Thermoelectric Coolers for Projection Lasers




Temperature stabilization is critical for high-power laser projectors used in cinemas and light shows and heat must be quickly dissipated. Laird Thermal Systems UltraTEC™ UTX series is a new generation thermoelectric cooler ideal for high heat pumping applications such as laser projectors. The robust module construction features a higher thermal insulating barrier and deliver a 10% boost in cooling capacity compared to standard thermoelectric coolers.



Thermoelectric Coolers for Projection Lasers






Temperature control in high-power laser projectors is critical to ensure proper functionality, long life operation and crisp image projection. Not only can chillers provide a cooling solution for many projectors, but ambient liquid systems with thermoelectric coolers offer simplified spot-cooling to provide superior temperature stabilization that maintains peak performance of the laser.

Spot Cooling for Industrial Lasers & Optics

Introduction

With an increasing demand for advanced industrial manufacturing, laser systems have become the most important fabrication tool. While high powered lasers such as CO2 lasers are used for coarse cuts of metals, ultrafast lasers are used for fine cuts and polishing of semiconductor materials. Fiber lasers have the versatility to do both. In today’s consumer electronics, electrification of vehicles and green energy are driving the need for advanced laser machining and additive machining of complex materials.

Next-Generation Thermoelectrics for Real-time PCR




PCR Thermal Cyclers utilize Peltier technology to precisely manage set point temperatures and ramp rates. Standard thermoelectric coolers cannot withstand the mechanical stresses induced by rapid temperature changes in these environments. The enhanced PowerCycling PCX Series from Laird Thermal Systems offers precise temperature control at faster ramp rates to significantly improve and speed up PCR testing. 



Modern Thermoelectrics Designed for Point of Care Testing (POCT)




Point of care testing enables medical staff to deliver real-time test results within an hour. To ensure accuracy and long operational life of test devices, thermoelectric coolers are used to provide precise temperature control. Point-of-care PCR testing devices must handle hundreds of thousands of thermal cycles throughout its life with minimal degradation to the thermoelectric cooler. Our PowerCycling PCX Series thermoelectric cooler features a unique construction that is tested to survive in long term thermal cycling applications. 


Cooling Solutions for Autonomous Systems


Advances in autonomous technologies, such as smart headlights, autonomous systems for collision avoidance, and infotainment systems, require enhanced thermal protection of critical electronics to ensure optimized performance. These emerging intelligent autonomous systems are increasingly complex while decreasing in size and weight. Packing more functionality into smaller footprints has increased the heat flux density and thermal challenges in autonomous systems.
