Request InfoQioptiqThe LINOS F-Theta-Ronar 265-mm lens from Qioptiq features a wavelength of 1900 to 2000 nm. The small, fused silica lens for scanning areas up to 177 × 177 mm² at a detailed wavelength is ideal for high-power applications requiring reduced thermal focus shift, including melting processes such as polymer welding, clear plastic welding and 3D structuring/selective laser etching of glass and silicon. Featuring a shorter focal length compared to existing F-Theta-Ronar scan lenses, the 265-mm lens for 1900 to 2000 nm results in smaller overall size. It also delivers a large...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra January 2023 Issue3D OEM Laser ProfilerThe VC picoSmart 3D OEM laser profiler from Vision Components GmbH features integrated processors for 3D profile data analysis and image processing tasks.
