StingRay and BioRay With a compact modular design measuring only 19 mm in diameter and using the industries' premier laser diodes, the StingRay delivers best-in-class performance. High-quality glass optics and sophisticated drive electronics deliver the power and control to your application to improve signal-to-noise and measurement speed. StingRay is the highest-performing top-hat-profile laser available that comes in a variety of fan angles to create the line you need for measurement and profiling applications. Offering the same focus adjustment as the BioRay, the StingRay allows the user to optimize the focus location for the best measurement resolution. BioRay is a Stingray with an included Heat Sink and Mounting Plate for Life Science applications with an elliptical beam output and a user-adjustable beam divergence (adjustable focus). With optional RS-232 control the laser power is adjustable as well as onboard diagnostics for operating hours, diode current, output power, temperature, and more. Select StingRay and BioRay models also include the pFocus and Fiber-Ready (FR) versions.
