The FPM is a compact, autonomous sensor that measures laser power, power density distribution and beam propagation. It is designed for integration into a production line and can perform measurements during part changes or other down times within a fraction of a second. The FPM is the ideal tool to monitor the overall performance of your laser station. Especially for large and cost intensive parts at the beginning of a value chain, such as batteries and fuel cells, the documentation and monitoring of the tools used (including the laser) becomes more important. Errors in the beam distribution can be identified before they lead to a defective part, and the condition of the laser is documented, should a part fail in a later process.
