Used ESI 9825 #9214702 for sale

ESI 9825 is an Nd:YAG, double-pulse, laser system designed for sub-nanosecond pulse duration. It provides superior pulse peak power up to 2.5 kW for applications such as rapid machining, drilling, and welding of metals and other hard materials. The laser uses a two-pass Nd:YAG laser to amplify a nanosecond pulse to sub-nanosecond duration. The first pass is a pre-amplified discharge pulse module, which lasts about 200 ns. The laser energy in this pre-amplifier stage is increased by a factor of several hundred. The second pass is a high gain xenon flash lamp, achieving pulse durations down to 250 picoseconds. 9825 is operated at a wavelength of 1.064 microns and has a pulse repetition rate of greater than 1 kHz. It has customizable beams to allow for different machining needs, ranging in size from 0.25 mm to 5.0 mm in diameter. The beam can be focused to a spot size of less than 40 microns for precise machining of micro-sized features. The laser has a several safety features, including a tamper proof interlock, a "beam dump" mechanism to prevent misdirected laser radiation from damaging any nearby equipment or personnel, and a standalone control console that allows for the output to be controlled remotely. It also has numerous automated features that allow it to be operated with minimal supervision. ESI 9825 is an efficient laser system and has a low maintenance cost due to its long-life flashlamp and sturdy construction. It also has a reliable output beam quality with little power fluctuations, and a low pulse-to-pulse noise level. This makes the laser more precise and repeatable in machining operations. 9825 is widely used to generate fast, controlled, and temperature-stable laser pulses in a wide variety of scientific and industrial applications.
