| Multi-Camera Vision & Registration * |
A patent pending feature that provides an augmented reality user interface by superimposing design files on images of the material placed on the material support surface and captured by multiple cameras built into the laser system.
The AR user interface facilitates precise alignment of design files using controls that allow the design file to be positioned, rotated and scaled with real time visual feedback made possible through advanced machine vision algorithms.
This feature also supports traditional camera registration work flow using printed registration marks. |

A feature that eliminates the need for motion system over-travel beyond the edges of the raster image. |
| Design File Geometry Preservation |
A feature that maintains curves in a design file, i.e., circles, ellipses, b-splines, Beziers, and NURBS, and ensures curves are kept throughout the path planning process rather than using linear interpolation. |
| Line Segment Reduction |
A user control to reduce excessive line segmentation contained in some design files. |
| Path Deviation Control |
A user control to adjust the allowable deviation from the intended path to increase throughput. |
| OPTICS |
|
Controllable Laser Power Density 4X
1X / 13X * |
A patent pending feature that provides the unique ability to control laser power densities while maintaining a high degree of alignment accuracy of the focal plane with the material surface as well as a Gaussian beam distribution.
Power Densities: 1X (Optional), 4X (Included) or 13X (Optional) for 10.6 μm and 9.3 μm wavelengths; 52X for 1.06 μm Fiber wavelength (Included).
Normalized power density (watts/cm2) = power density coefficient x 103 x average laser power (watts). Normalized power density is the power of the material processing laser(s) divided by the area of the focal spot measured at 1/e2. |
| GAS ASSIST |
|
| Programmable Gas Assist |
A feature that allows the user to program gas type and flow rate on a process-by-process basis within a control file. |
| Optics Protection |
A barrier of clean air that protects optical components during processing. |
| Coaxial Gas Assist Attachment |
A gas assist attachment that directs air (or gas) perpendicular to the material’s surface. |
| Lateral Gas Assist Attachment * |
An adjustable gas assist attachment that directs air (or gas) laterally or at an angle to the material’s surface. |
| Air Compressor * |
A compressed air source that delivers optimally conditioned, clean, dry, and oil-free air for optics protection and gas-assisted laser processing. |
| MATERIAL HANDLING |
|
| Multifunction Material Support Structure |
A built-in aluminum honeycomb work surface designed to keep materials stationary and in focus during laser processing. Reduces back reflection and enables exhaust of laser processing byproducts from underneath materials. Includes a full-field masking material dispenser.
Configurable using Machined Aluminum Tiles, Material Support Pins and Vacuum Booster. |
| Machined Aluminum Tiles * |
An accessory that provides a rigid and smooth work surface for laser material processing. When used with cutting processes, the compatible Material Support Pins are recommended. |
| Material Support Pins * |
A set of custom machined pins for laser cutting that can be inserted into either the Multifunction Material Support Structure or the Machined Aluminum Tiles. Pins add sufficient space between the target material and the work surface to eliminate back reflection. |
| Vacuum Booster * |
An external accessory that dramatically increases the pressure differential between the surface of the Multifunction Material Support Structure and ambient/atmospheric pressure to keep materials stationary. |
| Class 4 Conversion Module for Pass-Through * |
A patented technology that enables the laser system to facilitate material pass-through in compliance with CDRH and international safety regulations for operating Class 4 laser systems. This optional, add-on module converts a fully enclosed Class 1 system into an open Class 4 system. |
