New “sparks” series has a modular set-up
With the new “sparks” series, LOBO has introduced a product family with modular set-up and the currently brightest air-cooled multicolor lasers to the market.
With “sparks”, LOBO has presented a new range of professional laser systems with modular set-up, suitable for even the most demanding applications. In many aspects, LOBO has completely rethought the practical applications of lasers with this product line. The products are air-cooled, do not require re-alignments, offer high output power, excellent beam parameters with ultimate brightness and are suitable for continuous operation.
The new projector with its innovative exoframe design features mounting bays for high-performance laser modules, available in different colors and performance classes. With this, the application-specific configuration of a laser system is almost as easy as changing the cartridges of a printer. The patented housing allows for de-coupled and individual cooling of individual laser modules, preventing misalignment due to thermal stresses.
A “sparks” laser system can be re-configured at any time, be it for a higher output power, a wider color spectrum or in order to distribute the laser modules of one projector among several projectors. In contrast to all other customary approaches, this future-proof concept is not only extremely flexible, but also does not require any re-alignments, as no lasers are used in which beams from several diodes are layered opto-mechanically.
However, the main difference to established solutions is the fact that, thanks to LOBO's Post-Collimation Scanning Systems PCS, "sparks" systems can focus their high output power into an exceptionally thin beam, even over longer distances. This enormous power density leads to extremely effective brightness values, making “sparks” particularly suitable for effects at open-airs, building projections or widely visible beams.
