Homogenizing optics for heat treatment applications

Homogenizing Optics

For the efficient treatment of workpieces with fairly large dimensions, Laserline’s optics with integrated beam homogenization offer extraordinary possibilities. The dimensions of homogeneous rectangular and line foci can be precisely adjusted to almost every process so that in applications like hardening, softening or drying, optimal results can be achieved. Furthermore, the homogenization optic can be configured depending on the requirements and boundary conditions of the process, and can be equipped with additional components such as a camera, pyrometer, and the like. Laserline zoom optics allow for dynamical adjustment of focus measurements during the running process.

Homogeneous rectangular foci, typically realizable with aspect ratio 1:1 to 1:18 and edge length of up to 135 mm
Additional components: Pyrometer, CMOS camera

NEW OTX Ultra Wide Spot Solution

Laser Drying of Batteries in a Roll-to-Roll Process by Laserline diode lasers

Large Area Laser Treatment

The new Laserline OTX optics in combination with Laserline diode lasers are designed for the industrial heat treatment of large surfaces. Beam widths of over 1.5 meters can be achieved. The ultra-wide beam technology is successfully used in the roll-to-roll process for the electrode-drying of lithium-ion batteries.
