COMPLETE SYSTEMS – ULTRAFAST MACHINING WORKSTATION

Ultrafast Micromachining Workstation Series (UMW-Series)

Twenty years of experience with ultrashort pulse lasers combined with hundreds of real-world projects and years of processing know-how has led to our latest generation of femtosecond ultrafast micromachining workstations.

The UMW-Series includes everything you need to start micromachining with ultrashort-pulsed lasers. This design benefits from our years of experience learning the right combination of components, performance parameters, and software needed to micromachine materials with ultrashort pulses of light.

The Model UMW-Series provides ample space for custom beam delivery and manipulation, includes a sophisticated machine vision and inspection system, and complete computer control. The software interface is a modern graphical design providing intuitive and interconnected controls to all parts of the system. It provides for direct import of CAD files, integrated drawing tools, and import of Gerber and NC Drill files. Imported CAD files can be manipulated within the user interface and closed regions can be filled with numerous hatch option.  For more details on the many features please contact our sales team.
