Explorer® One™ Compact UV and Green Lasers
Explorer® One™ Compact UV and Green Lasers
Overview
The Explorer® One™ is the most compact series of UV and green diode pumped solid state (DPSS) q-switch lasers in its class. The It’s in the Box™ design incorporates features such as the very compact air cooled design, short pulse width, high peak power and a feature rich software into one single package to satisfy customer needs with benefits such as ease-of-use and handling, high process quality and short time-to-market in cost sensitive tools.
Three Industrial Platforms
The Explorer One laser models are available on three platforms. The standard platform provides up to 800 mW and 355 nm, 2 W at 532 nm. High energy models are available with pulse energies exceeding 120 µJ at 349 nm, 80 µJ at 355 nm and 200 µJ at 532 nm. The extended power platform, Explorer One XP, is available with power exceeding 2 W at 355 nm and 5 W at 532 nm. The high power platform, the Explorer One HP, is available with a power exceeding 6 W at 355 nm.
High Performance and Reliability in a Compact Size
The Explorer One Family consists of rugged and durable industrial laser designed for longevity and long-term stability in 24/7 applications. Exceptional performance including short pulse width for minimum heat affected zone, unmatched pulse-to-pulse stability and superior beam quality (M2 typically
Advanced Software Controls
Versatility and flexibility are realized by integrating advanced and value-added hardware and software elements such as E-Pulse™ pulse energy control, burst mode, on-demand auto-calibration and single pulse energy measurements up to 500 kHz. The new E-Track™ dynamic pulse energy control feature actively measures and controls the laser for continual energy and power stabilization even under rapidly changing operating set points or environments. E-Track enables “on-the-fly” adjustments and fast gating for precision micromachining applications such as scribing marking, and drilling of tiny features.
In addition the Explorer One laser’s output power is adjustable to optimize the laser performance to the application needs. The system can be operated using TTL and analog control signals. Real-time pulse energy values are available on the integrated analog port.
