IPG nanosecond fiber laser for cutting welding and drilling
The YLS series lasers were developed for demanding cutting applications. Available in the smallest form factor on the market, these lasers can be easily integrated into cutting machines. The laser is packaged in a hermetically sealed cabinet containing an internal dryer, allowing it to be used in the harshest production environments.
YLS-CUT and YLS-U incorporate the latest improvements in IPG technology in the design of diode modules, fiber optic modules, digital power supplies and digital control electronics, resulting in unparalleled reliability and improved control flexibility, stability and accuracy . The new control system allows for integrated control of the laser and process subsystems.
