Laser Diode Module Information

Laser diode modules from CALPAC LASERS are ideal for commercial, industrial, medical, and OEM applications requiring longer duty cycles, frequent intermittent use, and application specific tolerances. Laser diode modules offer a higher level of performance, greater stability, and are more durable than hand held laser pointers. Simply adding an external power supply creates the perfect alignment laser for industrial positioning, batch processing, scanning, machine vision, imaging, and other applications. Our affordable laser diode modules make excellent replacements for expensive He-Ne lasers, and are optimal for cost-effective prototyping.

Each module is a complete laser assembly including all circuits, a laser diode, and optics packaged in a protective housing. Red alignment lasers projecting highly visible lines or dots are available in wavelengths of 635nm, 650nm, and 660nm. Our green laser diode modules project an extremely bright dot at a wavelength of 532nm.
