Description
PERFECT AND VERSATILE TOOL FOR MICROMACHINING
The FemtoLux 30 femtosecond laser has a tunable pulse duration from <350 fs to 1 ps and can operate in a broad AOM controlled range of pulse repetition rates from a single shot to 4 MHz.
The maximum pulse energy is more than 90 μJ operating with single pulses and can reach 250 µJ in burst mode, ensuring higher ablation rates and processing throughput for different materials.
The FemtoLux 30 beam parameters will meet the requirements of the most demanding materials and micro-machining applications.
Innovative laser control electronics ensure simple control of the FemtoLux 30 laser by external controllers that could run on different platforms, be it Windows, Linux or others using REST API commands.
This makes easy integration and reduces the time and human resources required to integrate this laser into any laser micromachining equipment.
Seamless User Experience
- Easy integration.
Remote control using REST API commands via USB, RS232 and LAN - Reduced integration time.
Demo electronics is available for laser control programming in advance - Easy and quick installation.
No water, fully disconnected laser head. Can be installed by the end-user. - Easy troubleshooting.
Integrated detectors and constant system status logging. - No periodic maintenance required.
Innovative 'Dry' Cooling System
The FemtoLux 30 laser employs an innovative cooling system and sets new reliability standards among industrial femtosecond lasers. No additional bulky and heavy water chiller is needed.
The chiller requires periodic maintenance – cooling system draining and rinsing and water and particle filter replacement. Moreover, water leakage can cause damage to the laser head and other equipment. Instead of using water for transferring heat from a laser head, the FemtoLux 30 laser uses an innovative Direct Refrigerant Cooling method.
The refrigerant agent circulates from a PSU-integrated compressor and condenser, to a cooling plate via armored flexible lines.
The entire cooling circuit is permanently hermetically sealed and requires no maintenance.
Simple & reliable cooling plate attachment
The cooling plate is detachable from the laser head for more convenient laser installation.
The laser cooling equipment is integrated with the laser power supply unit into a single 4U rack-mounted housing with a total weight of 15 kg.
Direct refrigerant cooling system features
- Military-grade reliability
- Permanently hermetically sealed system >90,000 hour MTBF
- No maintenance
- High cooling efficiency
- >45% lower power consumption compared to water cooling equipment
- Compact and light

- Due to continuous improvement, all specifications are subject to change without notice. Parameters marked typical are not specifications. They are indications of typical performance and will vary with each unit we manufacture. All parameters are specified for a shortest pulse duration.
- When frequency divider is set to transmit every pulse. Fully controllable by integrated AOM.
- When number of pulses within a burst is set to 10 and PRR is set to a minimum value. Separation between pulses within a burst – ~20 ns.
- Over 100 h after warm-up under constant environmental conditions.
- Under constant environmental conditions.
- At PRR > 500 kHz. At PRR < 500 kHz shortest pulse duration is < 400 fs.
