Webcast Summary
Linear and rotary actuators are often used to expand the effective working area of scanner/galvo marking heads.  This presentation will discuss alignment, scaling, rotation and stitching induced errors and their combined impact on final part quality.  Advanced error correction, path planning and laser triggering techniques that help to minimize these errors will also be presented.
