The FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP laser module provides up to 1000 mW of power in a compact housing at 19 mm in diameter. The pulse length and duty cycle of the pulsed module are preset at the factory to prevent the laser diode from overheating.
Individual adjustments. However, we can change the pulse length and duty cycle to suit your camera settings and application (maximum pulse length: 20 ms).
MVpulseHP is available in the wavelengths 445 nm, 525 nm, 660 nm, and 808 nm and can be equipped with an RS-232 (0-5 V) or RS-485 interface. You can choose between two housing options and two focusing options (standard and thin line).
With its high light intensity, the FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP is the ideal solution for outdoor inspection applications, such as the inspection of roads and rails. The high output power guarantees optimum resolution and precision in image processing. At the same time, the short exposure times ensure high throughput (more images per second = more components inspected).

FAQs
What you should know about our FLEXPOINT MVpulseHP laser module?
What is the FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP laser module?
The FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP is a laser module that achieves an output power of up to 1000 mW and does not require active cooling despite this high output. It retains a standard diameter of 19 mm and is particularly well suited for outdoor inspection tasks, such as the inspection of roads and rails.
What advantages does the FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP offer compared to other laser modules?
The FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP combines high laser power with a compact design. Thanks to the pulsed emission and an integrated microcontroller, the module remains powerful and the laser diode is protected from over heating. This makes it ideal for use under difficult environmental conditions.
For which applications is the FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP suitable?
This module is particularly well suited for outdoor applications in industrial image processing, such as the inspection of railroad tracks, roads, and train wheels. In the wood industry, laser modules with an output of 300-500 mW at 660 nm and 808 nm also help increase efficiency. Higher light intensities and higher output powers are used in the steel industry as well.
How does the pulsed FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP laser module work?
The laser beam is emitted in pulses that are controlled by a microcontroller. The pulse length and duty cycle are preset at the factory. This prevents the laser diode from overheating and enables stable performance without active cooling.
Which wavelengths are available for the FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP?
The FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP is available in the wavelengths 445 nm (500-1000 mW), 520 nm, 660 nm, and 808 nm (300-500 mW each). The operating temperatures and possible applications vary depending on the wavelength.
Can the output power of the FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP laser module be adapted to a specific application?
Yes, both the peak output power and the pulse length can be adapted to an application. The pulse length can be set between 20 µs and 20 ms (e.g., depending on the exposure time of the camera), and LASER COMPONENTS can customize the duty cycle to the specific requirements of the application. The maximum peak power can be set between 300 mW and 1000 mW depending on the wavelength.
How does the FLEXPOINT® MVpulseHP support image processing in demanding environments?
The combination of high light intensity and compact design enables shorter exposure times and higher resolution in image processing and fits into (almost) any system. This improves throughput and the quality of inspection results, especially in outdoor applications.
