Abstract
A laser beam combiner housing is connected to a light pipe distribution system, and has a first beam path established for a principal lasing beam passing through an inlet aperture to an outlet aperture connected to the light distribution system. An internal mirror face transversely intercepts the first beam path and is aligned with a second laser beam path, so that the second laser beam will establish a line of incidence with the reflective mirror, and the corresponding line of reflection of said second laser beam will be collinear with the first laser beam path. The second laser beam is created by a low power visible spectrum laser generating unit, so that the light distribution pipes and corresponding reflective mirrors may be accurately aligned with the principal lasing beam path. The housing is also provided with cooling fluid to create controlled environment for the principal lasing beam.
