Aerotech Inc has announced the launch of its AGV-CPO CORE Performance 2-Axis Laser Scan Head, expanding its manufacturing-focused product line for laser micromachining applications.
The Pittsburgh-based precision motion control and automation company said the AGV-CPO is designed to bring established manufacturing-level performance to a wider range of laser applications by combining dynamics, precision and value.
Aerotech said the new scan head shares performance capabilities and control hardware with its other two-axis laser scan heads, allowing manufacturing users to scale systems without additional control hardware or reduced performance.
“Historically, Aerotech’s AGV scanners have been users’ first choice for the most demanding laser applications,” said Bryan Germann, optomechatronics lead at Aerotech.
“The AGV-CPO blends our signature high resolution and advanced controls with flexibility and value, enabling users in a wider range of laser applications to scale their processes with minimal effort and cost.”
Aerotech said the AGV-CPO uses its CORE performance architecture, including a single controller system that can manage up to 32 servo and galvo axes through the company’s Automation1 programming environment.
The company said this approach is intended to simplify manufacturing system integration while supporting coordinated motion and data visualisation.
According to Aerotech, the scan head also incorporates digital optical encoders, advanced materials and cooling systems designed to deliver precision, high dynamics and low thermal drift for stable manufacturing processes.
The company said features such as Infinite Field of View and Position Synchronized Output are aimed at improving accuracy, reducing stitching errors and supporting consistent energy delivery in laser-based manufacturing tasks.
Aerotech said the AGV-CPO is suited to manufacturing and development uses including medical device production, electronics and semiconductor component manufacturing, additive manufacturing, and research and development involving ultrafast laser processes.
