Aluminum Variable-Radius Mirrors
Enable faster process head motion in high-power infrared laser cutting and welding systems with these lightweight, aluminum, variable-radius mirrors (VRMs).
These aluminum VRMs weigh just 18% as much as comparable copper optics thus allowing a motion system to achieve much higher acceleration for speedier processing, Plus, they reduce bearing wear ad extend motion system lifetime.
