At the W3-3310 booth of the 2024 LASER World of PHOTONICS CHINA, the Thunder 150kW fiber laser emerged like a sword, aiming directly at meeting the core needs of ultra-thick plate cutting. The improvement of efficiency in thick plate cutting has long been a major pain point in the industry. The key to solving this problem lies in continuously challenging the power limit and creating even more powerful processing capabilities.

 

"The launch of the Thunder 150kW product breaks the global industrial cutting field's high-power record. This innovative achievement not only signifies another peak in domestic laser cutting technology but also heralds the arrival of a new era in global high-power laser industrial applications!" said Chen Xiaohua, Chairman of BWT. The introduction of Thunder 150kW will bring unprecedented efficiency improvements to high-power thick plate cutting and usher in a new processing experience.

(2)   Breaking Through Bottlenecks: Opening Up the Ceiling of Ultra-High Power Applications

 

Technologically, the Thunder 150kW product has broken through the key technological bottlenecks from the generation, transmission, detection of light to its application, thus opening up the ceiling of ultra-high power applications.

 

In terms of research and development, BWT has innovatively adopted CTC integrated technology, seamlessly integrating chips, thermal sink structures, pump modules, and lasers, achieving integrated upgrades from traditional chips to pump sources and then to laser coolers. The company has independently developed a new generation of Thunder optical platform and employed technologies such as power coupling and femtosecond laser grating inscription to ensure high-quality and stable laser output.

In terms of transmission, BWT has independently developed ultra-high-power output heads with advantages such as high output power, wide operating frequency bands, and long service life, supporting the generation and transmission of ultra-high-power lasers up to 200kW.

 

In terms of detection, BWT, for the first time in China, used an optical power meter for the experimental measurement of 150kW laser power. At the same time, the successful testing of Thunder 150kW fills the gap in domestic testing of ultra-high-power experiments above 120kW, providing application data and practical experience for optical power meters (a new type of high-performance testing equipment).

 

In terms of application, the Thunder 150kW product can fully leverage its four major advantages of high power, high efficiency, high brightness, and long fiber delivery cable to significantly improve cutting speed and quality, providing powerful tools and means for exploring the world and promoting rapid development in industries such as industrial and scientific research.

Laser, as a representative of new quality productivity, driven by technological innovation, leads the traditional manufacturing industry onto a new path of efficiency, environmental friendliness, and sustainable development, achieving a double harvest of economic and social benefits.

 

The BWT Thunder 150kW product is a perfect interpretation of new quality productivity, integrating the latest technological innovations and creating the industry's strongest processing capabilities. It is expected to spark an efficiency revolution in the field of ultra-thick plate processing, further reducing costs and increasing efficiency along the industrial chain, injecting vigorous momentum into industrial applications, providing strong support for the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry, and promoting social technological progress and economic development to new heights.

 

The power of technology can change the world. BWT will resonate with the nation and the times, committed to applying the most cutting-edge laser technology to various fields, contributing to the progress of human society.
