| | | |  | | | | | Maximum power and performance in a small footprint laser, with the flexibility of air or water-cooling, are among the key features of the t-series laser technology. By incorporating a standardized, compact footprint in lasers with 60, 80 and 100 watts of power, the firestar t-series provides OEMs and system integrators with today’s best combination of cost and performance, along with an upgrade path for the future. Additionally, the t-series shares common beam exits with Synrad’s firestar v20 and v40 lasers, enabling drop-in replaceability from 20 to 100W. |  | | | The unique t-series resonator design creates a compact laser with excellent beam quality that can be focused to the smallest achievable spot size, delivering the maximum possible power density on a work surface. The result is faster processing speeds, higher resolution and optimized quality for cutting, marking, and engraving applications. | | | With its high performance RF circuitry designed specifically to match its compact resonator, firestar t-series lasers have typical rise times of better than 75 µsec, with outstanding square-wave performance. When combined with an excellent beam profile and mode quality numbers, (M2 of <1.1 ±0.1), the t-series delivers high power, fast pulsing capabilities and optical quality ideally suited for applications where rapid scanning or pulsing of the laser beam is required. | | |  | | | | |  | The latest addition to Synrad’s FH range of marking heads –the FH Series “Flyer” marks at speeds up to 450 characters per second in either static (index) or dynamic (tracking) laser-marking applications. An effective solution for OEMs and Systems Integrators alike, FH Flyer can be paired with any Synrad CO2 laser from 10 to 125W to accomplish a wide range of marking applications. | | | Flyer’s all-digital technology offers users several benefits, including faster, better marks. A USB connection eliminates the need for an interface card, simplifying set-up. Once configured (through the USB connection), the head can then communicate with the computer, server or network via Ethernet interface. In addition to the FH Series’ proven ease of integration, FH Flyer provides additional Input/Output capability, as well as a user-accessible, fully isolated 15V power source for powering external I/O devices. Finally, a gas purge port provides a connection point for a customer-supplied purge gas to lower the risk of contamination of internal optical surfaces and ensure consistent marking performance. | | In addition to meeting the latest regulatory requirements for WEEE/RoHS, Flyer retains the same mounting configuration and footprint of the other FH Series heads. With some minor adjustments, replacement of existing FH heads is quick and easy. Flyer uses Synrad’s complete line of FH Series focusing lenses, so the working distances, field sizes, and mark files of current FH users are fully Flyer compatible. Designed specifically for the operation of Flyer, the latest version of Synrad’s powerful control software, WinMark Pro v5.0, maintains compatibility with existing FH Series heads. | | | |  |  |  |  | | | | |  | | |  | | | | Since its start in 1984, Synrad has delivered more CO2 lasers to industry than any other manufacturer. Founded by Peter Laakmann, who pioneered the RF-excited CO2 laser, Synrad has come to be recognized as a leader in the development of sealed CO2 lasers and electro-optics technologies. Currently, over 80,000 Synrad lasers are in use worldwide, cutting, marking, and drilling a wide variety of materials. | | | | Synrad’s line of sealed CO2 lasers are available with output powers from 10 to 400 watts. Synrad also offers a range of accessories, including galvo marking heads, laser marking software and laser power meters to facilitate the implementation of their laser technology into production processes. | | | | | | | | | |  | | | | | | Cathy McBeth | | | Synrad Inc. | | | 4600 Campus Place, | | | Mukilteo, WA 98275. | | | | Tel: (425) 349-3500 | | | Fax: (425) 349-3667 | | | E-mail: cathym@synrad.com | | | Website: www.synrad.com | | | | |  | | | |
