Nutfield Technology's 2-mirror, 2-axis galvanometer Scan Heads provide the capability of
deflecting optical beams in an X/Y configuration for all possible laser applications. The
synchronized actions of 2 galvanometer servo-controlled turning mirrors direct the laser beam
to specific locations on a target material surface in both the X and Y directions.
