PART # 8J06011. REV 01 User Notes PART # 8J06011. REV 01 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 WHAT IS BEAMPEEK? The Ophir™ BeamPeek™ is designed to analyze laser beams up to 1kW. Its optical design enables measurement of both 532nm and NIR wavelength lasers. It is designed for use inside Additive Manufacturing (AM) chambers and can simultaneously measure power as well as profile the laser beam. - Page 3 PART # 8J06011. REV 01 User Notes PART # 8J06011. REV 01 Failing to use the proper lens for the beam’s wavelength can lead to incorrect NOTE power readings or beam dump damage. Typical AM machines are equipped with high power lasers which could heat the measurement equipment enough to interfere with the accuracy of measurements.

Connect the USB 3.0 (3) cable provided with the BeamPeek to the PC. The green LED will illuminate when connected.

PART # 8J06011. REV 01 User Notes PART # 8J06011. REV 01 Figure 6: BeamPeek tools: temperature sensors reading, focal plane and Optical axis position 3.0 OPERATION BeamPeek is designed to measure beams with diameters from 35um at the focal plane, up to 10mm at entrance aperture (can be evaluated on cover cap) and divergence angles below 0.012mrad. - Page 8 PART # 8J06011. REV 01 User Notes PART # 8J06011. REV 01 BeamPeek is equipped with three lenses, two F=20mm (one for 532nm, one for 1030 – 1080) and one F=12.7mm (1030nm – 1080nm). The beam dump can absorb and dissipate energy for up to 2 minutes at 1000W PART # 8J06011. REV 01 and still be handled without need for protection.
- Page 9 PART # 8J06011. REV 01 User Notes PART # 8J06011. REV 01 To set up BeamPeek: 1. Turn on the beam guide. 2. Place the BeamPeek so that the beam guide is centered on the cap. For more accurate positioning move the machine bed so that the BeamPeek top is as close as possible to focal plane (approximately 162mm downward).
- Page 10 PART # 8J06011. REV 01 User Notes PART # 8J06011. REV 01 measurements should be performed with extra care for laser spots with diameter under 100um and or more than 15mm required position. Starting with the bed at upper limit will not cause any damage. 4.0 MEASUREMENTS Use BeamGage Professional for both beam size and power measurements (refer to the BeamGage User Guide for installation instructions).
