These compact service-free lasers are designed to operate under high shock,
vibration and dust conditions, with relatively high humidity and temperatures.
They do not require routine replacement parts or materials; they require only a
low voltage power source. Wall-plug efficiencies up to 50% result in a compact
size, reduced utilities, and trouble-free air cooling.

Scanning Head
The scan head is designed to quickly and precisely deflect and position laser
beams with powers up to the kilowatt range. With apertures of 20mm and
25mm, small spot sizes are achieved along with large image fields.
Very stable operating conditions as well as high long-term stability are pro-
vided by air cooling of the entrance aperture, electronics, and galvanometer
scanners supplemented by air cooling of the deflection mirrors. The compact
housing is dust proof and water spray resistant.
PC-based controller
• Optional field correction software for demanding applications
• Latest generation mother board and data storage device
• Industrial PC with open and upgradable configuration
• Built in correction files for all F-Theta lens options
• Most advanced scan head digital control board
• Windows™ 2000 or XP operating system
• Additional optically isolated I/O card
• Z-axis control software
Control Board
The PC Interface board provides synchronous, interference-resistant control of
the scan system and laser in real time. A high-performance signal processor and
the supplied DLL simplify programming under Windows. Software instructions
are loaded alternately in two list buffers processed by the DSP and output as
16-bit control signals every 10µs to the scan system. The processor automatically
performs vital steps such as micro-vectorization and image field correction.
Laser control is synchronized with the scanner movements.

FiberScan C3™ Software
Software Features Include: FiberScan C3™ software is a high performance, multi-threaded laser marking
• Multilingual internationalized solution designed to specifically run on Windows XP Professional. The user
interface friendly software entails a fully integrated driver, remote diagnostic capabilities
• COM (Component Object for worldwide support and multiple hardware interfaces for the ability to
Model) interface execute any CO2 or Fiber Laser marking system. File links to several internal
• True type font and laser
engraving fonts
databases make the FiberScan C3™ program flexible and powerful. These
• Background templates databases include a materials application system and a fixture database. The
• Controls any laser type materials application system allows a user to define a laser process, give the
• Open multiple jobs process a unique name and subsequently link the process to graphic programs.
A process can include multiple passes using different values for power,
frequency and speed on each laser pass. The database can contain and manage
many thousands of different process ‘recipes’.
The fixture database allows the user to control fixture offsets and define step
and repeat processes. Just like the material database, any lasing job can use any
fixture defined in the fixture database. The links allow all appropriate graphic
and process information to be automatically loaded when the operator selects
the lasing file. At any time the operator can change the links. For example a
lasing job that is normally marked on stainless steel, can be marked on brass by
selecting the brass process file prior to executing the job program file.
Operators don’t have the need to remember fonts and logos for a particular job
because FiberScan C3™ automatically performs all required graphic loading.
FiberScan C3™ does not require users to learn any programming languages or
special codes and provides all of the flexible and graphic controls that users
are accustomed to such as radial marking, aspect control, character spacing,
angular rotations and full justification.

Application Research Center
Laser Photonics maintains an applications lab for processing customer
samples and assisting with process development. Our applications lab has the
latest testing equipment to analyze all of your application needs.
For marking applications, we provide the highest quality analysis of each and
every mark using our Mark Quality Assessment™ (MQA™) software. With our
MQA™ software, we have the ability to guarantee and verify the accuracy and
quality of our marks.
The screen shot below demonstrates how the MQA™ software reads the level
of pixels in the material marked. The section in red has been analyzed with
the MQA™ software. The high and low pixel values demonstrate the overall
contrast of the mark.
This procedure can be applied to various different marking processes and types
generated by our Fiber Laser marking systems. We will prepare and research
all applications within a matter of two to three weeks and provide a detailed
report free of charge.

Safety Considerations During Operation
1064 nm wavelength laser light emitted from this laser system is invisible and may be harmful
to the human eye. Proper laser safety eye wear must be worn during operation.
As an added level of security, a redundantly switched safety interlock system helps prevent
accidental exposure to excess laser radiation. Plus, the system is equipped with an electrical
power manual reset, a key-locked laser power switch and a remote interlock connector.
Finally, the system has audible and visible emission indicators with five (5) second
emission delay settings. All these features, in combination, constitute the laser radiation
safety system, which allows the FiberTower™ Series of equipment be used in a safe and
secure manner.
