uniLDD laser diode drivers.

Next-generation uniLDD laser diode drivers by EKSPLA deliver high currents with exceptional stability

In diode pumping, current stability is everything. EKSPLA’s second-generation uniLDD drivers push 10 – 1200 A at under 0.1% ripple, with optional TEC channels to hold diodes and Peltier elements steady from one unit.

Innovation Award for FemtoLux 50

EKSPLA's industrial femtosecond laser FemtoLux 50 nominated for Innovation Award

Cooling causes roughly half of industrial laser failures, so EKSPLA’s FemtoLux 50 drops the water chiller. Its 50 W femtosecond output and waterless cooling earned a finalist spot at the Laser World of Photonics Innovation Award.

Day of Photonics

We celebrate the Day of Photonics

No photonics, no selfies, no internet. On the Day of Photonics, EKSPLA traces the photon from Gilbert Lewis’s 1926 coinage to the lasers and optical fibers that wired the modern world.

New Material Processing Applications Now Available on Ekspla Website

Glass, metal, ceramics, and polymers, all machined with one industrial laser. EKSPLA has added a fresh batch of FemtoLux material-processing samples that show what GHz and MHz+GHz burst modes make possible.

Project EKSPLA Inside has launched

Project 'EKSPLA Inside' has launched

EKSPLA’s lasers already sit inside stent cutters, phone-glass machines, and cancer-research scanners. The EU-funded EKSPLA Inside project aims to place them inside many more OEM systems worldwide.
