Powell Laser

Your Advantage with Powell Laser

Uniform energy distribution across the entire laser line.

As the connecting link between vehicle and road, tires are among the most important safety components of a vehicle. With decreasing tread depth, the risk of aquaplaning, for example, increases. Therefore, in most countries, there is a legally regulated minimum tread depth (in Europe, for example, at least 1.6 mm). To accurately determine this depth, certain (partly non-contact) measurement methods using laser components are utilized. And this is exactly where the quality of the light source plays a crucial role:

In contrast to classic cylindrical lenses, which generate a Gaussian laser line and lose energy towards the edge, Powell lenses are characterized by a homogeneous energy distribution curve across the entire laser line.

Using Powell lasers, you achieve highly precise measurement results that can make your processes faster, more effective, and more cost-efficient.

Powell lenses in image processing - for highest precision and detail accuracy

Customers from industry and automotive use lasers with Powell lenses to optimize production processes and reduce costs.

Typical application in the field of image processing with lasers:

When a prototype is to go into series production, many companies in industrial manufacturing, for example, require a digital 3D model. Unlike traditional cylindrical round lenses, which create a Gaussian laser line and lose energy towards the edge, Powell lenses are characterized homogeneous energy distribution curve across the entire laser line.

By using Powell lasers, you will achieve a highly precise 3D scan even on edges and detailed surfaces, which can make your processes cleaner, faster and more effective.
