OverviewLaser scanning heads (2D and 3D) direct laser beams by mirror reflection to scan across a work area. Fast, precise scanning reduces required system motion and increases process throughput. IPG scanners integrate with IPG lasers for industrial applications such as welding, cutting, cleaning, ablation, marking and additive manufacturing.
Key features- Power handling (multi-mode): up to 2 kW (mid-power), up to 6 kW (D20), up to 12 kW (D33 / 3D)
- Ingress protection: IP67 available on higher-power models
- Clear aperture options: 12 mm, 20 mm, 33 mm
- Scan field widths: up to ~320 mm (wide-field lenses available)
- Field shapes: square and rectangular scan fields
Wide field lensWider scan fields increase the laser processing area, enabling more cuts, welds or wider cleaning per position and reducing overall motion. Both square and rectangular wide-field lenses are available to match application geometry and throughput requirements.
Integration Control Center- Direct connections to scanner, laser, robot/PLC (Fieldbus), PC and LDD weld measurement
- Industrial Fieldbus support: Profinet, Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT
- Industrial cable package and multiple mounting options
