They enable ultra-dynamic, rapid processing with flexible spot diameters. Full digital, model-based control is ensured with absolute precision. Up to 4 modules can be operated simultaneously over one construction field. Direct connection of a photodiode or pyrometer for process control is also possible. For more effective process monitoring, the BASE-Module can be expanded with the SENSOR-Module. The two integrated sensors not only ensure customized quality control, they also enable archiving and process control. Focus tracking is built-in for one of the sensors. Data can be preprocessed either directly in the expanded camera electronics or on a powerful frame grabber. The AM-MODULE NEXT GEN prefocusing deflection units are available in two variants: As a standard module or a high-performance module with fully digitally galvo-scanner. The high-performance module is designed for use in the manufacture of ultra-high precision components which must satisfy particularly high safety specifications. This application is of particular interest for users in the aerospace industry, automotive manufacturing and medical engineering.

Optical Deflection ±0.393 rad; Processing Speed 10-65 rad/s; Positioning Speed 10-65 rad/s; Max. Input Aperture 15, 20 mm; Digital Control via SL2-100, RL3-100, or XY2-100 Protocol Raylase’s AXIALSCAN series of prefocusing deflection units offer very small spot diameters at large field sizes or processing areas, flexibility, high deflection speed, long-term stability and low drift values. AXIALSCAN-20/-30 deflection units feature high power density in the spot, enabling new application and reduced system costs. Deflection units are designed for field sizes from 100 mm x 100 mm up to 1,800 mm x 1,800 mm. These units are available with options like motorized adjustment of the operating field steered by the stepper motor interface, high-power version with optimized Nd: YAG and CO₂ optics for up to 4 kW, as well as a high-speed version with double motor-driven Z-axis and extremely light and stiff high-performance mirrors. The AXIALSCAN-30 DIGITAL II deflection units with the LT-II-15 digital linear translator module ensure exceptionally low drift values at 20 Bit position resolution. Heat development is greatly reduced thanks to the PWM output stages used. Thanks to optimized lenses for CO₂ wavelength and 1060 to 1070 nm, the AXIALSCAN-30 DIGITAL II HP deflection units can handle laser power up to 4 kW. The pre-focusing deflection units of the AXIALSCAN-50 DIGITAL II series feature cutting-edge digital control electronics. Various tuning options are available, enabling application-specific adjustment of control parameters and, in combination with the SC mirrors, produce exceptional deflection speeds and dynamic values. The AXIALSCAN-50 DIGITAL II can be equipped with a range of tuning options (VC, LS and M). Default tunings are configurable. The AXIALSCAN-FIBER 20/30 deflection systems can be easily integrated into any laser system by means of various mechanical interfaces below, to the side (robot flange is possible) and from above. The integrated fiber collimator enables connection of the laser fiber without beam path alignment. A second external protective window can be quickly and easily replaced, with optional monitoring available. Camera and welding monitoring systems can be adapted to the process light output without aberrations. The AXIALSCAN FIBER-30 is completely dust-proof and therefore ideal for use in a harsh industrial environment. Suitable mirrors are available both for high-performance welding applications with laser power in the multi-kilowatt range and for highly dynamic applications. Optical configurations are available for all standard beam parameters of lasers and their fibers. The AXIALSCAN FIBER-50 deflection systems ensure that the laser process is highly dynamic and precise, even when the workpiece is passing under the deflection unit at varying speed. The pre-focussing deflection unit can, among other things, separate the contours of electrical connection surfaces (tabs) on batteries with precision during the foil winding process. This benefit is possible thanks to the pulsed laser beam – highly dynamic with position accuracy – that is directed from the AXIALSCAN FIBER-50 deflection unit onto the workpiece. It works with the smallest spot size on processing field sizes of between 300 x 300 mm and 850 x 850 mm. Depending on the model, the AXIALSCAN deflection units are compatible to the XY2-100 (16 Bit) protocol, the SL2-100 (20 Bit) protocol, or the RL3-100 (20 Bit) standards. They can be digitally controlled by a control card, such as the SP-ICE-1 PCIe PRO or SP-ICE-3. Lenses, protective glass, scan mirrors, deflection mirrors and objectives with optimized mounts are available for all typical laser beam source types.

Raylase’s deflection unit software makes tailor-made solutions possible and guarantees that machine manufacturers can drive their product development forward and venture into the high-performance arena. The resulting combination of lasers, laser deflection units and the corresponding software improves performance and reduces costs. The RAYGUIDE software architecture is designed to respond quickly and flexibly to ever-changing and increasingly complex applications, while simultaneously guaranteeing a high degree of product stability. RAYGUIDE offers a wide range of features, and its functional scope will be enhanced on an ongoing basis to meet your growing requirements. For customers that want to access RAYGUIDE functions from their own user interfaces, Raylase offers a software development kit (SDK). This is a program library that also incorporates all the application benefits of RAYGUIDE. The interface is programmed in the Dot.Net environment. The Multi-Point Editor is a software application for creating and editing RAYLASE correction files to adapt them to the individual opto-mechanical situation of each laser system. The correction files provided for your deflection unit by the manufacturer already take into account the respective wavelength, the aperture of the deflection unit, the working distance and much more. In this way, sufficient accuracies can be ensured for many applications. Nevertheless, each system has individual tolerances. In addition, alignment errors occur during the setup of your system, which must be compensated for in order to achieve even higher accuracies in scan field calibration. Raylase provides you with the Multi-Point Editor software free of charge. You do not need a license to use it. NOTE: When using the RAYGUIDE laser process software, the Multi-Point Editor application is already included as an integral part.

The modular, compact, robust, and pre-aligned design (CE) makes integration easy. Deflection units for Nd:YAG and CO₂ lasers are designed for field sizes from 100 mm x 100 mm to 300 mm x 300 mm. The field sizes are determined by the f-theta objective type. Submodule for other wavelengths are available upon request. The FOCUSSHIFTER DIGITAL II deflection units provide flexible software-controlled focusing in the Z-direction, high deflection speed, long-term stability and exceptionally low drift values at 20 bit position resolution. Heat development is minimized as a result of the PWM output stages used. The third dimension (3D) is not always the nonplus ultra. The FOCUSSHIFTER-14 deflection units deliberately take a (half) step backwards to significantly increase the range of applications for you as a machine builder or integrator in the fields of e-mobility, solar/photovoltaics, and electronics/IT. The FOCUSSHIFTER-14 cleans component contact surfaces (paint, oxide layers, oil, insulation), cuts flexible PCBs, glass displays or polarization foils, texturizes or structures a wide variety of surfaces and connect components, resistance-trims 5G antennas – all this in two and a half dimensions (2.5D) with automatically shifting the focus – generated by the f-theta lens – either downwards or upwards, allowing you to process different height levels of the same workpiece. The deflection units are compatible with XY2-100 (16 Bit), SL2-100 (20 Bit) or RL3-100 (20 Bit). The units can be controlled digitally using a control card, such as SP-ICE-3 or SP-ICE-1 PCIe PRO, or via an analog current or voltage interface (FOCUSSHIFTER). Lenses, protective glass, mirror substrates, coatings, and objectives with optimized mounts are available for all typical laser types, wavelengths, light densities, focal lengths and processing areas. This makes it possible to process a wide range of tasks to the highest quality standards and with optimized throughput. Using telecentric F-Theta lenses enables an almost vertical processing beam over the entire field.

Crystal-based Deflector; Scanning Angle ≤150 mrad; Scanning Speed ≤100 kHz; 488 to 3,500 nm NTT Advanced Technology’s KTN deflector module will realize new technological ideas, with ultra-high-speed scanning and arbitrary scanning. High-speed operation, which has not been supported by conventional technology, becomes possible because the light is controlled by electron transfer and an external electrical field without any mechanical moving parts. For example, when it is applied to a laser radar, higher speed object recognition will be possible compared with conventional technology. As the device features a simple structure of electrodes formed on a crystal and the chip size is very small, the optical polarization module can be mounted in a small-size housing of only 2 x 3 x 6cm. Flexible optical scanner operation is realized by devising an appropriate voltage supply method, because the voltage supply and direction of travel of the light beam correspond to each other, and the operation speed is very high. For example, the light scan angle can be made to move instantly among multiple points by inputting a digital signal, while continuous scan operation is realized by inputting an analog signal. In consequence, the device will be optimum for applications such as a laser radar or a laser scan display, by making use of its flexible operability from continuous operation to arbitrary scanning.
