Laser Assembly

Precise and reliable adhesives for the highest demands of laser technology

The miniaturization and increased performance of laser systems pose significant challenges in the assembly of lenses, mirrors and prisms. In the modern laser industry, there is a growing demand for durable and accurate solutions to reliably integrate these complex lens systems.

The assembly of optical components within a laser itself in particular requires a high degree of precision; even the smallest deviations can have a significant impact on the power and security of the laser. To meet these high requirements, we rely on advanced technologies and customized solutions.

Our innovative adhesives offer the precision and reliability needed for the safe and efficient use of laser systems. With low outgassing and controllable shrinkage, they guarantee the maximum performance and durability of your lasers, ensuring their reliable operation.

Optical Components

Precise alignment of optical components

Exact bonding of lenses, mirrors and prisms

Precise alignment of optics is the basis of all laser systems and is essential to meet the highest demands in industry and other high-tech sectors. Accurate positioning and alignment of FAC and SAC lenses, mirrors and prisms, achieved through an active alignment process, is critical to the quality of laser systems. For superior results, the adhesives used must offer mechanical stability and resistance to various influences in order to maintain performance over the entire lifetime of the laser.

Our highly specialized adhesives convince with low outgassing, maximum precision and controlled shrinkage for maximum power.

Housing Sealing

Optimal housing sealing of laser systems

Maximum protection and flexibility for your laser box

A high-end laser system can only develop its full potential if it is reliably protected from external influences. Even the smallest amounts of contamination or air humidity can put sensitive components at risk. Our innovative adhesive solutions for housing sealing offer perfect security. Whether cured-in-place gasket (CIPG) for reliable sealing or formed-in-place gasket (FIPG) for secure fastening and sealing of the housing seal, you can rely on our comprehensive portfolio of housing seals to provide optimum protection for your laser components - for maximum efficiency and reliability. 

Why choose DELO adhesives?

The light curing of our DELO PHOTOBOND family offers you a fast housing fixation and enables rapid further processing, while providing maximum flexibility over a wide temperature range. A special feature of our system is the secure but not permanent bonding force. This means you can easily open the laser box and replace optical components if required. 

  • Curing on demand: increasing production efficiency.
  • High environmental resistance: Resistant to humidity, chemicals and thermal cycles.
  • Fast curing: optimized production cycles thanks to just one process step.
