by

We are excited to announce NM Laser’s first post-pandemic exhibition at SPIE Optics + Photonics in San Diego California from August 3rd to 5th, 2021, Booth #434. After a year of virtual communication, it will be a great opportunity to see you all in-person and discuss topics such as:

  • Legacy Products Upgraded Specifications
  • Next Generation of Optical Shutters: LST-5VDC Direct Drive
  • Next Generation of Laser Shutters: Universal Non-Contact Shutter
  • Custom Laser or Optical Shutters to meet your needs

 
“In era of virtual communication, nothing compares to the in-person connections and conversations changing the world.”

Introducing Our Best Value Optical Shutter

by

LST-5VDC Direct Drive Optical Shutter

NM Laser Products introduces the best value optical shutter available in the entire market. The LST-5VDC electrical drive provides the simplest form for users with 5V direct drive (no controller needed).

Thermal management becomes negligible with only 2.5 W thermal power dissipation when holding open and improving to 1.2 W while at maximum repetition rate operation of 50 Hz.

LST-5VDC is targeted for biotech and laser vision sensing markets with the highest reliability life-time available (1 Billion Cycles).

Read the LST-5VDC specifications here.

COVID-19 UPDATE | NM LASER

by

During these difficult times, NM Laser team’s main goal has been to maintain the safety of employees while meeting essential customer needs. Our medical, bio-tech, and OEM customers have identified NM Laser as an essential and critical parts supplier which granted us continuous operation from the beginning of the global shutdown in early 2020. We understood the importance of supporting customers that were producing critical safety equipment and tools for scientific researchers of the COVID-19 virus.
 
Our Business Continuity Plan was the key component in staying prepared for such a natural disaster. For the safety of our employees, NM Laser follows strict guidelines, such as: 6 ft. social distancing, mandatory masks, minimum external visits, staggered lunches and breaks, and cleanroom grade gloves. In order to meet customer demands, we were prepared with full inventory on raw materials, sub-assemblies, and FGI. Meanwhile, dual and triple supply chain sources were created to meet any on-demand needs. Our facility is well equipped and tooled for the most efficient lean manufacturing.
 
As we continue to look forward, the global market is preparing for a bounce back stronger than pre-pandemic. Our employees feel safe and we are ready to increase capacity to meet customer needs. The pandemic has proven the importance of preparedness. A strong supply chain in any market promotes a strong rebound from all disasters.

 
 
Sincerely,
 
Mohammad Khaliki, Executive V.P.

NEW DIAMOND TECHNOLOGY

by

NM Laser Products has been manufacturing laser shutters for over 30 years using patented flexure technology. Our laser shutters are customized optically and mechanically for specific OEM grade customer applications. This customization limits the shutter per specific application or system.
 
NM Laser is pleased to announce the next generation of laser shutter that will be in production in the near future using patented diamond technology. The diamond technology is designed for high irradiance, high laser induced damage threshold (LIDT) with broadband wavelength absorption.
 
The Diamond technology is designed using advanced material science, electromechanical, and magnetic systems:

  • Universal wavelength between 150-11,000 nm with one device.
  • Cleanroom certified, baked at 200C.
  • High irradiance and Laser Induced Damage Threshold (LIDT).
  • Highest thermal conductivity material known to mankind.
  • Highest thermal shock resistance known.
  • Perform as safety and process shutter in one device.
  • Small packaging size with simple electronic drive.
  • Low shock and vibration during operation.

 
NM Laser’s R&D team is working diligently to release product into beta site testing limited to OEM customers. Product release date to market is expected in 2021.
