HALIDE - MegaWatt Pulsed Eyesafe Laser Technology to Disrupt and Expand Global Cleaning Markets

HALIDE项目通过开发改变游戏规则的激光技术来解决实现清洁增长的全球挑战，该技术将彻底颠覆工业激光清洁市场，并使激光清洁技术能够在公共空间内使用。该项目提供比商业最先进的功率提高10倍的功率，将开发新型光纤和兆瓦级脉冲高功率激光器，这将使英国制造业处于高增长激光清洁市场的最前沿。HALIDE项目将展示在人眼安全激光波长下提供功率和脉冲能量的能力，该激光波长可与现有的1064nm（非人眼安全）激光清洁工具源相媲美。该项目将进一步展示15xxnm激光器与现有1064nm系统实现成本平价的能力，同时开发掺铒光纤的批量生产工艺。项目合作伙伴将通过构建一个紧凑、便携、眼睛安全的激光清洁工具技术演示器，向潜在客户和投资者展示这种能力。

The HALIDE project addresses the global challenge to achieve clean-growth by developing game-changing laser technology that will totally disrupt industrial laser-cleaning markets and enable use of laser-cleaning technology within publicly-accessible spaces.Providing 10X power increases over commercial state-of-art, the project will develop novel optical fibres and MegaWatt, pulsed high-power lasers that will uniquely position UK manufacturing at the forefront of high-growth laser-cleaning markets.The HALIDE project will demonstrate ability to deliver power and pulse energy performance at eye-safe laser wavelengths that are comparable to existing 1064nm (none-eye-safe) laser-cleaning tool sources.The project will further demonstrate ability to achieve cost-parity for 15xxnm lasers with existing 1064nm systems but developing volume-manufacturing processes for Erbium-doped fibres.The project partners will demonstrate this ability through building a compact, portable, eye-safe laser-cleaning tool technology demonstrator to potential customers and investors.
