Optics
1 µm Cover Slides
Protect and increase the lifetime of valuable process optics in materials processing systems based on near-infrared fiber and solid-state lasers.
Many laser cutting, welding, cladding and other materials processing tasks create backspatter and debris which may deposit on lens surfaces lowering performance or leading to damage. Inexpensive, replaceable protective windows provide the solution.
