New laser products from Lumibird: Shrike and Merion MW HP
LUMIBIRD, the laser technology specialist, introduces two new products:
Shrike Laser
Thanks to the experience and expertise of its teams who have been able to leverage the synergy between the organization’s different divisions, Lumibird unveils this new Nd:YAG laser called Shrike, capable of reaching an energy of 130 mJ at 1064 nm, diode pumped, powered by a simple 24 V power supply and integrated into an ultra-compact package.
The Shrike benefits from all the features that have made the Centurion+ and Viron series laser systems so successful: embedded electronics in the laser head and a sealed (IP66), vibration-tested (MIL-STD-810H) structure that adapts to the most extreme environments. Combined with excellent optical specifications, these features make the Shrike an outstanding laser.
This new pulsed Nd:YAG laser demonstrates once again Lumibird's commitment to offer benchmark tools that incorporate the latest innovations to meet the ever evolving needs of its customers. Shrike will be showcased, for the first time, from January 31 to February 2 at Photonics West in San Francisco, CA.
“The Shrike is a good example of the group's ability to incubate innovations and converge technologies.” says Gérard Le Cam, VP Sales of the Photonics Division of the Lumibird group. “It combines high technology, ease of use, performance and robustness. It is the ideal tool to support our customers in all their applications, whatever the conditions of use.”
Key features:
- Up to 130 mJ at 1064 nm in an ultra-compact package
- Electronics embedded in the laser head
- Powered by a 24 VDC power supply or battery
- Highly ruggedized and sealed to adapt to harsh environments
- Easy to integrate
Merion MW HP Laser
Leveraging the technology bricks developed for the Merion MW series combined in an "oscillator-amplifier" configuration, these new lasers Merion MW HP are capable of reaching up to 100 W at 1064 nm diode-pumped. The use of the platform developed for the Q-smart HE series provides great versatility, while minimizing the footprint.
The Merion MW HP encompass all the features that have made Lumibird's other Nd:YAG laser models so successful, such as plug and play harmonic generators, automatic phase-matching, and detachable cables and coolant lines. The optical specifications are not to be outdone with best-in-class beam qualities, both spatial and temporal.
The Merion MW HP will be showcased for the first time, from January 31 to February 2 at Photonics West in San Francisco, CA.
“The Merion MW HP represent a natural extension of the Merion MW series toward higher power”, commented Marc Le Flohic, Lumibird CEO. “Our customers expect us to provide tools that can be easily integrated in their set-up, that operate safely and that are easy to forget. These new lasers fit perfectly into Lumibird’s philosophy of manufacturing state-of-the-art products that become everyday partners for all laboratory and industrial applications.”
Key features:
- High power packaged in a small footprint
- Excellent beam quality
- Field proven reliability
- Plug & play harmonic modules with automatic phase-matching
- Designed to last
- SLM (Single Longitudinal Mode) option for narrow linewidth
