Aerotech has upgraded the performance of AGV laser scanning heads through powerful controller functions to enhance scanner control (ESC). The new ESC function of the Automation 1-GL4 2-axis laser scanning head driver is a completely passive control loop enhancement function that ensures higher accuracy in the most dynamic motion.

With the increasing demand for higher output laser technology in various industries, quality standards are also constantly tightening. Therefore, traditional laser scanning systems quickly reached their limits.

Aerotech's 2-axis, 3-axis, and 5-axis laser scanning heads all benefit from this feature, achieving higher acceleration and smaller tracking errors, allowing users to see a significant improvement in laser processing throughput.

"The ESC function improves the performance of all AGV laser scanning head products, eliminating the need for users to change trajectories or motion commands," said Bryan Germann, Optical Manipulation Product Manager at Aerotech. Our customers need to push their scanning head products to faster and more dynamic limits without compromising accuracy. This upgrade can improve productivity as the number of units per hour can increase without compromising quality.

Widespread laser applications have benefited from ESC, including:
Impact laser drilling for electronic and semiconductor applications: ESC provides higher drilling efficiency through strict hole material quality requirements.
Laser cutting and microfabrication of display glass for automotive and mobile applications: Improving cutting speed without sacrificing edge quality means higher yield and stable quality yield.

Laser welding of medical devices: Higher frequency swing motion during welding contour can improve welding quality and minimize post-processing.
