Overview
Photonics Industries’ DC Series Nd:YLF Nanosecond Lasers combine ideal mJ pulse energy levels with high kHz repetition rates (single shot to 10 kHz), while maintaining short pulse widths, all within a compact, air-cooled form factor.
Photonics Industries’ DC Series Nd:YLF nanosecond lasers are the result of over 30 years of innovation and refinement, starting with the very first laser we built. This groundbreaking product laid the foundation for our patented intracavity harmonic generation technology, which revolutionized the industry with superior harmonic conversion efficiency, exceptional beam quality, and unparalleled beam pointing stability in a compact, simple design.
Delivering pulse energies up to 1.5 mJ, repetition rates from single shot to 10 kHz, and low pulse widths, all in a lightweight, air-cooled form factor, the DC Series has been perfected to meet the most demanding industrial applications. Its reliability and long-term stability make it a trusted tool for precision manufacturing, embodying our legacy of pioneering laser technology.
