2-Axis Subsystems for Laser Beam Deflection 

BASIC INFORMATION 

2.1 

Introduction 

Chapters 1 to 8 of this operating manual describe the general handling of deflection units from 
the following series: MINISCAN II. See the data sheet in the appendix for the different fea-
tures. For details of the type you are using, refer to the rating plate.  

This operating manual contains important information on qualified and safe handling of the 
deflection unit. You should therefore familiarize yourself with the content of this manual before 
using the deflection unit for the first time. In case of any queries, please contact RAYLASE. 

The operating manual must be accessible to anyone who will be involved in developing, in-
stalling or using a laser device featuring the RAYLASE deflection unit. If the deflection unit is 
sold on, this operating manual or an authorized copy must be passed on with it.  

2.2 

Intended use 

The deflection unit is developed for two-dimensional deflection and focus laser radiation in a 
suitable working range. If the materials to be processed generate toxic fumes, a secure suc-
tion must be ensured. 

The deflection unit is designed for use in industrial environment and for use by trained profes-
sionals exclusively. It is made as a subassembly for laser devices. The deflection unit should 
be operated only with the specified wavelengths, laser power and beam diameters listed in 
the corresponding data sheet. 

2.3 

Delivery scope
