Scan systems transform lasers into highly flexible processing tools. The range of functionality strongly depends on both the controller and the scan system's servo electronics. The servo electron [..]

A correction file enables compensation of system-specific optical errors. Barrel and pin-cushion distortion are produced by the arrangement of the mirrors and characteristics of the F-Theta objective. [..]

cps ( characters per second) is the number of characters/symbols that can be marked in one second. Marking characters and symbols is a standard application for laser scanners. Because the number of ma [..]

SCANLAB offers galvanometer scanners equipped with analog position detectors, as well as versions with digital encoders. Digital encoder products include the field-proven de-Encoders and the further-e [..]

Dither is positioning noise of the scan mirrors in the time range of a few milliseconds. Independently of their activated motion, scan mirrors oscillate irregularly across a broad frequency spectrum f [..]

Drift is alteration of the image field over a long time period (from five minutes up to several hours). At long time scales, mechanical and electronic effects occur that influence the image field. The [..]
