BeamPro compact footprint Laser Beam Profiler
Beam Profiler with thickness less than 15 mm
Femto Easy BeamPro beam profilers are available with the most compact footprint for laser beam measurements in small spaces.
Small pixel size down to 1.40 µm
High Resolution up to 8 Mpx
375 – 1100 nm & UV extension
We got the opportunity to try different models of BeamPro for our IR, green and UV lasers and all the cameras meet our specifications. Each camera has its own differentiation, from LP6.3 with its tiny pixels, to BP12.12 with its large sensor. The STAR software is easy to use, intuitive, and very responsive compared to other laser beam profiler suppliers
We are using large area beam profilers for the alignment of the optical paths in our machines. The software is easy to use and very intuitive. The combination of the large sensor area with the relatively small footprint of the camera helps a lot for installing the camera in industrial machines where the space is limited. In case of problems and questions, the customer support of Femto Easy is reactive and provides good solutions.
Thanks to the ease of use of the single-shot ROC Autocorrelator and the BeamPro Laser Beam Profiler, our approach of beam characterization changed dramatically. Given the speed with which reliable results can be obtained and the robustness of the devices, we now use our two Femto Easy instruments for the monitoring of several machines. The STAR software is excellent on its own right, and the API makes it simple to integrate Femto Easy devices in our interface.

2 Depending on the type of calculation, frame rate may vary.
3 Due to rolling shutter, the actual minimum exposure time to properly capture the whole beam will be limited by the laser beam size (in case of single-shot measurement) or by the laser repetition rate. For single-shot measurement : the larger the beam, the longer the required minimum exposure time. Otherwise, the slower the repetition rate, the longer the required minimum exposure time.
Optional Features
Windowless: Removal of the BeamPro sensor window to avoid potential interferences
UV extension: Increases the BeamPro wavelength range to the UV region, down to 190 nm
Additional ND filters: The default BeamPro configuration includes one ND filter (OD3). Additional filter with different specifications can be ordered (OD1 to OD4). Delivered with a pair of individual protection caps
High Dynamic Range: Software mode to increase the dynamic of the BeamPro signal acquisition from 12 to 16 bits. Not compatible with pure single-shot measurement as 2 images are necessary to build one beam profile image
Vacuum compatible versions up to 10-8 mbar: Possibility to place the BeamPro and perform measurements directly inside a UHV vacuum chamber (not available for all models, please contact us for details)
Trigger: Synchronization of the BeamPro detection to an external signal for accurate laser single pulse measurement
