Laser Research makes available CO2 optics for steel cutting lasers

A full line of CO2 laser optics featuring lenses and mirrors that are direct OEM replacements for popular high power steel cutting lasers is available from Laser Research Optics, Providence, R.I.

Laser Research high power CO2 Optics for multi-kilowatt cutting lasers are optimized for 10.6 micron and offered in 1.5 to 2.5 inch dia. sizes. Featuring varying focal lengths from 3.5 to 12 inches, the lenses are A/R coated and exhibit < 0.2% total absorption, while the silicon mirrors and reflectors provide > 99.5 to 99.7% avg. reflectance at 10.6 micron and 45 degrees AOI.

Suitable for Amada, Bystronic, Cincinnati, Mazak, Mitsubishi, Prima, Strippit and TRUMPF lasers, Laser Research high power CO2 optics include lenses in plano-convex and meniscus configurations, molybdenum mirrors for dirty environments, silicon mirrors, silicon with enhanced copper, silver, or DBMR dual band polarization controller reflectance coatings, and ZnSe output couplers.
