Saturn IB Optical Scanner for 1mm - 4mm apertures /Scamerjjjjy Pictured with 3mm Y mirror APPLICATIONS ■ Laser entertainment (light show) displays ■ Small-beam Tomography and Microscopy ■ Small-beam Laser Marking ■ Optical Layout Templates ■ Raster Image Projection UNIQUE ScannerMAX FEATURES ■ Stronger magnetic field ■ Stronger rotor and shafts ■ Integrated back-supporting mirror mount design ■ Long-life SV30/silicon dioxide ceramic, hybrid bearings ■ Trapezoidal position sensor with high output and low noise ■ Cooler-running motor magnetic design BENEFITS ■ Highest-speed small-mirror scanning and positioning ■ Wide-angle scanning, up to 110 degrees optical ■ Convenient package size, compatible with many existing X-Y mounts ■ Low coil resistance for low heat generation during scanning ■ Low thermal resistance for enhanced heat removal ■ Low wobble and jitter GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Saturn 1B optical scanner is specifically designed to achieve the highest acceleration and RMS duty cycle of any motor-driven-mirror in the 1mm to 4mm aperture range. Applications include laser entertainment displays and small-beam laser marking and small-beam galvanometer-based raster imaging. Due to the very-small-diameter moving magnet, along with the use of special bearing materials, the Saturn 1B boasts the highest peak torque-constant-to-inertia ratio of any moving magnet galvanometer scanner available, as well as a motor-constant-to-inertia ratio that is more than 90% greater than even those competitive galvanometers having twice the rotor inertia. The Saturn 1B rotor construction along with the patented X3 magnetic circuit allow this scanner to achieve scanning speeds of ILDA 60K / 5kHz small signal bandwidth with far less drive power and heat generation than ever before. Speeds of ILDA 90K / 7.5kHz small signal bandwidth are also routinely delivered to clients. The Saturn 1B incorporates all of the other design features of other ScannerMAX Saturn-family scanners, including a half-inch round body diameter, back-supporting mirror mount design, and high-output, low-noise position detector. The Saturn 1B is now available with coil configurations optimized for laser display, and certain imaging applications.

Saturn 1B Optical Scanner for 1mm - 4mm aperturesSaturn 1B-80S Performance with selected ScannerMAX mirror sets 3000 Scan Angle (Degrees Optical peak-to-peak) 1. Graph denotes theoretical maximum performance of the scanner due to thermal limitations, with case at 50°C. Other factors may prevent the scanner from reaching this maximum, such as servo driver and power supply. 2. Angular specifications are in mechanical degrees. For most applications, optical angle = 2x mechanical angle. 3. Saturn 1B versions -80P and -80S use different coil configurations, beneficial in certain imaging...
