Ophir
Ophir, part of MKS Instruments, will be showing its Beam Squared M2 laser beam propagation system
Ophir
Ophir will display its BeamSquared device, an M2 laser beam propagation system that measures the quality of the beam to optimise performance. A compact, portable device, it provides automated measurements of the propagation characteristics of CW and pulsed lasers in less than one minute.
Users can run the system in automated mode from UV to NIR, and telecom wavelengths, and in manual mode for terahertz and CO2 laser beams. BeamSquared is designed for continuous use applications, from scientific research to rapid prototyping to fabrication and machining.
