27. If necessary, use the angular adjustment screws (both horizontal and vertical if necessary) to align the
position of the beam on the camera to the reference laser position.
28. Iterate through the alignment process for each laser until the power through the pin hole is maximized
and the beam angle as measured with the camera is within specification, while the steering mirror is
fixed in the same position.
29. Evaluate the beam angle overlap at 1 meter, see section 3.6 : Verifying the Laser performance and
System Alignment for details on beam overlap calculations.
30. After aligning with the aperture mounted pin hole and beam profile camera at 1 meter, further
precision in beam position at the exit may be required, place the camera at the exit and measure the
centroid position of each beam.
31. Repeat the steps 19 through 28 for each laser until the beam position and angular overlap are within
specification or sufficient for the application requirements.
32. While comparing the reference laser will give a good indication of the beam overlap, to be complete
each laser position must be compared to all of the others. To download the beam ‘Alignment
Verification Calculation Tool’ go to www.coboltlasers.com/downloads
33. Compare the alignment achieved with the alignment at shipment found on the C-FLEX test protocol.
34. Interate through the position and angular alignment procedure as described above until the beam
overlap at exit and angular beam overlap are simultaneously within specification. See section 8 : C-
FLEX System Specifications .
