Universal Laser Systems maximaliseert de materiaalcompatibiliteit in het nieuwe ULTRA 9-platform

Nieuw laserplatform maakt geavanceerde materiaalbewerking mogelijk

SCOTTTSDALE, Ariz.-(BUSINESS WIRE)- Met het toenemende gebruik van geavanceerde materialen in industriële toepassingen, van lucht- en ruimtevaart tot medische apparatuur, ontstaat er een groeiende behoefte aan innovatie in de technologie voor materiaalomzetting. Ontwikkelingen in de laserbewerking zijn erop gericht om de beperkingen van bestaande technologie te overwinnen en de grenzen te verleggen van de manier waarop materialen kunnen worden gebruikt. Universal Laser Systems heeft hiervoor een platform met ongekende mogelijkheden voor materiaalverwerking ontwikkeld.

Het nieuwe ULTRA 9 Platform is ontworpen om lasersnijden, laser ablatie en laser oppervlakte modificatie uit te voeren. Wanneer geconfigureerd met de gepatenteerde MultiWave Hybrid™-technologie, kan het de laserenergie van maximaal drie golflengtes – 9,3 µm (CO2), 10,6 µm (CO2) en 1,06 µm (vezels) – combineren door elke spectrale component van de straal onafhankelijk te besturen.

The new ULTRA 9 Platform is designed to perform laser cutting, laser ablation, and laser surface modification. When configured with patented MultiWave Hybrid™ technology, it can combine the laser energy of up to three wavelengths – 9.3 µm (CO2), 10.6 µm (CO2), and 1.06 µm (fiber) – by independently controlling each spectral component of the beam. The user is able to select the ideal wavelength or combination of wavelengths based on the material, allowing for maximum process flexibility.

MultiWave™ is just one of the features that makes the ULTRA 9 a comprehensive processing solution. Advanced functionality such as high-accuracy beam positioning and auto-focus, collision detection, and smart path planning, make it ideal for applications in manufacturing, research and development, academic research, and prototyping. Due to its versatility, the platform is effective for the broadest possible range of materials, including films, industrial fabrics, engineering plastics, laminating adhesives, foams, and composites from global manufacturers such as 3M, DuPont, Henkel, Rogers, SABIC, and Saint-Gobain.
