The functioning mechanism of the laser device is based on the conversion of the light energy of laser radiation into heat when it is absorbed in biological tissues. This allows for well-controlled local heating providing coagulation, vaporization, or tissue dissection depending on the surgeon's objectives.
The most popular wavelengths for soft tissue work are the 0.97 and 1.55 μm lasers.
When increasing the wavelength of laser radiation in the range of 0.97 µm → 1.55 µm one observes:
- Increase of water absorption coefficient
- Decrease of hemoglobin absorption coefficient
Laser radiation with a wavelength of 0.97 μm is strongly absorbed by hemoglobin while water absorption is weak, which provides high cutting properties necessary to perform bloodless soft tissue surgery.
Radiation at a wavelength of 1.55 μm is absorbed in water much more strongly than radiation at a wavelength of 0.97 μm. This effect is important for a number of applications such as interstitial thermotherapy, endovenous laser coagulation, and other applications where carbonation at the point of exposure is undesirable
With the right choice of laser radiation parameters, exposure is accompanied by minimal tissue swelling, and the level of pain and the probability of postoperative complications are reduced.
IPG Surgical Fiber LP
Bare fiber for VTLase, FiberLase S lasers
Designed for dissection, vaporization and coagulation of tissues during open, endoscopic and laparoscopic surgeries
IPG Surgical Fiber Radial
Radial fiber for VTLase, FiberLase S lasers
Designed for use in phlebology for endovenous laser coagulation
Intuitive interface
The large touch screen display makes it possible to quickly and comfortably adjust the laser beam parameters as well as the brightness of the pilot beam.
Automatic energy and time meters inform the user about the amount of energy transmitted and the duration of the laser exposure.
Main menu of the device
Phlebology mode
The user is offered the recommended extraction speed of the fiber tool in relation to the set power and energy parameters
ENT mode
The wavelength of the laser radiation is set automatically when the soft tissue exposure mode is selected
Expert Mode
FiberLase S allows you to adjust two independent beams (0.97 and 1.55 microns) through a single fiber instrument
Surgery mode
The user can select continuous or pulsed mode and set parameters for power, pulse and pause duration.
Multi-Axis Workstation Software
The Multi-Axis family of workstations are high-accuracy platforms designed to take advantage of the high beam quality found in IPG’s fiber lasers. Systems can be configured using any IPG laser, with laser processing heads available for welding, cutting and scanning applications. System options can include both basic and smart vision packages, along with part identification and process verification hardware.
The Multi-Axis software integrates control of the laser, motion systems and all system components to provide easy programming of the tool using G/M code commands that are familiar to CNC machine programmers.
Three Password-Protected Levels of System Control: Engineer, Maintenance and Operator.
User screens enable the Engineer, acting as system administrator, to easily set permission levels for each HMI screen for each level of operator and set corresponding passwords.
The system can operate in manual or programmed mode, and has functions to enable Dry-Run (execution of the full program but with the laser not turned on) and Optional Stop – that will allow a pause in the processing cycle for part inspection and other uses.
Used in combination with standard G-code programming, these capabilities provide the user with a comprehensive, easy-to-use programming and operator interface.
