LINOS Variable Magnification Beam Expanders
LINOS®Variable Beam Expanders are beam forming optics for laser material processing applications. They vary diameter and divergence of laser beams and optimize focus diameter, position and beam propagation.
LINOS Variable Beam Expanders- Qioptiq offers standard versions of manual and motorized variable beam expanders made of fused silica and/or optical glass. They can be implemented in reverse as beam reducers and are optimally used with LINOS F-Theta Ronar Lenses. Available in manual and motorized versions.
LINOS Beam Expanders vary the diameter and the divergence of a laser beam and allow optimization of focus diameter, focus position and beam propagation. All LINOS beam expanders can also be implemented in reverse mode as beam reducers.
They are used for beam forming in laser material processing applications and are optimally employed in conjunction withLINOS F-Theta Ronar lensesfor applications including:
- Laser structuring of foils
- Laser scribing of ceramic substrates
- Cutting of solar cells
- Micro drilling of sheet metal
- Marking of diverse materials with encodings
