Scanlab is developing new system concepts for laser welding of bipolar plates and additive manufacturing
Scanlab's Polygon scan system
The move is a result of Scanlab and Next Scan Technology's parent company realigning its organisation in the polygon scanner segment
The micromachining station at the lab is comprised of positioning stages, galvoscanners, and various fixed and beam-shaping optics.
The laboratory is equipped with a top-class, high-precision automated micromachining station based on high-power femtosecond lasers
The innovative system design with new bearing technology now enables the incredibly compact z-axis to be integrated into a laser machine in any mounting orientation
RTC6 EtherBox: industrial-grade housing for advanced scan control. (Image: Scanlab)
The new RTC6 EtherBox offers the control board in an industrial-grade casing. This means it can be installed in a control cabinet in a few simple steps.
The processing machine integrates Scanlab’s five-axis precSYS microprocessing system with a femtosecond laser and optical measurement for automatic correction of drilling results
The new SCANcube IV can be perfectly configured for the required application using different tuning and mirror variants
