Coherent Diamond Cx-10LQS+

The Diamond Cx-10LQS+ uses Q-switch technology (resonator quality modulation). With the help of a special AOM element placed directly inside the resonator, the laser can “store” energy and then release it in an extremely short and intense flash. The result is a pulse with a width of just 200 nanoseconds (fractions of a millionth of a second), carrying peak power of up to 5,000 W.

Thanks to such an extremely short application of enormous power, the laser gives heat no chance to spread from the cutting point further into the material. This creates an effect known in precision micromachining as “cold processing.” This process causes immediate and clean material evaporation (ablation). The energy fulfills its purpose much faster than it could dissipate into the surrounding area in the form of unwanted heat. This completely eliminates the formation of melt, scorching, or microcracks, making it an ideal tool for processing critically sensitive films in the electronics industry and in flat panel display manufacturing.

• High-Tech and Display Manufacturing: Fine cutting of special films and layers in the production of LCD, OLED, and other flat panel displays (FPD).
• Micro-Marking: Surface marking with ultra-high resolution without thermally affecting the material structure.
