Point Source will be showing the latest version of its new multi-laser engine iFlex-Viper II, at Photonics West 2008
iFLex-Viper is described as the world's first high-quality, ready-to-go multi-laser engine, and a major breakthrough for OEMs.
The latest version of this single 'black box' solution, which is suitable for a wide range of precision instrumentation, allows manufacturers to get their new products to market much more quickly than in the past, for significant competitive advantage.
iFLex-Viper II features Point Source's robust Kineflex fibre optic technology for flexibility in instrument design and improved performance over conventional optical systems.
It is said to be ideal for use in the fast-growing pharmaceutical and biotechnology markets for applications such as confocal microscopy and DNA sequencing.
iFLex-Viper II incorporates up to six laser wavelengths, covering the entire visible spectrum range from 405 to 640nm.
It includes a mix-and-match choice of diode, gas and DPSS laser types with a power of up to 50mW per line and low optical noise (0.25%rms).
