Back in 1960, when Theodore Maiman built and demonstrated the first laser, he famously said “a laser is a solution seeking a problem.” They have lived up to that reputation ever since by filling needs in countless industries, and we have barely begun to tap their potential. Let’s look more closely at the types of lasers available today as well as one of the industries most affected by laser technology…manufacturing.
How Are Lasers Made?
Don’t look into the light! However, we can look into how lasers came to be, how they work, and how they are made.
Blast Chillers
When a refrigerator is opened, warm ambient from the room enters and the temperature inside the refrigerator increases. Once this happens, the fridge’s compressor activates to re-cool the air inside. Domestic fridges are designed to withstand being opened from time to time and still protect the contents inside. However, certain industries require chilling solutions with a lot more power. Let’s take a look at the power behind blast chillers.
Industrial Water Cooled Chillers
If you can’t stand the heat……get a water cooled chiller. Industrial water cooled chillers are versatile workhorses that provide on demand cooling for a huge variety of industries. Let’s take a closer look at the inner workings of water cooled chillers.
MRI Chillers
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machines are among the most valuable pieces of equipment in a hospital’s possession; not just in terms of cost, but also in terms of versatility. Providing patients with a complete image of their internal systems is an important step in diagnosing and treating a wide number of health problems. As a complicated piece of machinery, an MRI machine has incredibly specific cooling needs to keep it operational.
