Market Overview:
CW lasers are gaining popularity in various applications owing to their features such as high power, low noise and beam quality. CW lasers are available in three power ranges- high, medium and low. The market for CW lasers is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period 2018-2030. The global CW laser market by type is segmented into high power CW lasers, medium power CW lasers and low power CW lasers. High power continuous wave (CW) laser systems are used for industrial materials processing applications that require very high powers up to several kilowatts or more output from a single system unit. These systems can be used for welding, cutting or surface treatment of metals and other materials. Medium Power Continuous Wave Lasers offer an excellent combination of output powers ranging from a few hundred watts up to about 5 kW with good beam quality, reliability and long operating life which makes them suitable for many industrial material processing applications where there is no need for the very highest powers available from High Power Continuous Wave Lasers Systems but where good performance over a wide range of operating conditions is required . Low Power Continuous Wave Laser Systems typically have an output below 1 kW but with excellent beam quality making them ideally suited for precision marking , engraving , medical surgery & diagnostics as well as scientific research & development .

Product Definition:
A CW laser emits a continuous stream of photons. This type of laser is often used in research and medical applications because it produces a very consistent output.
High Power CW Lasers:
High Power (HP) Continuous Wave (CW) lasers are the most efficient type of laser used in industrial, scientific and medical applications. They offer several advantages over other types of lasers such as low operating voltage, high average power output and beam quality along with a longer life span. The HP continuous wave laser market is expected to witness significant growth owing to its wide range of applications in cutting, welding & marking operations which include automotive parts identification codes or bar-coding etc.
Medium Power CW Lasers:
The medium power cw lasers are the ones that can be used for continuous wave laser operations. The term “CW” stands for Continuous Wave and is also known as a digital or on-off laser depending upon if it operates in analog or digital mode. These types of lasers produce a very narrow beam width ( typically less than 5 MHz) and have high optical intensities making them useful in cutting hard materials like glass, metals, etc.
Application Insights:
The application segment includes automotive, consumer electronics, aerospace, medical, and other applications. The automotive application segment is expected to witness the fastest growth over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for laser products in various vehicles such as headlamps and taillamps. Furthermore, continuous wave lasers are used in a variety of applications including welding equipment in construction and shipbuilding industries.
CW lasers are widely used across multiple industry verticals due to their ability to provide high power density while consuming low energy per unit of surface area or volume compared with other technologies such as gas-discharge or incandescent lamps. This characteristic makes them suitable for several niche applications where low energy consumption is an important factor driving product adoption across end-use markets including consumer electronics & appliances and semiconductor equipment manufacturing facilities globally continuously wave (CW).
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing demand for laser products from countries such as China, Japan, and South Korea. In addition, rising investments in R&D by regional players are anticipated to fuel market growth over the next eight years.
The Asia Pacific region accounted for a revenue share of more than 30% in 2017 owing to high product penetration in key applications including medical equipment and industrial machinery & electronics assembly lines. Increasing demand for consumer electronics including smartphones and tablets along with rapid technological advancements is also driving this regional market at a significant pace.
North America was estimated as one of the largest markets on account of presence of major key players such as Coherent Inc., Texas Instruments Inc., Agilent Technologies Inc.
