ProPhotonix Compact Laser Modules are designed for applications where space constraint is a key consideration. These economical laser modules offer a highly reliable solution ideally suited for a wide range of applications, including medical and industrial alignment, barcode scanning, targeting, and 3D measurement. This blog post will provide a detailed overview of the product, its features and benefits, and key applications.

Key Features:

  • Compact Design (Ø8mm)
  • Excellent Boresighting
  • High Reliability

Superior Boresighting (<0.5˚) and TTL Modulation features

The Compact Laser Module offers superior boresighting (<0.5˚) delivering enhanced alignment accuracy for OEMs. An added benefit of the improved boresighting is that it further eases installation into OEM applications.

A highly reliable laser module, measuring just 8mm in diameter, (the elliptical beam options are 8mm in diameter; line and cross generating lasers are 9mm in diameter).

The Compact Laser Modules are a complete laser solution and operate at a low current requirement meaning they can be battery operated via a handheld device.

The lasers are manufactured at ProPhotonix’ ISO certified laser facility with a wide range of options such as wavelength, output power, and package types available.  In addition, a recent upgrade of the Compact Laser Modules now offers CW/TTL modulation options.

Compact Laser Module optical options

  • Elliptical beam, line, and cross generating optics
  • Wavelengths: 520nm, 635nm, and 650nm
  • Optical output powers of 0.9mW and 4mW

As a versatile laser module, the Compact Laser Modules are available with optical output power options of 0.9 or 4mW as standard. An exceptionally durable laser module solution for OEM use where space is limited. Additional options available include a collimated or focused elliptical spot output, line or cross optics at any of 520, 635 or 650nm.

Features and Benefits of the Compact Laser Module:

 

Features: Benefits:
Ø 8mm: Ideally suited where space is a key consideration.
Excellent Bore-Sighting <0.5°: Improved accuracy and ease of installation.
High Reliability: Repeatable results and maximum system uptime.
Range of Wavelengths: Laser configured to your applications needs.
Elliptical Beam, Line & Cross Generating Optics Available: Output can be configured for a range of application needs.
Hard Anodised Aluminium Housing Option: Electrical Isolation and durability.
TTL Modulation Options: Strobing option now available to suit application requirements.

Key Applications

  • Industrial and Medical Alignment
  • Bar Code scanning
  • Targeting
  • Light Scattering/Smoke Detectors
  • 3D Measurement

The highly reliable Compact Laser Modules are well suited for a wide range of applications including barcode scanning, targeting, medical and industrial alignment, and 3D measurement. TTL Modulation allows for lasers to be synchronized with cameras ideal for 3D scanning applications.

Green Laser Diodes Key Features

  • Wavelengths [nanometres (“nm”)]: 515nm, 520nm
  • Output Power [milliwatt (“mW”)]: 10mW – 100mW (or 140mW in pulsed mode)
  • Highly Reliable
  • Package [millimetre (“mm”)]: 3.8mm, 5.6mm
  • Operating Temp: 60°C
  • Pin Configuration: 2M or LD Only

Green Laser DiodesThese Green Laser Diodes are manufactured by OSRAM, a company renowned for its innovation and focus on quality. Output powers range from 10mW up to 100mW (or 140mW in pulsed mode) and wavelengths at 515nm and 520nm. Direct emission green laser diodes can easily be built into laser diode modules by ProPhotonix.

 

Osram Green Laser Diodes offer high reliability and long lifetimes. Osram Laser Diodes are extremely compact and highly efficient laser diodes offering low beam divergence, long lifetime and excellent stability across a broad temperature range. Two package options are available at 3.8mm and 5.6mm. The Green Laser Diodes operate at a range of operating temperatures up to a maximum of 60°C.

Green Laser Diodes Competitive Advantage

Direct emission Green Laser Diodes offer distinct commercial and technical benefits over traditional DPSS green laser diodes and other alternatives in terms of beam quality, efficiency, stability and lifetime.

The Osram Green Laser Diodes allow system designers options to regulate the power, without the need for active temperature control. The green diodes are available with single transverse mode with near-Gaussian beam profiles, a key requirement for many projections and industrial alignment applications.
