Galvanometer scanners are widely used in micromaching, marking and similar applications. Every scanner consists of rotary motors, board of electronics and laser scanning mirror. The mirror is crucial optical component in every 2D or 3D galvanometric system, thus we pay extra attention to optical and mechanical properties.
Requirements for design of laser scan mirrors are dictated by laser characteristics such as wavelength, power, beam diameter, pulse width, frequency. This means either one has to select the best alternative from a large array of existing designs or create a mirror which matches ones performance requirements.
