Request InfoMKS Ophir, Light & MeasurementSPIE Photonics West 2018 Booth: 507Ophir® BeamWatch® AM is the industry's first non-contact laser beam monitoring system for additive manufacturing. It’s a lightweight, compact system for real-time measurement of focal shift during laser startup of powder bed fusion manufacturing processes. Measures key beam size, position, and quality parameters, including focus spot size and beam caustic. Allows users to more easily determine when beam is aligned and in focus, providing more consistent metallurgy. Displays as tabular, 2D, 3D.See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPromoted Content January 2024 IssueThe Stabilaser 1542eThe design of the acetylene-stabilized laser maintains the short-term linewidth of a high-end fiber laser and adds excellent long-term stability and high accuracy from a molecular transition of...Promoted Content January 2024 IssueHigh Speed Polarization ImagingIncrease your speed and enjoy quantified data while examining collagen samples, imaging myelin, viewing microscopic defects in diamond and analyzing stress in glass, film, polymers, and liquid...Promoted Content September 2022 IssueHighly Accurate Image Quality TestThe newly developed ImageMaster® HR 2 from TRIOPTICS stands for highest accuracy and reproducibility in image quality testing.
