The Latest Generation Of 10 kW-High Power
Laser Cables: HPLDautomotive
Compatible with all LLK available on the market
Frank Optic Products® offers state-of-the-art innovative
high power laser cables in the high end range of the10-kW class for laser material processing. The highpower HPLDautomotive laser cable makes it possible tomeet an enormous variety of requirements for applications in laser material processing economically andefficiently via fibre-optic beam delivery systems. As withall fibre systems from Frank Optic Products® here, too,the laser machine engineer, developer and laser user
can always tune them individually to match his laser andhis application. With this system it is also possible to combine it with other plug-in connector systems. Connection
and utilisation of all laser sources commonly to be foundon the market is guaranteed. The user alone determines
performance and safety.

Higher performance and greater safety –a new cable concept and new materials
By using fibre materials recently developed especiallyfor the high performance range it is possible totransport 10 kW laser power. For this purpose thefibre was equipped with a multi-cladding structure andthe concentricity of the fibre core was substantially
improved. This makes it possible to optimise coupling-inof the laser beam and to carry higher energies in thecladding. Besides the fibre material, new metal materials are used for the HPLDautomotive laser cable inrespect of the alloy, hardening and chemical resistance.
Optimal heat removal is guaranteed thank to active
cooling, which takes place close to the hot spots.
The active cooling takes place without requiring
maintenance and is especially suitable for Di water.
With a compressive strength of up to 10 bars it can beconnected to any of the existing laser cooling systems.

Especially suitable for use in robots
Thanks to electrical isolation and integrated electricaland optical shielding, the new cable safety concept
with the hybrid protective cladding is much safer
in operative use – particularly when used in robots
with their short, abrupt movements. The new safetyconcept has an improved fuse plug and fibre breakage
watchdog, which significantly reduce the trigger force
or path. The cladding, which contains all the individual
electronic and optical wires in the form of a hybrid
cladding demonstrates significantly better stability,
torsion, tensile strength and stability than the other LLK
systems on the market.

Efficient, reliable and economical thanks
to compatibility and individuality
High compatibility of plug-in connectors of the same
system enables the connection and utilisation of alllaser sources commonly to be found on the market.
The HPLDautomotive high power laser cable is compatible with all LLK systems for Nd:YAG lasers, diodelasers and fibre lasers. Existing and new laser systems
can continue to be use or be used in parallel with the
HPLDautomotive.

Applications
Laser marking and laser material processing

High Power Laser Cable
For The Medium Output Range
HPLK high power laser cable system
Complete solutions thanks tomultiple laser cable
In order to be in a position to offer economicalsolutions to meet the diverse applications requirements
in laser material processing, Frank Optic Products®
has developed a laser cable modular system, whichmakes it possible to use beam delivery systems in
output classes between 10 to 1000 W individually,
but always with the plug-in connectors from the same
system.

Higher performance for all types of laser
Owing to the high degree of compatibility of thesame-system plug-in connector systems, the HPLK laser
cable modular system developed by Frank Optic
Products® enables all laser sources commonly to befound on the market to be connected and used.
It therefore provides users and laser manufacturers
with the option of continuing to use existing and newlaser systems with the same fibre-optic beam delivery
systems or of using them parallel to one another.

The HPLK modular system
Efficient and economical thanks tocompatibility and variety
The HPLK multiple high power laser cable systemcomprises a modular system with 5 different standard
solutions and 6 standard safety devices, such astemperature watchdog, CCS, fibre breakage identification FPS, plug-in contact, protection by reflexion SHR,
electrical isolation and RFID, all of which can be
combined and adapted individually according tocustomer wishes and the respective application.
The HPLK modular system permits the user maximum
freedom for designing the laser system.

HPLKCoolConnect® – miniaturized in the
1-kW high power range
Standard plug-in connectors on laser cables are frequently unable to withstand the concomitant heat development. The CoolConnect® systems recently developed byFrank Optic Products® comprise, as standard, an active
water cooling system for all customary laser plug-in connector systems and protection by reflexion ensures greater
safety and reliability in the high performance range.

HPLK-FD80HR – low heat development on
plug-in connector owing to protection byreflexion
This plug-in connector system is used by preference
in order to be able to use diode lasers optimally inmaterials processing and for marking in the medium tohigh performance classes up to 600 W. Owing to theprotection by reflexion integrated in the ferrule behindthe behind the fibres, it is therefore possible to couple-inthe critical beam profile, e.g. of diode lasers precisely
and with optimal energy transfer. For this reason the
FD80HR system represents a technical and economicalsolution for many applications in the medium performance range.

HPLK-FD80/ FD80basic
the efficient, affordable standard solution
As the basis for the HPLK modular system a plug-in
connector technically reduced to the bare necessities
and which facilitates the transmission of laser output
up to 200 W. Hence, the FD80basic system makes it
possible to work economically and efficiently without
foregoing the necessary precision for coupling-in.

HPLK-FD80modestrip
for an improved beam geometry
The modestrip systems are designed so that the major
intensity of the modes located in the cladding isalready coupled-out from the fibre within the couplingin plug.

Applications
Laser marking and laser material processing; especiallysuitable for use with flexible and compact designs andfor robot and portal use
