AltSCA-2 Femtosecond laser micromachining system

Industrial setup of femtosecond technology based 3D microstructuring system

Femtosecond technology based laser microstructuring system AltSCA-2 provides laser synchronized motion control and/or integrated galvanometer scanner system to give the best speed and precision parameters required for many different industrial and scientific applications.

High speed

Highly reliable industrial grade femtosecond laser system with 76 MHz (osc. out) and up to 1 MHz (amp. out) pulse repetition rates synchronized with galvanometer scanners offers significant advantages in high speed microstructuring.

Nanometer resolution

High resolution object positioning system (XYZ Aerotech linear stages) synchronized with laser beam positioning system (galvanometer scanners) and pulse picker gives full control in space, time and energy domains, allowing to fabricate difficult objects with submicron resolution.


Machine vision

Machine vision system composed of high resolution CCD camera with MIL (Matrox imaging Library) and synchronized with Aerotech linear stages gives vision for whole system allowing to get position, shape or any feature of the object and give this information to the system.


System Control Application

System Control Application (SCA) - original software developed for convenient control of the microstructuring process.
SCA incorporates all integrated hardware devices into a single software application. Different device integration is burden away from the end user, no G-Code programming required, which makes simple user interface resulting in powerful, intuitive system that is easy to use.
WYSIWYG - What You See Is What You Get is helpful and useful function when there is need to program more difficult tasks. SCA software supports HPGL - standard printer control language for almost all plotters.

The range of possible applications:

- microoptics,
- photonics,
- multi-photon polymerization
- sensorics for biomedical technologies etc.
