Motorized Watt Pilot - Attenuator
Motorized Watt Pilot is a computer controlled laser beam attenuation device. It attenuates free space laser beam/pulse continuously without introducing additional energy fluctuations.
Despite stand alone device look, Watt Pilot is very compact and it can be easily integrated in custom optical system.
Product assembling instruction is shown in 360o view tab. Operation principles are described in User manual

We offer new DPSS laser educational kit for students and scientists. The product itself is designed for wide range of users and education topics. This kit is perfect for students who need to understand the basics of laser performance. We have developed three basic versions of the product: one operates in CW, the other is an upgrade with QCW operation mode and the last one can generate 2nd harmonic. We encourage you to build your own kit! Tell us what you need and we will create a kit designed just for your lab and education program!

Laser Diode Driver CW/QCW Only LDD
Only' laser diode driver is aimed at control of low-to-middle power DPSS lasers with cooling of the laser diode based on air or water flow instead of termo-electric Peltier elements. The output power is sufficient to drive single emitter laser diodes, delivering up to 25 W of optical power.
Only LDD is the medium power CW or pulsed mode laser diode driver. Small size microprocessor based unit incorporates on-board LCD user interface and USB 2.0 interface for convenient and versatile control of the diode or DPSS laser. Low heat management requirements allow easy integration of the laser diode driver in various applications, including medical workstations, industrial laser diode based systems and portable laser applications.

The Tiny LDD Laser Diode Driver is an electronic device that contains high power current source (up to 10A) for laser diode (LD) and two controllers for Peltier thermoelectric coolers (TECs). Compact and highly-efficient design limits power dissipation and simplifies heat-sinking requirements. Perfectly suited for OEM applications. The Laser Diode Driver incorporates LD protection features like slow current ramp-up (soft start function), current limit, temperature limit and overheating protection.
