Focus Measurement

If you need to measure beam focus, DataRay's ISO 11146 compliant beam profilers are an ideal solution. Our products provide multiple options for focus measurement.

Direct Measurement - Beam Profiling Cameras

Our beam profiling cameras:

• Are suitable for a wide variety of focus spots:

  • 32 μm or larger for wavelengths of 190 to 1350 nm

  • 150 μm or larger for wavelengths 1350 nm to 2 μm

  • 170 μm or larger for wavelengths of 2 to 16 μm

• Provide accurate diameter measurements, 2D images, and profiles

Direct Measurement - Scanning Slit Beam Profilers

Alternatively, our scanning slit beam profilers:

• Are suitable for focus spots 2 μm or larger for wavelengths of 190 to 2500 nm

• Provide accurate diameter measurements and summed X/Y profiles

Measurement with Reimaging or Magnification

If you aren't able to perform a direct measurement, DataRay's Industrial Laser Monitoring System (ILMS) is a great solution. The ILMS is a highly-customizable system designed for high power focus measurements that require reimaging or magnification. It consists of a reimaging system with integrated high-power beam sampler and supports integration with a power meter for real-time power measurements in the DataRay software alongside your beam profile.
