Page 6: What Is A Laser And How Does It Work
Kvant Lasers s.r.o. Burstberry - 1 2.1. What is a laser and how does it work? What is a LASER? The laser is a bunch of energy waves (streams of photons called radiation) with the same amplitude and faze that are flowing in the same direction; meaning they are coherent – they stick together and form a laser beam. - Page 7 Kvant Lasers s.r.o. Burstberry - 1 case with systems from far east manufacturers and with re-branded lasers that are being presented as European makes. Scanning System A scanning system is essentially two tiny mirrors, each moving on X or Y axis. By working together they can “scan”...

Page 11: Scanning System
Kvant Lasers s.r.o. Burstberry - 1 2.5. Scanning System The product warranty does not cover the damages to the scanning system caused by improper use of the scanning system or by incorrect programming. Therefore it is essential to understand how the scanning works and where are the limits of it. In this manual we will explain only the basics of it but it is the responsibility of every user to educate themselves so they can avoid damage being caused to the scanning system and costly repairs. - Page 12 Kvant Lasers s.r.o. Burstberry - 1 As an example we’ll work with the star effect shown below and with the parameters of quality scanning system: Let’s say the star effect is made of 300 graphical points (including non-visible blanking points) and we know that the maximal scan-rate of our scanning system is 35kpps @ 8 degrees (= 35.000 points per...

Page 27: Beam Alignment
Kvant Lasers s.r.o. Burstberry - 1 6. Beam Alignment It is possible that due to transportation, rigging, moving around or vibrations caused by various elements during a set up or laser performance some of the internal optical parts can move slightly resulting in colour misalignment. - Page 28 Kvant Lasers s.r.o. Burstberry - 1 Beam alignment principle. There are three laser modules within this system where each module produces one of the basic RGB colours (red, green or blue). The goal of the alignment procedure is to align all three beams (colours) so they overlay each other nicely while they hit exact centre of the bottom scanning mirror.

Page 29: Beam Alignment
Kvant Lasers s.r.o. Burstberry - 1 6.1. Beam Alignment 1. Loosen 2 silver bolts that hold down the colour alignment mechanism cover and remove the cover. 2. Power up the system as normal. 3. Firstly, it is necessary to align a colour with the longest beam path between the laser module output and the scanning system in a way so it hits the exact centre of the bottom scanning mirror –... - Page 30 Kvant Lasers s.r.o. Burstberry - 1 Always loosen one of the screws in the pair first, before tightening the 2nd one down. All alignment screws A,B,C and D must be fastened at the end of each beam alignment procedure. Even if only one of them is loose, there will be not enough internal pressure on the pivoting bolt (E), which may result into misalignment of respective colour.
