Laser projectors are used for several applications like CNC, wooden framework construction, truss or laminated woods. The laser projector allows a size for size 1:1 transfer of, for example, complete component drawings from a CAD system to the working table. This can be achieved easily and with an accuracy of 1mm/m. The polygons are projected with a red or green flicker-free laser line onto almost any surface. The size, form, position and height of the projection can be changed. In addition, single letters or numbers can also be projected. The polygons can be moved and assembled into groups (e.g. nesting). The infernal Computer of the CPS can accept several geometry files produced by AutoCAD or similar programs and output the pattern of that geometry in laser light directly onto the working surface.
A single laser beam is deflected by computer controlled mirrors at high speed through patterns that can contain any combination of arcs and straight lines. By seeing the entire pattern at once, the operator can easily tell exactly where to place hold down fixtures, raw materials or pods. Z-LASER uses temperature stabilised red or green laser sources. The 2D projectors are maintenance-free and constructed for the tough industrial usage.
