ProLase has the ability to send and respond to control signals connected to any parts handling machinery that you need to control. The hardware required for these features are low cost, off the shelf, general purpose interface cards that easily install on your PC bus. We support many interface cards that can control the galvanometers, lasers, and parts handling machinery that are part of your laser marker.
By using off the shelf cards manufactured in very large quantities, you don't have to worry about proprietary electronics that become obsolete and unsupported. High volume, off the shelf cards are also much cheaper than proprietary boards.
Please note that some TTL outputs may require signal conditioning and we strongly suggest that optoisolation be used for all digital I/O. All of the supported board manufactures offer accessories that perform these functions.
Parts Handler / Machine Control Features:
ProLase provides 8 bits of digital inputs and 8 bits of digital outputs that are completely customizable and can be used for a variety of applications.
Below are listed some of the common uses of these control signals.
Additionally, ProLase supports analog output signals for control of galvo systems and focus control.
