Hello, I am designing a machine that will use multiple CO2 laser tubes. In order to design the optics I need some information on the characteristics of the beam generated by a CO2 laser tube. I am particularly interested in the Reci W4, although any representative tube will suffice.
I contacted Reci for any information on beam diameter at the output coupler, beam divergence and beam profile, still waiting for a reply. I have not found any such information on EFR or SDZ either. It strikes me as something that should be available from reputable manufacturers.
Would anyone have ballpark estimates for these parameters or any pointers?
Best,
Alex
