Laser Module LT-PLM-635-01-C1 / LT-PLM-IRB-635-01-C1 - High Precision Alignment Lasers with Small Beam Profile

06 Mar 2018

LASER COMPONENTS would like to announce two additions to its portfolio of

high-precision alignment lasers: LT-PLM-635-01-C1 and LT-PLM-IRB-635-01-C1. At

the exit point, the beams of these precision modules feature diameters of 1mm

and a squint angle of just 0.05mrad, which equals 5/100mm per metre distance

from the target. With standard modules, the aberration from the centre of the

housing is considerably higher at 8.7mm.

The small exit diameter also produces an exceptionally small dot on the target

area allowing for very precise positioning. Due to its higher divergence, their use

is recommended at distances of up to 3m. For longer distances, we recommend

using our standard version with a beam diameter of 4.5mm. Both profiles are

available in 24mm housings with M12 connections or as a mobile version with an

integrated battery in a 35mm housing.

The so called “squint angle” defines the aberration of the laser beam from the central

axis of the housing. This effect can be watched by putting the laser module on

a plane surface and rotating it along its longitudinal axis. The laser spot will then

move in a circle on the wall. The laser is positioned so it hits the target at thte desired

location. Precision modules are used whenever a target spot has to be aligned

to a straight axis.
