Laser Components develops polychromatic beam splitters especially for high-power lasers in industrial material processing. These optical components make it possible to direct three or more wavelengths with a single unit. Such components are in demand today in Industry 4.0, where complex sensor systems monitor and control digitized processes.
The optics manufacturer develops the mirrors individually according to customer requirements. For example, it is often necessary to transmit the wavelengths used by the cameras in the infrared or visible range. In addition, other wavelengths can be taken into account: For example, many laser processing systems use pilot lasers (650 nanometers) or OCT (optical coherence tomography) systems for depth measurement (950 nanometers). Of course, even with these complex beam steering requirements, the coating designs of the optics are capable of withstanding the high powers of an industrial laser (between 1030 and 1080 nanometers) over the long term.
