At the 100m freestyle swimming event in the Paris Olympics, 19-year-old Chinese swimmer Pan Zhanle overcame adversity to set an astonishing new world record of 46.40 seconds, breaking a monopoly on Olympic championships held by European and American athletes for over 90 years. He has been hailed as the "Flying Fish" of the new era.

Pan's achievement is not only a challenge to and surpassing of personal limits but also a vivid interpretation of the Olympic spirit of "Higher, Faster, Stronger." Similarly, in another arena — the field of laser manufacturing — BWT is leading the trend in ultra-high-power laser technology, pushing new boundaries in industrial manufacturing with the same core spirit.

Higher Power: Reaching the Pinnacle of Technology

Just as Olympic athletes constantly push the limits of physical endurance, BWT is also scaling new heights in laser power. From 100kW to 120kW, 135kW, and now a record-breaking 150kW of ultra-high power, each leap represents a bold exploration of the limits of laser processing capabilities, marking a new chapter in laser technology.

BWT has achieved major breakthroughs in every stage, from light generation to transmission, detection, and application. The company has revolutionized the field by adopting CTC chip integration technology, developing a self-researched new generation of the Thunder optical platform, and employing techniques such as power beam combining and femtosecond laser-inscribed gratings. These advancements ensure high-quality, stable laser output, leading to comprehensive leaps in power, integration, brightness, and cable length. Higher power means stronger energy output, enabling easy handling of various challenging and large-scale cutting tasks, thus providing more efficient solutions for advanced industrial manufacturing.

Faster Speed: Defining New Heights of Efficiency

In the Olympic arena, speed is the key to victory; in the laser processing stage, efficiency is the measure of strength. BWT's Thunder Series ultra-high-power fiber lasers, with their outstanding performance and stable output, have redefined the limits of processing speed. Whether it's cutting thick metal plates or drilling components, these lasers can complete tasks in a short time with high quality, significantly improving production efficiency and product quality, thus creating considerable economic benefits for enterprises.

In BWT customer cutting applications, the Thunder 120kW has demonstrated faster speeds. When cutting 200mm thick stainless steel with air, its speed is 2.5 times that of a 60kW laser. When the thickness is reduced to 80mm, this advantage increases to 3.14 times, surpassing the performance boundaries of conventional lasers.

Stronger Capabilities: Unleashing Infinite Possibilities

BWT's Thunder Series fiber lasers boast powerful cutting capabilities, effortlessly handling workpieces of various materials and thicknesses while achieving high precision and low loss.

In thickness cutting tests, the Thunder 120kW shows no fear of thickness, challenging the world’s thickest plates. Whether cutting 300mm carbon steel or even thicker materials over 400mm, it achieves fine cross-sections and high-quality samples. This "stronger" capability will serve as the cornerstone for BWT's Thunder Series to exert even greater efficiency in advanced manufacturing fields such as aerospace, shipbuilding, railways, and automotive industries, injecting strong momentum into the leapfrog development of industrial manufacturing technology.

Notably, while pursuing efficiency and precision, BWT's Thunder Series fiber lasers effectively reduce material waste and energy consumption, lowering carbon emissions during production and contributing significantly to the construction of a green and sustainable industrial manufacturing system.
