Pumping combiner is a kernel component of high power fiber laser (HPFL). We demonstrate two types of tapered fiber bundle (TFB) end-pumping combiner able to combining multi-kilowatts of pumping laser. After the experimental test of coupling performance, the 3xl coupler is proved to have a power handling capacity of 2.11 kW with a coupling efficiency of 95.1%, and the 7× 1 coupler is capable of handling pumping power of 4.72 kW with a coupling efficiency of 99.4%. These two coupler have obtained the ability to be used in laser diodes (LDs) direct beam combining and the pumping coupling of multikilowatts level fiber lasers.
