Fiber laser application

Fiber lasers are used in a wide range of applications, including laser fiber optic communication, laser space telecommunication, industrial shipbuilding, automobile manufacturing, laser engraving, laser marking, laser cutting, printing rollers, metal and non-metal drilling/cutting/welding (brazing, quenching, etc.) Water, cladding and deep welding), military defense and security, medical equipment and equipment, large-scale infrastructure, as a pump source for other lasers, etc.

1), Marking application:

Pulsed fiber lasers are the easiest and most flexible way to use without water cooling due to their excellent beam quality, reliability, the longest maintenance-free time, the highest overall electro-optical conversion efficiency, pulse repetition frequency, the smallest volume, and the lowest operation. The cost makes it the only option for high-speed, high-precision laser marking.

2), Material handling

The material treatment of fiber lasers is based on a heat treatment process in which the parts of the material that absorb the laser energy are heated. Laser light energy with a wavelength of about 1um is easily absorbed by metals, plastics and ceramic materials.

3), Material bending

Fiber laser forming or bending is a technique used to alter the curvature of metal sheets or hard ceramics. Concentrated heating and rapid self-cooling lead to plastic deformation in the laser-heated area, permanently changing the curvature of the target workpiece. The study found that microbending with laser processing is far more precise than other methods, and at the same time, it is an ideal method in microelectronics manufacturing.

4) Laser cutting

As the power of fiber lasers continues to rise, fiber lasers can be applied on a large scale in industrial cutting. For example: micro-cutting stainless steel arterial tubes with a fast chopping continuous fiber laser. Due to its high beam quality, fiber lasers can achieve very small focusing diameters and the resulting small kerf widths are setting new standards in the medical device industry.
