MEES Department awarded measurement instrument

The William States Lee College of Engineering department of Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science (MEES) was one of 12 institutions, who submitted an application to Gentec-EO and received an award.  Given the choice of many different awards, the MEES department selected the UP55N-300F-H12-INT-D0, which is a thermal detector for laser power measurement up to 300 W.

With the help of Dr. Jaime Berez, the MEES Department received this donation from Gentec-EO. This thermal detector will be used for diagnostics of the lasers on additive manufacturing machines in order to understand the impact of their off-nominal performance on the quality of the produced products.

The Gentec-EO company is a manufacturer of laser beam measurement technologies. They specialize in laser beam and terahertz source measurement and analysis. Gentec-EO offers the broadest range of off-the-shelf and custom solutions.
