What are the benefits of change YAG laser to a fiber laser?

In design, fiber lasers generate less heat and are more efficient at managing the heat generated.

The energy consumption of the erbium-doped diode-pumped fiber laser (pump wavelength 980 nm) . Is lower than that of the Nd:YAG diode-pumped laser (pump wavelength 808 nm) (ie, the difference between pump source energy and emission energy).

In addition, fiber lasers typically have a light-to-light conversion efficiency of 70-80%, while lamp-pumped YAG is only about 4%, and diode-pumped YAG and disc lasers are about 40%. Since the laser always containe within the fiber, there are no other factors in the laser cavity that cause laser loss.

1, The optical and optical conversion efficiency of fiber lasers is higher than 30%, while the lamp-pumped YAG laser is only 1.5% to 2%.
2, No need to replace the flash, which is more cost-effective: unlike lamp pumping, a fiber-optic laser uses a carrier-grade single-core junction semiconductor laser tube with a lifetime of up to 100,000 hours.
3, The spot size and shape of all power levels fix
4, Maintenance free or maintenance free
5, Very few spare parts
6, Air cooled or basically does not require cooling
7, Very small size
8, Longer working distance
9, No adjustment required
10, No need to warm up, ready to use
