摘要:
A laser process system with multiple, independently steerable laser beamlets and including a laser and beam shaper for generating a shaped source beam, a splitter stage for generating a plurality of beamlets from the shaped source beam, a beamlet controller including an independently steerable beamlet steering mirror for and corresponding to each beamlet for independently directing the corresponding beamlet, a mirror controller for controlling each beamlet steering mirror, and an optical path including a scanning lens for directing each steered beamlet to a target area of a workpiece. Each beamlet steering mirror is a multi-axis micro-electro-mechanical mirror and the system further includes a beam dump located in the optical path for intercepting a beamlet steered into the beam dump by the corresponding beamlet steering mirror.

An indicia for marking on an object, such as a cartridge case, for representing selected information, such as identification indicia identifying the firearm that discharged the cartridge, and methods and apparatus for generating, imprinting and reading the identification indicia. An indicia includes a multi-dimensional array of encoded marks, including encoded marks determined by spectral encoding variables representing the selected information wherein each spectral variable is spectrally distinguishable from others of the spectral variables representing variables, and an encoded pattern of the encoded marks is determined by algorithmic transformation of the selected information. An indicia may also include hologram related artwork. An indicia may be an encoded hologram multi-dimensional barcode, an encoded hologram or an encoded concentric circular barcode and may be formed of a single indicia or as an array of indicia.
摘要:
A laser beam delivery system for supplying a laser beam to a computer generated hologram which shapes and divides the supplied laser beam into a plurality of pseudo flat top laser beams. The plurality of pseudo flat top laser beams are then passed through collimated optics which alter the beams so that the beams are conveyed along the optical axis in a parallel manner. The plurality of collimated laser beams then passes through a converging mechanism which facilitates converging of the plurality of separated collimated laser beams through a clear aperture of a mirror of a first repeat positioning device so that all of the light is received by the repeat positioning device and appropriately reflected thereby to a second mirror of a second repeat positioning device and then to a rear surface of an F-Theta lens. The F-Theta lens focuses the plurality of separated collimated laser beams at the object to be processed. The converging mechanism facilitates converging of all of the supplied light so that substantially all of the supplied light passes through the clear aperture(s) of the repeat positioning device(s).
摘要:
An control system for controlling movement of a product to be imaged relative to a laser and operation of a laser. The control system comprises a mechanism for obtaining drill position data from a data storage device. The control system further includes a mechanism for simultaneously sending necessary signals to alter a path of a laser beam emitted by the laser relative to the object to be imaged. The control system further includes a mechanism for providing a feedback to indicate that the path laser beam, from the laser to the product to be imaged, is suitably altered. The control system further includes a mechanism for firing the laser beam for one of burning, drilling or forming a desired formation in a surface of the object to be imaged. The control system further includes a mechanism for returning the control system, when necessary, for reading further drill position data from the data storage device.

摘要:
An imaging system for ablating an array matrix of high-density vias in a flexible and rigid desired object. The apparatus contains a mirror based x, y scanning repeat positioning and/or a single axis scanner positioning system that directs a single point of a coherent light radiation beam at desired individual mask segments. These mask segments are formed into a planar mask array. A flat field collimating lens system is positioned between the mirror scanning system and the mask arrays to correct the angular beam output of the repeat positioning mirror and redirects the beam so that it strikes a specific rear surface segment(s) of in the mask array. The flat field collimating lens provides a beam that either illuminates the mask perpendicular to its surface or at preselected optimized illumination angles. Once illuminated, the specific segment of the mask array images and processes a single or a plurality of desired holes or features in a top surface of a flexible or rigid desired object to be processed.
摘要:
A process of manufacturing micro or nanostructure surfaces or parts formed of PTFE by applying a vacuum to powered or granulated PTFE in a heated compression mold. The process further includes applying a compression anvil within the metallic mold, removing the mold from a heat source and quenching the mold while maintaining the pressure in the mold during quenching. A mold or mold insert may be manufactured from sintered metal, sintered ceramic or sintered stainless steel to allow the vacuum to be applied across a surface holding the micro or nanostructures.
