60 Watt Coherent Laser Diode Test

This is a test of a Coherent laser diode array module. Although small, this laser duode module is capable of producing up to 60 watts of 808nm infared light. This is enough power to be able to cut paper, cardboard, wood glass or even steel! The laser runs on only 2.5 volts but requires a lot of current to be able to generate that kind of output. The laser also requires water cooing at a stabilized temperature to create peak output power and keep the laser diode from burning up. I’m eventually planning o
