QCW fiber laser series

IPG Photonics has expanded its QCW fiber laser series with new higher power models, including the new YLS-2000/20000-QCW laser. With a peak power of 20 kW, pulse durations of 0.2-10 ms and a maximum pulse energy of 200 J, the newest offering is IPG’s QCW product family is well suited to drilling and cutting applications within the aerospace industry, where percussion drilling, trepanning and fine cut features are often required.

Available in compact form factor, with very low price per watt, IPG’s QCW fiber lasers are substantially more cost-effective than conventional YAG lasers due to >30% wall-plug efficiency and maintenance-free operation. The QCW lasers are available for requalifying existing lamp-pumped processes.
