Laser power measurement with an easy-to-use, fast, and small thermopile sensor

When using lasers, it is crucial to monitor how much power is provided to a system in order to ensure trouble-free process operation. Additionally, safety regulations for staff and equipment are in most cases based on laser power measurements. The gSKIN® Sensors allow you to determine the power density of your laser.

Laser power measurement with the gSKIN® Radiation Sensor is easy. The sensor features:

• Fast response time
• Small geometry & thin
• High sensor homogeneity
• Measures a broad range of laser types

Laser power measurement applications

The gSKIN® sensors are used as design-in components for:

• Cutting, welding, marking and soldering lasers: the sensor information gives your systems the ability to control laser properties instantly resulting in uniform production performance.
   
• Medical lasers: Accurate laser measurements simplify responding to safety demands for medical technology equipment.
   
• Beam positioning and profiling modules: With the split gSKIN® sensors, it is possible to obtain valuable information about beam position and beam uniformity. If space is not a limiting factor, multiple gSKIN® sensors can be arranged in the area of the laser spot. In applications with limited space, the split gSKIN® sensor is more suitable. It integrates two or more sensors within one sensor module, and thus lets you add beam positioning and profiling features without additional effort and space requirement.
