Hi everyone!
I am looking for someone to build me a 1 watt or higher 405nm. I can build lasers myself but am looking for something extremely small, which is never where I accel at building. I realize the smaller the laser the smaller the sink the less the duty cycle obviously. That being said I only need a 30 second duty cycle. I will be using it to cut layers of thermal transfer printing ribbon from the platen rollers and such inside of my label printers at work.
I even thought of a 1 watt plus IR to do the job. Which I think may work better. I am currently using a 560mw 405nm purchased here on the forums and it does a good job although a little slow and somewhat difficult to get in some places. It is in a survival laser SS host with copper sink. So that size or smaller is what I am looking for.
Any ideas?
