PLH3D-15W Engraving Laser Head
Description
The newest addition to our family of industrial cutting and engraving laser heads is arguably the most versatile engraving laser on the CNC market. Boasting a real 15 W of optical power as well as a novel design, this compact laser head can process a wide range of wood-based materials, leather, textiles and plastics.
PLH3D-15W Engraving Laser Head
Features
Unrivaled Optical Power in its Class – Utilizes multiple high-power blue laser diodes to scale optical power.
Powered by Blue Laser Diodes - Unlike infrared light, blue light is more easily absorbed by numerous industrial materials. This directly translates to several advantages including reduced power consumption and more compact heat sinking.
Precision-Grade Aspheric Lenses – Each laser module contains four precision-molded lenses, each of which is virtually free of imperfections. Coupled with a vacuum-sputtered multi-layer anti-reflection coating, this design yields superior optical performance and a spectacular power density of 1.5 MW/cm².
Synergy of Power and a Tight Beam Spot – The optical system combines the beams from multiple high-power laser diodes and focuses them to a tight spot. It results in a high power density giving the versatility to engrave diversified materials including stainless steel, tool steel and Titanium.
Lightweight Design Mounts to Nearly any CNC Machine – Featuring a lightweight, Aluminum body that makes the laser weight less than 800 g. As a typical CNC spindle weighs approximately 1.8 kg, CNC machines can operate it effortlessly.
Simple Integration - Can be set-up on nearly any CNC machine since it accepts both analog and PWM CNC signals.
Instant-On Power – No warm-up time.
High-Pressure Air Nozzle Prevents High Upkeep – With the high-pressure air nozzle you can clean the lens 10x less often. The pressurized air also speeds up the cutting and engraving process by removing smoke and preventing excessive dirt build-up on the lens. In addition, the directed airflow cools down the working site, resulting in a lack of defects and a uniform engraving contrast.
Integrated Control Electronics – Designed to prevent your laser diodes from dying prematurely, the control electronics are integrated within the laser module. With no redundant wiring, you don’t need to worry about dangerous inductance effects.
Longer Lifetime – Blue laser diodes have longer lifetimes because they don’t suffer from random failure and age more slowly at higher temperatures. The typical lifetime of the laser’s blue laser diodes is equal to 20,000 hours. In contrast, a lifetime of an average glass CO2 tube laser cutter and engraver equals 3,000 hours.
Applications
Input Signal Versatility - the driver is designed to accept a diverse variety of both analog (0-5 V) and PWM/TTL signals (0-5 V, 0-12 V and 0-24 V)
Compatible with a Wide Range of PSUs (Power Supply Units) - the driver is capable of accepting 19-24 V of PSU voltage thanks to the integrated high-efficiency DC-DC converter, which adjusts the input voltage to fit the appropriate diode compliance voltage. This also effectively minimizes the amount of the waste heat generated as well as ensures over-voltage protection.
High Efficiency of 90% - the driver converts 90% of the power supply into electric power of the diode
Able to Operate at High Input Voltage and Power - of 24 V and 120 W respectively
High-Modulation Bandwidth - ranging from 0 kHz up to 30 kHz;
High Maximum Current Output at 5 A
Integrated within the Laser Module - a compact design coupled with a short linkage between the laser diode and the driver ensures the diode doesn’t die prematurely.
Possesses a Temperature Controller Functionality - whenever the ambient temperature surpasses 40 ⁰C (104 ⁰F), the warning light LED starts blinking. In case the ambient temperature reaches 45 ⁰C (113 ⁰F), the laser module is automatically switched off to prevent any damage to the module.
