JDSU and the Amada has recently announced plans to jointly develop one to four kilowatts output power fiber laser's second-generation kit. The laser will be used in Amada's high-power laser material processing system.
JDSU and Amada partnership builds on the previous first generation of laser research and development based on cooperation. Focus on improving costs, reduce size and improve the beam quality, a new generation of kilowatt fiber laser material processing will further expand the market Amada technology.
"Our relationship with Amada is a typical example of collaborative innovation, which is driving us and our partners, customers and suppliers to the principles of good relations." JDSU, President and CEO Tom Waechter said. "We are very proud to cooperate with the Amada to promote this innovative, high-power and high energy efficient products to market."
Amada JDSU's fiber-optic technology will be incorporated into the sheet metal cutting systems, provide the world's fastest wire cutting technology. The laser power can effectively through the high reflectivity of the metal, such as titanium, copper, and Cooper, you can also simply change the system settings to provide very precise and flexible cutting. Metal processing is one of the largest market for lasers, fiber laser industry in recent years, significant development potential. Industry analyst firm Strategies Unlimited predicts that 2013 kilowatt laser materials processing market will grow more than 1 billion U.S. dollars.
