Manufacturing CO2 laser optics
Podeo manufactures most of standart optics, integrated in CO2 lasers, commonly used on the market, such as:
AMADA – BYSTRONIC – LVD – MAZAK – PRIMA – TRUMPF…
Podeo only manufactures optics out off the resonator:
- Focus lenses: the aim here is to transmit the greatest power of the laser towards the cutting point, while avoiding overheating of the component.
- Total reflectors: the aim is to return as much of the laser’s power to the lens.
- Phase retarder: the aim is to transform linear polarization of the laser beam into a circular polarization, so as to produce an homogeneous cross-section whatever the axis.
