EPIC Technology Meeting on Industrial Laser Processes

Milano, Italy

September 10-11, 2025

In industrial laser applications with high-power lasers, it is essential to reduce thermal effects on materials and improve process efficiency or implement new processes.

At this EPIC Technology Meeting, the latest developments within the entire supply chain for laser processes in all industries and markets will be discussed and the existing challenges defined.

Join us on September 11, 2025, for a presentation by our laser optics expert Dr.-Ing. Hansjörg Rohde on »Low Absorption Coatings for High-Power kW Laser Applications« in Session 3!

We look forward to your visit!

Product Overview

Beyond Borders

Achromatic waveplates consists of two plates.

Aspherical lenses correct aberrations, which in monochromatic light include image sharpness errors and distortion.

A typical application of these lenses is the focusing of a collimated beam onto an optical fiber.

Beam splitters for separating a beam into two equal parts without changing the polarization

Non-polarizing beam splitters split the incident light with an R/T ratio of 50%. They are designed for exactly one wavelength and do not have any influence on the polarization of the beam to be split.

Brewster plates are used to separate s- and p-polarized light.

Brewster plates have a rectangular shape and are inserted at a specific angle of incidence to the laser beam. Light that is polarized parallel to the plane of incidence/reflection is completely transmitted at Brewster’s angle, whereas about 50 % of s-polarized light is transmitted.

Cavity end mirrors are used to generate the laser beam in the resonator.

Resonator end mirrors, also known as cavity mirrors, are designed to have high reflectivity at the desired laser wavelength in order to maximize the efficiency of the laser.

ROUND AND RECTANGULAR CYCLINDER LENSES ARE USED TO CREATE LINES / BEAM EXPANSIONS IN ONE DIRECTION.

We offer plano-concave and plano-convex cyclindrical lenses in rectangular, square, and round form.

DIAGNOSTIC BEAM SPLITTERS FOR PROCESS MONITORING

Dichroic mirrors separate or combine two or more beams of different wavelengths in the desired ratio and enable process monitoring on the operating level in several wavelength ranges, as well as beam diagnostics. Their complex design enables multiple transmission and reflection ranges.
