Hans Low Power Lasers

YAG Lamp Pump lasers have been providing laser marking for decades.  The lamp provides a powerful beam that is coherently focused to 1064 nanometers.  These markers are used for marking metals and nonmetals.  The price of the consumable lamp has dropped in recent years, and the initial investment is the lowest for all laser markers except the CO2 laser.  However, the Lamp Pump is ideal for metals where the CO2 laser beam is reflected by most metals.  Lamp Pump lasers also require more power to operate, both in illuminating the lamp and cooling it.  See power requirements in the products below.

Typical buyers of lamp pump lasers are users that infrequently use, or use part-time the laser marker.  Also, they are somewhat technical to maintain the laser, or have a nearby service technician to provide maintenance. 

The laser work stations below come in several power levels and configurations.  Also, you need to select the laser marking area for your laser.  Read below to find the work station that fits your facility. 

YAG Lamp Pump lasers consume the flash lamp every three hundred hours of operation.  Lamps are replaced in a relatively simple process, and at a cost of less than one hundred US dollars.

First invented in the late 1960s, lamp pumped laser markers are the low-cost leader for laser marking metals and nonmetals.

Diode and fiber lasers costs much more as an initial investment, yet require less maintenance and fewer consumable items over their lifetime.
