Copper Vapour Laser (CVL)

LS Copper Vapour Laser
Our world-famous copper vapor lasers

The Copper vapour laser is an ideal high-speed, high-power imaging laser. The short pulse, high beam quality, high power beam makes it ideal for imaging applications at frequencies 10kHz requiring light-sheets or area illumination.

The latest LS-Series of copper vapor lasers offer turnkey operation, with various triggering and burst mode options up to 50kHz for ultimate flexibility.

Choose either the LS20-30 LS20-50 or the LS 35
