3-Axis Scan Head

Product catalog summary
Product Overview
The 3-axis scan heads, Lightning™ II and ProSeries 2, are equipped with a Dynamic Focusing Module (DFM) that enhances flexibility for material processing over large and three-dimensional surfaces. These scan heads focus the laser into a small spot, improving processing speed and quality, and maintain focus across the entire working field. They can adjust to varying working distances and field sizes, accommodating different parts for processing. The Lightning II FX and ProSeries 2 FX feature optics with minimal optical loss, enhancing laser beam focus stability.
Product Specifications
The Lightning™ II digital scan head offers high speed, accuracy, and stability, suitable for applications like laser additive manufacturing and micromachining. The ProSeries 2 analog scan head is a cost-effective solution for applications such as scribing and rapid manufacturing. Various optics options and mirror coatings are available for lasers ranging from UV to IR wavelengths.
Key Features
  • Highest-precision scanning speed for maximum throughput.
  • Robust and versatile system for easy job switching.
  • Options available for specific material processing.
  • System stability and reliability reduce production downtime.
  • Increased focus stability for fiber laser applications.
Technical Data
For CO2 Lasers (λ: 10.6 µm, 9.4 µm), the Lightning II and ProSeries 2 offer field size ranges from 100 x 100 mm to 1000 x 1000 mm with varying tracking errors. For Fiber/YAG Lasers (λ: 1060 nm - 1090 nm), the Lightning II FX and ProSeries 2 FX provide field sizes from 100 x 100 mm to 1000 x 1000 mm. For other lasers (λ: 355 nm, 532 nm), field sizes range from 200 x 200 mm to 800 x 800 mm.

3-Axis Scan Head-1

3-Axis Scan Head Modular, with Integrated Z-Axis Product Highlights Our 3-axis scan heads, the Lightning™ II and ProSeries 2, feature a Dynamic Focusing Module (DFM) that offers substantial flexibility to system integrators for material processing over large work fields and three-dimensional surfaces. The 3-axis scan head focuses the laser into a small spot, which improves laser processing speed and quality. The DFM ensures the laser spot remains in focus across the entire working field. In addition, the 3-axis scan head can adjust to varying working distances and active field sizes to accommodate different parts to be processed. The Lightning II FX and ProSeries 2 FX feature new optics with minimal optical loss and absorption resulting in enhanced laser beam focus stability. The Lightning™ II digital scan head offers the highest speed, accuracy, and stability, and excels at applications such as laser additive manufacturing, converting, and micromachining that require high stability over a 24+ hour period. The ProSeries 2 analog scan head is a cost-effective solution for applications such as scribing, micromachining, rapid manufacturing, and solar. We offer a variety of optics options and mirror coatings for lasers ranging from UV to IR wavelengths. Increase your system’s flexibility and field size with 3-axis scan heads • Industry’s highest-precision scanning speed for maximum throughput • Robust, versatile system that easily switches from job to job • Range of options available for processing specific material-type • System stability and reliability reduce production downtime • Increased focus stability for fiber laser applications www.Cambridg
