Matheson’s LaserPro systems for assist and resonator gases are designed to meet and exceed the laser industry’s demanding requirements for gas purity, pressure and flow. All of our equipment complements our line of assist and resonator gases.

Assist Gas Process Equipment
Assist gases, Nitrogen or Oxygen, are supplied to the nozzle to assist with cutting by removing the metal that has been heated by the laser beam. Argon and Helium are used as assist gases for welding applications. MATHESON’s LaserPro™ assist gas equipment provides the high flow capacity with constant delivery pressures up to 1000 psig. Dome loaded regulators for assist gases are able to provide these flows and pressures with the economical pricing of a single stage regulator and the consistency of a more expensive two stage regulator. These are available for both cryogenic and high pressure sources.

Typically, Oxygen assist gas systems require lower pressures (250 psig and lower) and lower flows (< 1000 scfh), while Nitrogen, Argon and Helium systems require higher pressures (200 psig and greater, typically 450-500 psig) and higher flow rates (up to 6000 scfh and greater).

In addition to regulators, we offer wall mounting and installation kits, including hoses, fittings, and filters.

Resonator gases are used to generate the laser beam, and the gas delivery system should be designed to provide a continuous supply with constant pressure while maintaining the purity of the gas from the cylinder to the laser. MATHESON’s LaserPro equipment is designed using high purity materials and processes to ensure purity throughout the system.

LaserPro regulators are manufactured using barstock bodies with stainless steel diaphragms. Diaphragm valves for isolation and venting incorporate the same materials.

LaserPro switchovers incorporate the same high quality materials and processes as our regulators, and provide an uninterrupted supply of gas to the laser. Many options are available for these switchovers, with high and low pressure isolation, venting, and alarms, just to mention a few.

Many types of systems are available, from simple regulators to complete wall or rack mount switchovers for pure gases or mixtures. Source panels or point of use panels are also available.
