Galvanometer Optical Scanner Overview
The document provides detailed specifications and guidelines for the Galvanometer Optical Scanner and its components, including mirrors and servo drivers. It includes information on mirror assembly, coatings, and scanner types.
Mirror Specifications
Mirrors are available in various models (GM0 to GM7) with different laser beam diameters ranging from φ3 to φ30. Substrates are primarily silicon, with coatings such as silver (Ag), gold (Au), and dielectric multilayer for specific laser wavelengths. The choice of coating depends on the laser type, with gold suitable for CO₂ lasers and silver for visible ray lasers.
Mirror Assembly and Mounting
Detailed drawings of mirror assemblies specify dimensions and mounting instructions. Mirrors can be fixed using screws or adhesive, depending on the model and application.
Servo Driver Specifications
The GVD series servo drivers offer P and PI control systems. P Control is recommended for applications requiring fast response times, while PI Control is suitable for high position repeatability. Specifications include power voltage, operating current, and protection features.
Control Systems
P Control outputs signals proportional to the differential between position feedback and command signals, offering fast response. PI Control integrates the time of differential, maintaining a stable state with minimal position error.
Handling and Safety Instructions
Precautions for handling the scanner and its components are outlined, emphasizing correct wiring, avoiding excessive stress on cables, and ensuring proper installation to prevent damage.
