Laser measurement today spans a wide range of applications, from industrial manufacturing and additive manufacturing to scientific research, quantum technologies, and advanced photonics. Each environment brings its own constraints, performance requirements, and trade-offs, making measurement choices increasingly critical to system performance and process stability.
The 2026 Ophir Photonics Product Catalog reflects this reality. It brings together Ophir’s laser measurement portfolio in a structured, accessible way, helping engineers and researchers navigate measurement options based on real application needs.
From browsing to decision-making
As laser systems become more powerful and complex, selecting the right measurement solution is no longer a simple specification exercise. Engineers need context, comparison, and confidence.
The 2026 Ophir catalog is designed to shorten the path from exploration to informed decision-making by:
- Organizing measurement solutions to support comparison and selection
- Providing clear context for different measurement technologies and use cases
- Helping align measurement choices with system requirements and application constraints
Whether refining an existing system or developing a new one, the catalog serves as a practical reference for technical evaluations, internal reviews, and focused discussions.
What’s new in the 2026 catalog
The 2026 edition reflects recent product introductions and evolving measurement demands, particularly in beam analysis and profiling, where accuracy, coverage, and cost considerations are becoming increasingly important.
Highlights include:
- Expanded support for complex beam shapes, including ring-core and non-Gaussian profiles used in advanced industrial processes
- New SWIR beam profiling solutions offering large active areas and high-resolution diagnostics without the cost or export limitations of traditional approaches
- Continued advances in camera-based beam analysis and software, supporting ISO-compliant measurements, real-time visualization, and production-oriented workflows
Together, these additions address real challenges in industrial processing, additive manufacturing, optical communications, defense, and advanced R&D environments, where beam shape, stability, and alignment directly impact yield and quality.
What’s inside the catalog: a quick scan
To help users navigate efficiently, the catalog is structured around three core measurement domains:
Laser power and energy measurement
Covering applications from low-power laboratory measurements to ultra-high-power industrial systems, the catalog includes thermal, calorimetric, photodiode, and pyroelectric sensors, along with compatible meters, interfaces, and calibration capabilities. Traceability and application-specific requirements are integrated throughout.
Beam analysis and profiling
A significant portion of the catalog is dedicated to beam diagnostics, including camera-based profilers, scanning slit systems, non-contact beam monitoring, and advanced beam analysis software. These solutions support accurate measurement of beam size, shape, position, power density, and stability across UV, visible, NIR, and SWIR wavelengths.
OEM and customized solutions
For system builders and laser manufacturers, the catalog highlights Ophir’s OEM offering, including compact sensors, embedded solutions, custom mechanical and electrical configurations, and application-specific designs. This section reflects the growing demand for measurement solutions that integrate seamlessly into production tools and proprietary systems.
Who is this catalog for?
The 2026 Ophir Photonics Product Catalog is designed for professionals who work with laser systems every day, including:
- R&D engineers developing next-generation laser platforms
- System integrators supporting industrial and scientific applications
- Researchers requiring reliable, traceable measurements
- OEMs embedding measurement into production equipment
Each audience approaches measurement from a different angle, and the catalog is structured to provide depth and clarity without unnecessary complexity.
How to get the most value from the catalog
To use the catalog effectively, it helps to think of it as a working tool rather than a document to read from start to finish:
- Start with your application and measurement challenge
- Use the catalog to narrow down suitable measurement approaches before diving into detailed specifications
- Treat it as a foundation for technical discussions with the Ophir team, enabling faster and more focused conversations
This approach helps ensure that measurement decisions are driven by system requirements and long-term performance considerations.
