Industry-Leading Energy Efficiency Reduces Cost of Ownership and Environmental Impacts
Six new Diode Laser Solutions (DLS-ECO) from
The Next Generation of High-Power Diode Lasers Has Arrived
These new diode laser sources range in output power from 3.5 to 40 kW with industry-leading wall plug energy efficiencies of over 52%. They join IPG’s well-established YLS-ECO series of lasers which incorporate the most reliable laser diodes from IPG operating at the highest efficiencies.
A New ‘Cold Furnace’ Paradigm for Drying Applications
A diode heater operates cold, wasting no energy warming insulating walls or the factory floor. The 100% solid state laser directs energy as laser light onto the media being processed. Between batches the diode heater is off, not idling, so no energy is consumed when it is not needed.
Laser light dries below the surface providing a more efficient process than is possible in a thermal convection oven, meaning a DLS-ECO solution is up to 4X smaller and up to 4X faster. The open and cold environment is inviting to thermal metrology enabling tighter process control benefitting from instantaneous, on-the-fly temperature adjustments. The DLS-ECO is best suited to dry industrial coatings such as battery slurries, paint or powder coatings, and are employed when extremely tight process control is needed, such as semiconductor wafer heating.
High Efficiency Heating for Reduced Energy Consumption and CO2 Emissions
“IPG is committed to meeting sustainability targets, and for customers with traditional fossil-fueled furnaces, these new diode laser heating solutions enable them to quickly and easily switch to a much more efficient and environmentally friendly process,” said
These new Diode Laser Solutions will be unveiled at Photonics West 2023 in
