Picosecond Lasers in the TruMicro Series 5000

TruMicro 5050

The lasers in the TruMicro Series 5000 are picosecond lasers with powers of up to 50 W and pulse energies up to 250 μJ. The extremely short pulses of less than 10 ps vaporize almost any material so quickly that no heat-affected zone is detectable. These lasers enable micro processing with an optimal combination of quality, productivity and profitability.

Category	Diode-pumped picosecond lasers
Products	TruMicro 5050, TruMicro 5250, TruMicro 5350
Application fields	Micro processing: Cutting, Structuring, Ablating, Drilling
Integration	Integration into product lines or into special machines

 
The decisive advantage of picosecond lasers from TRUMPF is the easy scalability to power levels of 50 W and more, with pulse energies of up to 250 μJ. Penetration into these performance classes has only been made possible by disk laser technology. It is superior to other technologies in terms of peak power and pulse energy while simultaneously retaining excellent beam quality.

The high average power of 50 W results in high throughput during production. Additionally, the total costs of ownership of the disk lasers in the TruMicro Series 5000 are unbeatably low.

High peak powers of up to 40 MW enable efficient frequency conversion in the visible and ultraviolet spectral range. Semiconductor materials, dielectrics and plastics can therefore be processed with outstanding quality and high throughput.
