Dear List,
We have seen over the past couple of years, the HeCd lifetimes slowly
decreasing, over several different applications - other than SLA. They
used to run for 8-10 hours typically. Now we are currently seeing them
fade in power starting at 2-3,000 hours.
Can any of the SLA-250 users please help us help confirm,or deny this ?
It has seemed that ever since Melles aquired Liconix, and Omnichrome,
that quality has been placed lower on the priority list, than quantity.
Of the last 3 Omnichrome series 74 lasers that we have seen,
on the SLA-250's, they died at:
1,163 hours
253 hours
116 hours
These lasers came straight from the box. Shipped from Melles,
to our customer's site. (Which also took too many weeks !!)
Thank you for your help, & looking forward to all of your replies.
