High precision, speed of operation and resistance to vibrations - these are the features that define the new Micro-Epsilon measurement systems available in the WObit offer. These compact, yet extremely advanced devices are used in optical communications, metrology, aerospace and defense industries. They allow engineers to effectively control the position and stability of laser beams with micrometer-level accuracy. Recently, WObit's offer includes modern micromechanical tilting mirrors (Fast Steering Mirror) which enable dynamic and extremely precise control of the laser beam in demanding industrial and laboratory applications.
What are high speed control mirrors?
Fast Steering Mirror (FSM), developed by Micro-Epsilon, are micromechanical devices that allow for rapid and precise deflection of the laser beam. Thanks to the innovative voice coil technology, the mirrors reach an operating frequency of up to 2 kHz, which makes them comparable to piezoelectric systems, but much more resistant to mechanical loads.
The range of motion of±1.5°provides great freedom of control while maintaining exceptional accuracy. These parameters open up new possibilities in applications where dynamic beam correction or stabilization is required - e.g. in LIDAR systems, optical scanners, production process monitoring, or laser communication in difficult industrial conditions.
Unique design – compact, light and reliable
The design of FSM Micro-Epsilon mirrors combines mechanical resistance, compact size and high accuracy. The heart of the system is an extremely flat mirror, moved by two electromagnetic actuators on each tilt axis. The use ofMicro-Epsiloneddy current sensors enables precise position measurement, which translates into accurate and smooth movements without play and mechanical wear.
The FSM3000 series mirrors weigh only about 55 g - approximately as much as a tennis ball - which makes them ideal for mobile and space-constrained applications. Thanks to their low weight and solid construction, they perform well even in extreme vibration and overload conditions, e.g. during rocket launches or work in the space environment.
Wide possibilities of adaptation to customer needs
Micro-Epsilon offers three cooperation models:
COTS (Commercial off-the-shelf) – standard solutions ready for immediate implementation,
MOTS (Modified off-the-shelf) – configurations modified according to individual requirements,
OEM – solutions adapted to serial implementations.
Adjustments may include, among others: mirror diameter, reflective coating, range of motion and control electronics, which allows the device to be precisely tailored to the specificity of a given industrial or research application. This allows engineers to create optimized control and measurement systems tailored to specific tasks - from optical quality control to robotic inspection systems.
Why is it worth choosing Micro-Epsilon solutions from the WObit offer?
WObit, as an authorized distributor of Micro-Epsilon in Poland, provides not only access to the latest measurement technologies, but alsotechnical support, application advice and preparation of complete measurement stations. This approach ensures that customers receive solutions tailored to their individual needs - from single components to complete control and measurement systems.
An innovation that increases measurement precision and process efficiency
Micro-Epsilon dynamic beam deflection systems are a perfect example of howminiaturization and mechatronic precisionare revolutionizing modern industry. They enable engineers to achieve greater measurement accuracy, faster response in automation systems and effectively compensate for disturbances in real time.
By introducing this technology to its offer, WObit once again confirms its leadership position in the field ofinnovative automation and industrial robotics solutions, helping Polish enterprises implement world-class technologies.
