Scansonic, a producer of laser optics for welding, brazing and hardening, is showcasing two new innvovations in laser hardening at the Laser World of Photonics this year: its RLH-A laser processing optics and a new laser hardening process called CoHard.
Lasers for hardening steel surfaces can be used for high-precision hardening of the smallest structures. The new Scansonic RLH-A Rel. III laser optics offer increased precision compared to the earlier version.
Hamamatsu Photonics has developed a laser-diode-pumped high-energy pulsed laser system that delivers an output of 117J – the world’s highest among laser-diode-pumped lasers, according to the firm.
