High-speed laser illumination for fast process monitoring

For image and video recording of fast processes in industry and research

Supporting illumination sources are necessary for guaranteeing the high-quality required for your high-speed camera solution.

Additional illumination enables cameras to use shorter exposure times, achieving frame rates from thousands to millions of frames per second. Beyond halogen lamps and powerful LEDs, laser illumination offers advantages due to its very short pulses, down to 1 ns, significantly reducing motion blur. Monochromatic laser illumination with high spectral intensity can reveal objects and processes normally obscured by strong process light, such as molten pools during welding, cutting, or 3D printing.
