    Default DT-50W

    Hi Forum,

    I ordered a projector and its going to come with the new DT-50W scanners on board.
    Is there any of you laser gurus that have experience with this scanner.

    thank you

    Hi Ghosttrain
    Yes indeed , that's where I was looking , and no information regarding that scanner , I send a mail to both DT and the builder to request clarification
    Thank you

    They do exist, but are very new. I've seen the pictures on Goldenstar's FB page amongst other places.
    I wouldn't take any Chinese manufacturers website as evidence that something exists/doesn't exist personally.

    The mounting block is much larger, and the galvo body itself is much longer. Someone with more knowledge than me will be able to say what galvo it has been cloned/plagiarised heavily from, no doubt.

    You are using Bonetti's defense against me, ah?

    I thought it fitting, considering the rocky terrain.

    In fact, if its Goldenstar you're buying from, its probably your projector in the pictures Mimi has been posting.

    And to prove they exist...

    Wow , thanks Norty...those mirrors ...looks like some heavy lifting can be done with that

    Interesting notes...

    The Chinese have implemented a setback finally!

    I see them advertising these as 85 degree wide angle scanners

    They havent specified a beam size yet but there appears to be two mirrorsets, one with a 8.5mm x 8.5mm X mirror, and another with a 10.5mm x 10.5mm X mirror.

    Some quick math shows:


    FOR THE 8.5 MM MIRROR

    (8.5 mm) / sec(66.25 deg) =
    3.42334686 millimeters is the largest beam which can scan 85 degrees


    FOR THE 10.5 MM MIRROR

    (10.5 mm) / sec(66.25 deg) =
    4.22884024 millimeters is the largest beam which can scan 85 degrees

    Again, they didn't specify beam sizes but looking at the mirrors, 85 degrees is believeable. But for the small mirrors, the largest the beam diameter can be is about 3.5mm, and for the larger mirrors, about 4.25mm

    (If anyone is wondering where those numbers come from... 45 degrees is nominal at rest. 85 degrees optical is 42.5 mechanical peak to peak, or 21.25 degrees in either direction, from nominal. 45 degrees (nominal, at rest), plus 21.25 is the 66.25 used above. This would be the maximium mechanical angular excursion needed to reach 85 optical.)

    thanks for the math and sanity checking!

    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    Now for the next questions. If you don't mind telling us how much did this projector run you? And what was the beam specs? If the price is right I could see running beams on these in a small space like my house where I can get away with a 4mm lower power beam but scan wide as hell.
