Outstanding performance, combined with compact size and air-cooled operation, make the firestar v-series lasers perfect for incorporation into high-performance laser engravers and high speed marking systems.
Based on a waveguide design, Synrad’s v-series resonator technology guarantees a circular beam (typical M2 =1.1) in both the near and far field. This near-perfect beam can be focused to the smallest achievable spot size, thereby creating the maximum possible power density on a work surface. This results in faster processing speeds and higher resolution for cutting or engraving applications.
The resonator design features a small diameter bore and high gas fill pressure for fast rise/fall times (typically 80-90 µsec), while the large gas ballast ensures the long operating lifetimes expected of all Synrad lasers. Long term power stability of better than ±3% is typical.
As with all Synrad lasers, the v-series can be operated up to 100% duty cycle, with laser power adjusted using a pulse width modulation (PWM) control. Both v-series models incorporate an internal RF supply, and are driven by standard 30VDC power supplies.
Designed for ease-of-integration, the firestar v30 and v40 lasers incorporate a unique 3-point mounting system for easy removal and replacement. The firestar v-series and t-series lasers share common beam exits, ensuring virtual drop-in replaceability up to 100 watts.
Synrad’s v40, available in both keyswitch or OEM configurations, features an onboard tickle generator, an industry standard 5-24VDC I/O port and 15-pin D-Sub connector for remote control and status lines. The v40 is available in either air (SA*), fan (SF/KF), or water-cooled (SW/KW) configurations.
The v30, available strictly as an OEM laser, does not incorporate a built-in tickle generator, and features simplified LEDs and an I/O interface using DB-9 and RJ-45 connectors. The OEM v30 laser is available in your choice of models: air-cooled (SA*), fan-cooled (SF), or water-cooled (SW).
