    Default GM-20 accuracy

    Can I use a GM-20 to bounce into a set of galvos? initial tests seem to indicate a very consistent accurate landing, but want to ask others opinion.

    if you need added accuracy you can always add an adjustable "stop" so it does not exceed its stroke if theres some voltage change for whatever reason...

    my mobos use those shitty DC motors to bounce a beam into a set of galvos and it works fine

    although if this is for a beam table you could always put the scanners "last" after all the other GM20's and add a GM20 shutter to the scanners if you want to have to "enable" them
