Higher Efficiency, Higher ROI
Including a projection head for emitting wide area laser light, IPG laser heating sources direct virtually all energy onto the target material. Combined with extremely high power conversion efficiency, the cost of ownership and return on investment of a laser heating source is unequalled.
Infrared light is a remarkably effective source of heat, enabling faster, more sustainable heating processes across a wide variety of applications.
The Most Sustainable Heating & Drying Method
DLS and DLS-ECO series lasers offer dramatically improved efficiency and productivity, enabling manufacturers to both increase their profitability and engage in more sustainable, environmentally-friendly production.
Over 120 countries, including the U.S., have set a target date of 2050 for reaching carbon neutrality. Stricter government regulations to decrease carbon emissions, as well as rising energy costs, are pushing manufacturers to replace outdated or inefficient equipment.
More Efficient. More Cost-Effective.
A "Cold" Oven with Unmatched Energy Efficiency
By nature, lasers direct energy extremely efficiently, heating only the part while radiating little waste heat into the factory or oven walls. The cool environment allows for in situ thermal metrology that enables tighter process control and development.

Integrated Beam Delivery
DLS and DLS-ECO lasers are integrated with IPG projection process heads that distribute laser energy over areas as small 25 cm2 and as large as 10,000 cm2.
Smaller illumination areas are well-suited for applications like annealing or R&D while large illumination areas are a good choice for replacing convection furnaces and infrared lamps in high throughput industrial applications like battery foil drying, paint drying, and powder coat curing.
