COMMERCIAL LASERS Industrial Diode Laser (IDL) System IDL Series Key Features Round, top-hat beam profile for uniform power distribution Warranted for full rated power in either pulsed or continuous wave (CW) operation Air-cooled Fiber delivery Built-in red pointing laser diode Available 19" rack mount power supply configuration Applications Plastic welding Selective soldering Heat treatment Brazing Micro bending Hair removal Tissue welding The JDSU IDL Series provides up to 100 watts of multi-mode laser output by combining highly reliable, single-emitter laser diodes, fused fiber delivery, and a red pointing diode laser with a heat sink, power supply, and control electronics in one complete package. Long life expectancy is a primary benefit of the IDL series. These lasers incorporate multiple single-emitter diodes. Unlike bar diodes, single-emitter diodes operate relatively stress-free during pulsed operation and can be pulsed on and off without affecting lifetime. This is critical in many applications such as soldering and plastic welding. Also due to its all-in-glass design, contamination cannot accumulate inside the IDL system. The IDL Series is supplied with a 600 µm, 0.22 NA delivery fiber terminated with an SMA905 connector. An optional focusing termination provides a round, tophat beam profile that allows for uniform heat distribution at the work piece. The detachable termination focuses to a 600 µm spot diameter at a working distance of 85 mm. Designed for easy operation and installation, the IDL Series uses internal fans for cooling, features fiber delivery, and requires only standard wall-plug power. The laser can be monitored and controlled by customer-supplied interface electronics via a 40-pin analog connector or by RS232 computer control.
