Short and ultrashort pulse lasers

TruPulse nano

Unsurpassed versatility in nanosecond processing

Versatility for a wide range of applications

Our pulsed TRUMPF TruPulse nano fiber lasers with GTWave and PulseTune technology are some of the most versatile industrial lasers in the TRUMPF portfolio. These lasers operate within the nanosecond pulse duration range and are used in a multitude of industrial applications. They offer users unmatched flexibility. As they are also maintenance-free, you can concentrate on the result instead of on time-consuming and costly maintenance plans.

Flexibility

Use a non-contact procedure to create permanent markings at high speed and with a high level of precision. In addition, laser markings do not require any consumable materials; they are computer-generated and therefore offer maximum flexibility.

Innovative technology

Reach the heights of pulsed nanosecond technology with extended functions for microprocessing which elevate our PulseTune-compatible lasers to a new level. These lasers provide OEM integrators with highly flexible control of the pulse range and peak power. The unique PulseTune function enables market-leading pulse repetition frequencies while simultaneously maintaining peak power.

Versatility

Select from up to 48 available wave forms. You increase your process quality and productivity as the central pulse features can be perfectly optimized for individual applications.

No maintenance

The pulsed fiber lasers operate maintenance-free. This means you can concentrate on the result at all times – time-consuming maintenance plans are a thing of the past.

TRUMPF TruPulse nano application drilling

Drilling

In the case of laser drilling, a laser beam is repeatedly pulsed onto a certain area. The material to be drilled is evaporated and melted layer-by-layer until this creates drilled holes. Drilling with lasers is characterized by a high degree of precision which can be carefully controlled by monitoring the beam intensity and duration.

TRUMPF TruPulse nano application cutting

Cutting

The laser beam can be easily programmed so that it can cut a variety of thicknesses and materials with precision. This includes metals including reflective metals such as copper, silver and aluminum, as well as brass, tungsten, steel, tin and titanium. Gems such as diamonds, or ceramic, graphic compound materials, silicon and many types of plastic can also be processed. Even very complex forms can be cut very precisely as the user always has full control of the beam intensity, duration and heat input.

FURTHER INFORMATION
TRUMPF TruPulse nano application marking and engraving

Marking and engraving

While a marking is simply on the surface of a workpiece, an engraving is an in-depth marking. Almost any material can be marked in black with the laser, and some materials can even be marked in color. Laser markings are used on ceramic, plastics, metals, LEDs, rubber and graphic compound materials, among others.
