LPC Laser Parameter Calculator - Check out your mRad

Ever wanted to check your lasers mRad?

Ever wanted to know at which distance your lasers dot is 10 meters wide?

Ever wanted to know if your new custom lense is better than your current?

Too lazy or too dumb to do some simple maths? :wtf:


Then check out the LPC - the Laser Parameter Calculator.


I designed the LPC to make it for me and others easier to calculate my/their lasers' specifications.
Its an excel file which you can download and use.
All you have to do is measure some dimensions (diameter at aperture, distance to spot, length of host) and put them in the yellow boxes. The blue boxes show you the remaining parameters.
Please report bugs and post ideas for improvement :yh:
Oh yeah and questions are welcome!




LPC - the one and only Laser Parameter Calculator

WORKS WITH ALL LASER COLOURS - EVEN WITH PURPLE! :thinking:

Nice job... thanks for sharing....

A long while back LPF member pseudonomen137 gave the Forum
a divergence calculator that I use all the time.....
He is not very active on the Forum since the beginning of the year..

I'm glad you like it.

If you are interested in lenses and optics check out the optical bench simulator.

Here's another. Use with Internet Explorer to see the graphical presentation of results.
