SCANLAB INTELLISCANDE14-405NM UV Laser Scan Head

The SCANLAB INTELLISCANDE14-405NM is a high-precision galvanometer-based laser scan head optimized for 405 nm ultraviolet laser applications. This digital scanning system is specifically designed for micromachining, UV lithography, and high-accuracy patterning where short-wavelength UV lasers provide superior resolution and minimal heat-affected zones.

Technical Specifications

Operating at 405 nm with a scan field of 14 mm × 14 mm, the system provides ±60° maximum optical scan angle and scanning accuracy of ±2 μm. The initial error is less than 10 μm, with repeatability better than ±3 μm. The 20-bit position resolution ensures perfect straightness of scan lines, critical for PCB drilling, semiconductor patterning, and precision UV marking.
