Photonic Products develops range of compact and affordable laser modules generating an accurate line or cross at 635 or 650nm with uniform intensity distribution.
Photonic Products has developed a range of compact and affordable laser modules generating an accurate line or cross at 635 or 650nm with uniform intensity distribution.
The laser modules measure 29mm in length and 8mm in diameter.
They are for demanding industrial and medical applications where space is short, such as handheld instrumentation, targeting, alignment and machine vision.
These laser diode modules generate either a 70deg full angle cross or a 58 or 88deg full angle line, all factory focused at 1000mm.
The focus can be set at other distances on request.
The lens system produces a uniform intensity laser line.
At a visible wavelength of either 650 or 635nm, these laser diode modules have output powers of 0.9 or 4mW with power stability of less than 5%.
Operating voltage is from 3 to 6V DC at a typical operating current of 30mA (0.9mW) or 40mA (4mW).
Operating temperature range is -10 to +40C.
The laser modules consist of a brass housing, a laser diode, drive circuit and beam-shaping optics.
Electrical connections are made via external flying leads.
All modules have static, surge and reverse polarity circuit protection.
