Consistent, repeatable high precision beam positioning solutions
Lasers are selected for subtractive material processes on a microscopic scale based on wavelength and power. Equally important is the beam delivery system, selected for field size, spot size, speed, and positioning accuracy. Laser beam delivery systems will focus and direct the beam to create micro-size features that enable fabrication of complex structures found in modern electronics, electric and ICE motors, medical devices, optics, and prototyping. Novanta offers a wide range of high-precision beam delivery systems and components for OEMs and system integrators.
Precession Elephant III delivers exceptional drilling and cutting results with throughput speed suitable for mass production systems. The advanced multi-axis design employs Novanta’s industry leading beam steering components for challenging applications like probe card and injector nozzle drilling. Delivering a laser spot size of < 8 µm Precession Elephant III creates precise cutting and drilling patters with a corner radius of < 4 µm.
Manufacturers of micro-components have unique requirements, often requiring OEMs and integrators to customize the build to suit the application. This presents a sourcing challenge, finding modular solutions from a reliable source that enables quick, easy integration into multiple machine configurations, while consistently delivering highly precise positional accuracy, impressive processing speed, and reliable, continuous operation.
Novanta manufacturers CRS resonant scanners, galvanometers, XY galvanometer sets, servo drivers, high precision beryllium, silicon, and fused silica mirrors. These world-class components are used to build specialized machines and equipment with the most intricate laser processing requirements. As a single source solution for OEMs and integrators, Novanta reduces the time and effort to source these niche components and ensures seamless integration for custom system builds.
Novanta’s VERSIA and MOVIA 2-axis scan heads offer cost effective alternatives for high-precision cutting, scribing, marking, and coding applications. Novanta’s 2-axis scan heads are excellent solutions for flexible printed circuits and perovskite solar cell machines delivering high precision cuts and scribing patterns. The monolithic designs are thermally efficient to maintain beam position accuracy, and the added water-cooling feature in the VERSIA scan head ensures even more precision accuracy over extended operating periods.
To take full advantage of Novanta’s laser beam delivery technology, combine any of our beam delivery components and scan heads with the proper software/controller eco-system. Novanta’s ScanMaster Controller/Designer and InScript/ASC Controller eco-systems unlock proprietary features that maximize laser scanning performance.
