Components

The AMALi system comprises the optical unit with a Nd:YAG Laser configured by the company Big Sky Laser, Montana, USA. Additionally, the operation of AMALi requires the installation of a laser control unit, a data aquisition unit and a power distribution. The device is handled with an operator PC. Quartz glass windows are installed in the cabin roof or in the underfloor compartment depending on installation direction.
