17 Jun 2011 If you need a metal mirror to be mounted at exactly 45 degrees, LASER COMPONENTS has the ideal product. We offer mirrors where the reflecting face is at exactly 45 degrees to the base within 1 arc minute. There are also many choices of metal for the mirror, including copper, aluminium and stainless steel. Most surfaces can be dielectric coated, for example, an aluminium mirror substrate coated for high reflectivity in the UV and visible spectrum.
Copper bending mirrors are ideal for use with high power CO2 lasers or medical Er:YAG lasers as they maximise heat removal.
Stainless Steel bending mirrors
A medical industry customer found the traditional adhesive glass on metal bonding technique insufficient as the mirror flatness was distorted and the glass mirror moved over time thereby losing alignment of the precision scanning equipment during use.
Using a one piece stainless steel bending mirror significantly simplified assembly of the equipment and improved productivity, as well as, importantly, improving consistency of the equipment in the field. A solid metal bending mirror allows simple replacement of the mirror during on site servicing, when factory based alignment equipment is not available.
