PowerLaser

Fiber optic technology solution for power lasers

Many industrial applications require a high-power laser source. This is the case for laser welding, soldering, cutting or stripping. The power patch cords are special optical fibers, designed to carry high levels of optical energy, and thus allow the laser source to be remote. The fiber is reinforced with a specific buffer and dedicated connectors

Case studies

Laser cleaning and stripping of materials and surfaces

SEDI-ATI provides fiber optic cables to transport the high-power laser beam from a stripping machine to the surface to be cleaned.

Industrial opticalSensing

Fiber optic technology solution for industrial optical sensors

Optical fibers are widely used to perform industrial optical sensing such as on-line process control or monitoring the structural health of materials and integrity of machines. SEDI-ATI Fibres Optiques is particularly involved in the design and manufacture of optical probes for UV-VIS-NIR (185 nm – 2.5 µm) spectroscopy by ellipsometry or reflectometry. These probes also allow the offset of the light source and the detector (monochromator, spectrophotometer…).
