Cavitar

In high-speed imaging, capturing clear images under extreme conditions is a challenge that industries ranging from ballistics testing to manufacturing face daily. The quest for a solution that offers precision without compromise has led to the development of cutting-edge technologies, among which the Cavitar CAVILUX Smart UHS is highly recommended for ultra high-speed laser illumination.

With a powerful pulsed diode laser light source, very short pulses, and high repetition rates, it’s an ideal light source for ultra high-speed cameras up to 10 MHz. The CAVILUX Smart UHS can generate pulsed light power at hundreds of watts at as little as 10 ns pulses. The light output is essentially monochromatic with a low degree of coherence, making it ideal for illumination purposes due to no chromatic aberrations or speckle. The versatility of pulse duration and repetition rate paired with an ideal light source make it an excellent choice for schlieren and shadowgraphy applications.

On its own, high-speed imaging is an incredibly powerful diagnostic tool. It’s not without limitations though, particularly when it involves the emission of light, like in welding or ballistics testing. The bright light can blind the camera, obscuring details that are crucial to capture. That's where laser illumination systems like the CAVILUX laser lineup come in. Laser illumination enables high-speed imaging cameras to see through bright emissions of light that otherwise would be impossible with conventional forms, and provides precision for detailed analysis of processes.
