Back to Hall of Fame


Turning Point Lasers Corporation (TPL) is the first Asian company that produces a series of award-winning high-brightness blue direct diode laser sources (DDL). This innovative product paves an important new venue for the precise processing of non-ferrous materials such as Cu, Au, and Ag as the absorption rate of Cu at 450nm is 13 times higher than today’s fiber laser wavelength of ~1070nm. This product is based on TPL’s patented “ultra-high brightness with low numerical aperture fiber output blue laser modules”. It uses a simple and robust all-fiber design with advanced thermal management and is cost-effective, energy-saving, more robust, more reliable, smaller, and more rigid compared to the company’s counterparts.

This new product can save ~90% of the energy traditionally used in manufacturing. Therefore, many first-tier manufacturers have begun implementing blue lasers into their non-ferrous materials, especially Cu-related processes to meet the 2050 net-zero emission target.

Additive manufacturing, which is different from the traditional subtraction process, can effectively reduce the total cost since it uses less material, minimizes the cost of human mistakes, and reduces manufacturing time. It has been widely adopted by customized industries such as medical, dental, aerospace, and military. Since the density of Cu processed by a high-brightness blue laser can be as dense as that of the forged metal, this unique feature will generate many explosive applications.

"TPL Offers 500W 450nm Blue DDLs for Non-Ferrous Metal Processing"


Highlights

  • All fiber structures are robust in nature, cost-efficient, energy-efficient, and have high CP value.
  • Can be easily integrated with IR fiber lasers, making it more energy-efficient and lower in cost.
  • Can be applied in material processing (welding, cutting, and cladding), 3D printing (new materials), lighting (special lighting, headlights), and displays (3D cinema projectors).
