What is a sealed tube CO₂ laser?
A sealed tube CO₂ laser is a favored technology for a broad range of applications due to its versatility, reliability, and efficiency that can improve productivity. Sealed tube CO₂ lasers generate a concentrated beam of light at specific wavelengths through the excitation of a gas mixture within a tube, making these self-contained modules that can be integrated into larger laser processing systems. The gas mixture is energized by an electrical discharge, causing the CO₂ molecules to emit a beam of infrared light. The beam of light is directed to the target material via secondary beam delivery systems to perform a variety of laser processing interactions, including cutting, marking, engraving, and ablation on a range of materials.
Novanta CO₂ lasers enable non-contact material processing, eliminating tool wear and maintenance costs associated with traditional processing technologies, making them an efficient, cost-effective solution.
