Rotating vs. Sliding Beam Expander Divergence Adjustment
Sliding focusing mechanisms for laser beam expanders cause less beam wander than rotating focusing mechanisms, but they use more complex mechanics and are typically more expensive.
Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines used for complex geometry manufacturing are expanding their material capabilities. Learn more at Edmund Optics.
