Calibration of Laser Equipment
Calibration involves adjusting and verifying the performance of laser systems to ensure they operate within specified parameters. Regular calibration is necessary to maintain consistency in laser output and to prevent deviations that may lead to hazards.
Common Calibration Metrics:
- Power Output: Measuring the intensity of the laser beam to ensure it aligns with safety and operational standards.
- Wavelength: Ensuring the laser operates at the correct wavelength for its intended application.
- Focus and Spot Size: Maintaining the proper beam focus to avoid misalignment-related issues.
