Did You Know?

Most modern laser machines come with sophisticated laser controllers that consist of software, design architecture, control card(s) and electronics. The term “controller” can be used in different contexts to indicate the specific control card (e.g. motion control card), the remote control unit console that drives the laser parameters or the entire system that controls the mechanical movement of various axes and the laser parameters. In this category you can find many different types of laser controllers including: motion control cards, combined laser and galvo controllers, integrated laser control systems, control board drivers, interfaces and multi-axis synchronization units. In a typical laser material processing system, there is a laser source and mechanical motion control set up (e.g. XY linear scan or a galvanometer scanning head) both of which require active control through a human interface. As an example, in a flatbed laser engraver, a graphical interface allows uploading a 2D raster image into system, and setting the laser engraving parameters (power, speed, repetition rate, etc.). The system is then able to convert that information into electrical signals that drive the laser pulse firing and the linear XY stages that steer the laser beam along X and Y axes. This entire control architecture is comprised of motion control units, laser units, central CPU and software that bring the entire system together to work in unison.

Frequently Asked Questions

“Laser controller” or “laser machine controller” can refer to a motion control system, the remote control console unit that drives the laser parameters or the part of the system (hardware and software) that is responsible for driving and controlling the laser machine, including the output of the laser, the steering of the laser beam and the positioning of the sample on the workbench (if automated).
