JK Lasers set to showcase latest products at Laser World of Photonics 2011

GERMANY: As a global specialist in the manufacture of industrial laser solutions, JK Lasers (part of the GSI Group) will be participating in the 2011 Laser World of Photonics exhibition in Munich, Germany.

During the event, due to be held at the Neue Messe München from 23-26 May 2011, JK Lasers will showcase a number of their newest products including a 1kW Fiber Laser, 500W Fiber Laser and the JK System 5000.

The JK System 5000 is a flexible workstation that can be integrated with lasers from the JK Fiber and Nd:YAG ranges. With a variety of customisable options including linear and rotary axes, process tools and scan heads, and proprietary software closely coupling motion and laser control, it provides a highly versatile solution for many industrial cutting, welding and drilling applications.

A 400W modulated, air-cooled JK Fiber Laser will be integrated into the system, to demonstrate a combined metal cutting and welding operation on a single part, made from a material that is typically used for industrial applications.

This mid-power, air-cooled Fiber Laser is suited to a wide variety of industrial manufacturing and precision applications. It can be used with a selection of JK processing heads and combines single mode fiber beam delivery, high efficiency and patented processing technologies, without requiring a cooling water supply for operation.

Whilst at the exhibition, JK Lasers also plan to launch a new addition to the JK Fiber Laser range. The new JK500FL will enable manufacturers to process a range of materials with high accuracy, at a quicker rate.

Similarly to the other products in the JK FL range, the 500W Fiber Laser will require minimal maintenance and will be supplied in a rack-mounted format, providing enhanced efficiency in the workplace.

Visitors interested in any of JK Lasers’ Nd:YAG Lasers, Fiber Lasers or associated products are invited to visit the JK Lasers stand to discuss their requirements with the Sales team. JK Lasers can be found at booth # C1.466 from 23-26 May 2011.
