With a ruggedized, compact design, reliable pointing stability, and repeatable beam characteristics from laser to laser, Dart delivers high quality picosecond laser cutting and drilling even in tough industrial environments.
04 June 2021
Coherent's picosecond laser system provides a turnkey solution for permanent, high contrast, contamination-free sub-surface UDI marking of stainless steel devices.
07 May 2021
Coherent's new solution for 3D marking meets the increased need to mark non-flat surfaces, such as curved, inclined, recessed, and stepped surfaces as well as free-form objects.
