The performance of today’s laser systems can strongly affect the success of demanding, modern laser applications.

The beam's size, shape, uniformity or approximation to the expected power distribution, as well as its divergence and mode content can make or break an application. Accurate knowledge of these parameters is essential to the success of any laser-based endeavor. As laser applications push the boundaries of laser performance it is becoming more critical to understand the operating criteria.

BeamGage includes all of the accuracy and ISO approved quantitative results that made our LBA software so successful. BeamGage also brings the ease-of-use that has made our BeamStar software so popular. Our patented UltraCal algorithm, guarantees the data baseline or “zero-reference point” is accurate to 1/10 of a digital count on a pixel-by-pixel basis. ISO 11146 requires that a baseline correction algorithm be used to improve the accuracy of beam width measurements. UltraCal has been enhanced in BeamGage to assure that accurate spatial measurements are now more quickly available.

See Your Beam As Never Before:

The Graphical User Interface (GUI) of BeamGage is new. Dockable and floatable windows plus concealable ribbon tool bars empowers the BeamGage user to make the most of a small laptop display or a large, multi-monitor desktop PC.

Measure Your Beam As Never Before:

Ultracal: Essential, or no big deal?
If you want accurate beam measurements, you want Ultracal.

What is Ultracal?

Our patented, baseline correction algorithm helped establish the ISO 11146-3 standard for beam measurement accuracy. The problems with cameras used in beam profile measurements are: a) The baseline, or zero, of the cameras will drift with time and temperature changes, and b) include random noise. Ultracal is the only beam profiler algorithm that sets the baseline to “zero”, and, in the center of the noise. (Competitive products use other less sophisticated algorithms that perform a baseline subtraction, but truncate the noise below the “zero” of the baseline. This leaves only a “positive” component, which adds a net value to all beam measurements).

Try the following on any other beam profiler product to see the inherent error if you don’t use Ultracal.

1. Measure a beam with full intensity on the profiler camera.
2. Insert a ND2 filter (100X attenuation) into the beam and measure it again.
3. Compare the results.
4. The Standard Deviation below is about 3%, which is phenomenal compared to the 100% or more of any beam profiler without Ultracal. Adding the use of Automatic Aperture improves the accuracy to 1%. (The conditions of this measurement is a camera with a 50dB SNR).
5. You normally don’t make measurements at such a low intensity. But occasionally you may have a drop in intensity of your beam and don’t want to have to adjust the attenuation. Or, you may occasionally have a very small beam of only a few tens of pixels. In both of these cases, Ultracal becomes essential in obtaining accurate measurements.

Beam Measurements and Statistics

BeamGage allows you to configure as many measurements as needed to support your work, and comes standard with over 55 separate measurement choices. To distinguish between calculations that are based on ISO standards and those that are not, a graphical ISO logo is displayed next to appropriate measurements. You can also choose to perform statistical calculations on any parameter in the list.

Multiple Charting Options

You can create strip charts for stability observations on practically any of the calculations options available. Charts enable tracking of short or long term stability of your laser.

Pass / Fail with Password Protection for Production Testing

BeamGage allows the user to configure the displayed calculations; set-up the screen layout and password protect the configuration from any changes. This permits secure product testing as well as data collection for Statistical Process Control (SPC), all while assuring the validity of the data.

Unique Features of BeamGage - Standard

Power/Energy Calibration

Using the USB output from select Ophir power/energy meters, the BeamGage application will display measured power/energy values from the full range of Ophir thermopile, photodiode and pyroelectric sensors. Pulsed lasers can be synced up to 100Hz, or the frame rate of the triggered camera, whichever is less. This is the first time in the industry a laser power meter has been married to a laser beam profile system.

BeamMaker®; Numerical Beam Profile Generator

BeamGage contains a utility, BeamMaker, that can synthetically generate beam profile data by modeling either Laguerre, Hermite or donut laser beams in various modal configurations. BeamMaker permits the user to model a beam profile by specifying the mode, size, width, height, intensity, angle, and noise content. Once generated the user can then compare the theoretically derived measurements to measurements including experimental inaccuracies produced by the various measurement instruments and environmental test conditions. Users can now analyze expected results and confirm if measurement algorithms will accurately measure the beam even before the experiment is constructed. BeamMaker can help laser engineers, technicians and researchers understand a beam’s modal content by calculating results on modeled beams for a better understanding of real laser beam profiles. BeamMaker is to laser beam analysis as a function generator is to an oscilloscope.

Integrated automatic Help linked into the Users Guide

Touch sensitive Tool tips are available on most all controls, and "What’s This" help can provide additional details. Confused about what something is or forgot how it works, just go to the top right corner and touch the "What’s This" help icon, then click on the control or menu item that you want more info about and you are taken to the explanation within the BeamGage Users Guide.

Multilingual

BeamGage comes with both Japanese and Chinese user interface. Country specific manuals can be downloaded from the
ophiropt.com/photonics web site.

BeamGage®-Professional Version

Image Partitioning

Partitioning allows the user to subdivide the camera image into separate regions, called partitions, and compute separate beam results within each partition. When using partitioning special results items can be displayed that relate to delta values between the computed centroids or peaks of each partition. Partitioning is useful to enable separate analysis of individual beams when multiple beams impinge on the camera simultaneously. This feature is particularly useful when analyzing multiple fibers in a single bundle.

Automation Interface

BeamGage Professional provides an automation interface via .NET components to allow customers the ability to build custom applications’ that incorporate the laser beam analysis and processing power of BeamGage. The BeamGage automation interface allows developers to control BeamGage programmatically via a set of “puppet strings” known as the automation interface. The automation interface was developed to provide the ability to base control decisions for a second application on results and behaviors recognized by BeamGage. With this ability users can quickly and efficiently meet their manufacturing/analysis goals with minimum human interaction.

The automation interface was designed to achieve two main goals. First, to allow the BeamGage user to programmatically do what they could otherwise do via the graphical user interface (GUI). Second, to expose stable interfaces to the user that will not change, causing breaks to their dependent code. Interface examples for LabVIEW, Excel and .NET VB are included.

Custom Calculations

If BeamGage-Standard does not have the measurement you need the Professional version permit the user to program-in their own set of calculations. User defined computations are treated the same as other BeamGage standard calculations. These custom results are displayed on the monitor, logged with results, and included on hard copy print-outs as if they were part of the original application.

BeamGage^® Laser Profiling Software		Laser Beam Profiler Accessories

BeamGage^® comes in two versions: Standard and Professional. Each builds off of the next adding additional capability and flexibility as needed for adapting to almost any configuration requirement. The software performs rigorous data analyses on the same parameters, in accordance with the ISO standards, providing quantitative measurement of numerous beam spatial characteristics. Pass/Fail limit analysis for each of these parameters can be also applied.		When performing beam profiling measurements on a laser, it is sometimes necessary to manipulate the beam in order to achieve a signal that is suitable to be measured. Occasionally, the beam needs to be sized correctly by either increasing it if it is too small, or increasing it if it is too large. Often times, the laser’s power needs to be reduced to a certain level to be imaged. Our laser beam profiler accessories allow you to achieve proper beam sizes and power levels so that you can achieve the most accurate measurements possible.
Designing Laser Beam with BeamMaker

BeamMaker helps engineers, technicians, and researchers understand a beam's modal content by creating a theoretically generated beam. Design your perfect beam profile in BeamMaker by specifying the mode, size, width, height, intensity, angle, and noise content - then configure your laser to run the as designed, and compare your actual beam to the theoretically derived measurements. The end result is knowledge about how much the real beam varies from the desired beam.
