Camera Adapter vision for scan heads The camera adapter enables camera-based observation of a gal- vanometer scan head's working field. Typical applications include process monitoring or determination of a workpiece's orientation during laser processing. The camera adapter ensures easy integration into new as well as existing systems. The adapter's mechanical interfaces enable straight forward mounting between the scan head and laser flange. The system allows 4 alternative orientations of the objective with camera To facilitate monitoring of work surfaces, light arriving from the workpiece is decoupled via the adapter's beam splitter and direc- ted through the camera's objective onto its imaging chip. The laser beam on the other hand passes practically unattenuated through the beam splitter to the scan system. Optical configurations are available for various wavelengths. Customers can freely select a camera suitable for their requirements and attach it via a C-mount. The camera adapter is specifically designed for maximum observa- tion field size and its integrated iris diaphragm can be adjusted for optimal imaging quality. In addition, color or interference filters The camera adapter is also available as a part of SCANLAB's camera vision package.

Camera Adapter The camera adapter is mounted between the scan head's beam entrance and the laser flange (see drawing). The bore holes at the camera adapter's beam entrance and exit side are compatible with the mounting intellicuöe® scan heads from SCANLAB. The beam splitter housing can be adjusted so that the camera and objective unit are oriented either up, down or sideways (see The camera adapter enables camera-based observation of a scan head's working field. Therefore, a dichroitic beam splitter inside the beam splitter housing decouples light reflected from the illuminated workpiece...
