Taper in fibre laser
Taper in fibre laser
(OP)
Hi Guys,
On a Amada FLC-AJ and experiencing taper across 1.2mm stainless. It's taper of 0.025mm, 0.6mm deep which then tapers back in - similar to a hour glass form.
Tried adjust focus with no huge beneift.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

The longer the focal length, the more stretched out the hourglass. A really short focal length will show a very pronounced hourglass, particularly in thicker metals (and the loss of processing energy shows when you try to use a short focal length lens with a thick substrate).

Also Power, Freq and Duty - if you reduce duty (that's the on/off time of the beam per cycle?) would you increase frequency to allow for that gap between beams?
