Galvanometric optical laser beam steering system for microfactory application

This article presents a kinematic model and control of a galvanometric laser beam steering system for high precision marking, welding or soldering applications as a microfactory module. Galvo systems are capable of scanning laser beam with relatively high frequencies that makes them suitable for fast processing applications. For the sake of flexibility and ease of use 2D reference shapes to be processed are provided as CAD drawings. Drawings are parsed and interpolated to x - y reference data points on MATLAB then stored as arrays in C code. C header file is further included as reference data points to be used by the system. Theoretical kinematic model of the system is derived and model parameters are tuned for practical implementation and validated with respect to measured positions on rotation space with optical position sensor and image field with position sensitive device. Machining with material removal requires high power laser to be employed that makes position measurement on image field unfeasible. Therefore for closed loop applications optical position sensor embedded in galvo motors is used for position feedback. Since the model approved to be approximately linear in the range of interest by simulations, a PI controller is used for precise positioning of the galvo motors. Experimental results for tracking circular and rectangular shape references are proved to be precise with errors of less than 2%.
