Mounting brackets are also available.
