Recently, American fiber laser giant IPG Photonics announced the launch of a new laser series specifically designed for the additive manufacturing field.
The highlight of this series of lasers lies in its integration of IPG's unique dual beam technology, which can independently regulate and simultaneously emit core and ring beams, setting a new benchmark in accuracy, efficiency, and reliability.


Based on its profound expertise in the field of high-power lasers, IPG has launched two new dual beam rack mounted lasers:
YLR-1000/3000-AMB series laser with 1kW core and 3kW ring combination;
YLR-2000/2000-AMB series laser with 2kW core and 2kW ring combination.
The all-new YLR-AMB series laser is specially designed for the additive manufacturing industry and has the following unique advantages:
Production efficiency leap: YLR-1000/3000-AMB laser has a construction rate of up to 324 cm ³/h and a density exceeding 99.9% in materials such as Ti-6Al-4V.

Multi functional processing capability: Combining single-mode and multi-mode outputs, the total power can reach 4 kilowatts, providing diverse processing options.
Heat distribution optimization: By independently adjusting the core and ring beams, more optimized heat distribution is achieved, promoting fast and high-quality construction.
Compact design: Adopting a slim 2U 19 inch (482.6mm) rack mounted design, it is not only easy to integrate, but also greatly saves space.
These innovative achievements have undergone rigorous testing by multiple top additive manufacturing OEM manufacturers, and preliminary results show excellent performance, significantly reduced costs, and greatly improved material utilization.


Trevor Ness, Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Business Development at IPG Photonics, emphasized that "YLR-AMB lasers have completely revolutionized the field of additive manufacturing. With high power, precise control, and application specific optimization, we help manufacturers reshape new standards for productivity and cost efficiency
The YLR-AMB series lasers perform well in high-performance applications such as aerospace components, medical equipment, and custom tools. Its key highlights include:
Material performance optimization: Specifically optimized for alloys such as Ti-6Al-4V (α - β titanium alloy) and CuCr1Zr (copper chromium zirconium).
Dynamic layer adjustment: Ensure the implementation of complex geometric shapes and perfect drape effects.
