The Synrad p Series has been developed for manufacturers requiring exceptional processing quality on materials where conventional continuous-wave CO₂ lasers may generate excessive heat. By producing high peak pulse power with rapid pulse rise and fall times, the p Series transfers energy efficiently into the material while significantly reducing thermal distortion, melt lips and discolouration.
Available in 100 W, 150 W, 250 W and 400 W models, the range supports everything from precision micro-processing to high-speed industrial cutting. Integrated beam conditioning produces an outstanding circular beam profile for intricate features, while optional pulse and continuous-wave operating modes (p400) provide maximum application flexibility.
Designed specifically for OEM machine builders, the p Series incorporates robust industrial construction, water cooling, gas purge capability and advanced diagnostics on selected models, making it ideal for automated manufacturing systems operating around the clock.
