OP6744 Beam Combiner

Beam Combiner Description

The Beam Combiner has been developed to merge two laser beams into a single beam, which is common in various industrial laser applications. It typically combines a processing laser with a wavelength used for imaging or display into a single beam directed towards the working position. The beam combiner allows for certain wavelengths to be transmitted and others to be reflected, depending on specific design requirements that are often custom. Our beam combiners are designed to transmit the laser beam at a wavelength of 1064 nm with an incident angle of 45 degrees, while reflecting the wavelength of 650 nm (visible light) at a 90-degree angle to calibrate the 1064 nm laser beam.

Beam Combiner Applications

-Laser welding and cutting:

Beam combiners are used to combine multiple laser wavelengths for precision cutting or welding in industries such as the automotive industry, aerospace, and electronics.

-Laser marking and engraving:

In laser marking and engraving systems, lasers with different wavelengths are combined to improve the precision and speed of engraving.

-Laser imaging and scanning:

In medical and scientific fields, beam combiners integrate lasers for imaging systems to enhance the quality and resolution of scans or diagnostic images.

Beam Combiner FAQs

Q1. What is a beam combiner?

A beam combiner is an optical device that merges multiple laser beams with different wavelengths into a single beam. It typically transmits certain wavelengths while reflecting others, based on specific design and application requirements.

Q2. What is a beam combiner used for?

Beam combiners are employed to combine two or more laser beams into a single beam, optimising the laser system for applications such as laser cutting, welding, imaging, and spectroscopy, while ensuring precise control of wavelength and laser power.

Q3. How does a beam combiner work?

A beam combiner operates using optical coatings that transmit certain wavelengths and reflect others. The incident angle and coatings on the surfaces are carefully designed to control which light passes through and which is reflected, allowing for precise beam merging.
