Highly efficient laser scriber with optical-mechanical scanning

The method to perform operations of laser shearing, surface cutting and hardening, of laser thermal processing, scribing and engraving by using powerful and economical CO₂ laser, is analysed. An original modification of technological unit with unique optical system is demonstrated. This optical system provides high accuracy, capacity, and also an arbitrarily complex shape of processing line configuration for even non-metallic (including ceramic ones) plates of large size.
