I was doing some studying on galvo blanking.
Long story short: Have a laser that cannot blank with large size mirrors (10mm) that I want to blank with an additional scanset.
Have no problem getting 3 galvos but figuring out how to safely galvo blank is what mystifies me.
What's the mirror arrangement like for galvo blanking and what's the beam path like? I've read things about galvo blanking before a telescope to galvo blanking using a retro reflector with a mirror setup to ensure movements are small.
What for instance stops the beam from sliding across the X galvo (which can create the beam from reflecting somewhere undesired because it's coming in from a different angle on the on the x galvo briefly).
Can some intensity fading be achieved using galvo blanking or is it TTL only?
This is all I could find video wise showing a galvo blanking setup:
I know the intensity line on the ilda pinout is made for this exact purpose.
Is there any more information out there?
