Request InfoNanotec Electronic GmbH & Co. KGThe PD2-C-IP brushless direct current (DC) servo motor from Nanotec Electronic GmbH & Co. KG features an integrated controller and 42-mm flange size in protection class IP65. It was developed for use in harsh environmental conditions. The PD2-C-IP is available as a brushless DC motor, with an operating voltage of 12 to 48 V and a rated power of 105 W, and as a stepper motor, with a nominal torque of up to 0.5 nm. Due to the field-oriented control based on an integrated encoder, both motors are controlled in the same way and differ only in their working point. Each motor is...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 3/30/2021Servo MotorsThe APBA80 series of 1-kW servo motors from Nanotec Electronic GmbH & Co.

Enter Class 1 laser products — lasers that are so safe that the user doesn’t require specific laser safety training or protective eyewear. Some precautions still exist, though.When purchasing an industrial laser system, the astute buyer will look for a Class 1 laser product — a system where the laser beam hazard is completely enclosed and there is no potential laser...Photonics HandbookFluorescence Lifetime Imaging: Choosing the Best Approach: Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), which measures the spatial distribution of the fluorescence decay, can be achieved either in the time or in the frequency domain. Each approach exhibits advantages and disadvantages, depending on the type of light detector and acquisition method employed.The term fluorescence is often applied as a synonym for photoluminescence, although luminescence actually covers fluorescence and phosphorescence. Both of these terms describe the process of...Photonics HandbookIndustrial Lasers: An Introduction to Process Qualification: The step from successfully demonstrating a new laser process on a limited number of samples under laboratory conditions, to scaling that process up for high-volume industrial use is a big one. In particular, it’s necessary to determine how variations in process parameters affect end results, so that acceptable process input and operating ranges can be determined.Materials processing with lasers is actually a broad term for a diverse range of applications. The major categories of these uses, and the lasers that service them, are summarized Table 1.
