Production quality has always been a hot topic in laser powder bed fusion. At Formnext, you get the chance to discover three laser measurement solutions in AM that help you succeed:

Stand-alone laser power measurement – The Ophir® Ariel device measures up to 8KW even in space constraint applications. The wireless device is splash water & dust resistant and requires no cooling. It has long battery life, a reading time of only 3s and covers a wide range of wavelengths.

Integrated beam analysis and power measurement – The Ophir BeamPeek^TM solution analyzes laser beams fast and accurate. The compact system provides simultaneous beam profiling, focal spot analysis, and power measurement in just 3s! A replaceable passive cooling tray eliminates downtime between measurements.

Non-contact beam profiling and caustic measurement – The Ophir BeamWatch® AM ascertains a variety of beam parameters such as position, focus size, caustic, astigmatism and Rayleigh length. The device immediately registers focus shift and quickly detects whether the beam is correctly aligned and focused.
