IPG Photonics’ Thulium Fiber Lasers have been developed specifically to meet the growing demands of the industrial, medical and R&D markets for high power, compact, efficient, wavelength-selectable, single-mode CW sources of the spectral range of 1900 to 2050 nm. First manufactured in 1999, these laser systems have been field tested and deployed in a variety of R&D and medical applications. TLM and TLR single-mode and multi-mode lasers provide the ideal solution for both laboratory, medical and industrial market segments. OEM modules are available as 10-50 W air-cooled or 50-100 W water-cooled units.
