Profile: Powerlase Ltd. specializes in providing diode-pumped and solid-state (DPSS) lasers. Our products include DPSS infra-red, DPSS SP infra-red and DPSS green. The Starlase AO2 is an acousto-optically switched, diode pumped Nd:YAG laser system with a PLC control interface. High average powers are produced, at the fundamental frequency of operation, via a modular cavity design based around a standard gain module configuration. Versatile remote system operation, for machine control and integration, is enabled via the RS232 interface. Beam output stability and near service-free reliability is enhanced by a fully machined and sealed robust mounting platform and enclosure that can be mounted kinematically. External facility requirements are limited to an electrical supply and coolant water.
