Ask the Expert

“How do I know what gas mixture or purity of gas I need for my laser resonator?”
At Air Products, our teams of laser experts have access to data detailing the necessary purities, pressures and flows of most popular lasers.

Gases

Air Products gases, typically provided in gaseous and liquid form, enable customers in a wide range of industries to improve their environmental performance, product quality, and productivity.

Nitrogen

Supplied in cylinders, packs, through our CryoEase® service or bulk liquid tanks, nitrogen is the gas of choice for cutting stainless steel. All modes are available at high pressure and can be configured to ensure continual cutting without downtime associate when changing or refilling the nitrogen. Additionally, high-purity individual nitrogen cylinders are available for the exacting requirements to operate the laser’s resonator where premixed cylinders are not specified.

Oxygen

Available in cylinders, packs, through our CryoEase® service or bulk liquid tanks, oxygen is selecting for cutting carbon steel. All modes are available at high pressure and can be configured to ensure continual cutting without downtime associate when changing or refilling the nitrogen.

Argon

Welding with lasers is becoming increasing popular - argon can be supplied in high-volume packs, through our CryoEase® service or bulk liquid tanks to meet the demands of continual manufacturing processes.

Helium

For certain laser welding , helium is the gas of choice and Air Products has a range of supply modes with high-volume packs of cylinders being a popular choice.

Specialised Gases

When it comes to your laser’s resonator, whether you require a premixed cylinder or individual cylinders of gases, Air Products offers the complete range of high-purity gases and mixes as predefined by laser OEM’s.

The Experis® Range for your Lasing Gas

Frequently, a laser requires a multi-part mix of gases to generate the actual laser. The exact mix is stipulated by the laser manufacturer along with the accuracy of the mix.

Some machines require this mixture to be supplied in pre-mixed cylinders which Air Products supplies from its high-accuracy Experis® mixtures range.

Alternately, some laser mix the resonator gas inside the machine and here Air Products supplies high specification pure gases, again, from the high-performance Experis® range.
