    Lightbulb RE-Building my RGB scanner. To a Beam-Raider :-)

    I`m now tired of my RGB scanner in my wooden box.
    I`m now totally re-building my scanner from the beginning !
    My old scanner had: Red lasers first, blue, then green..

    This is what my NEW RGB scanner will have :

    ¤ total of 900mW analog White Laser DPSS

    ¤ DT-40 Scanners

    ¤ 16 Adjustable Bounce Beam mirrors

    ¤ Replace position of lasers (more blue output)

    ¤ 10mm Alu base plate

    ¤ ILDA in \ out connector

    ¤ Inside Case laser Temp LCD



    Well that is what I know so far..
    I dont post any pictures here on the forum (take to long time from Norway)
    But I`m EVERYDAY update pictures from my Phone directly into my blog

    So if you want to se my project getting finnish from start to end,

    you can se my blog here: http://www.liteglow.vox.com/

    (Day ONE at bottom, and the newest pictures on top...)



    I consider to do something new....
    To turn the galvo facing UP, to a mirror in 45`angle with adjustment...
    Then I got the beam higher up (more easy to mount the bounce mirros)
    and I got a change to adjust the beams 360degree all way around the box if I want..
    And I can adjust it Up and down so you dont have to move the damn big laser case everytime you want to adjust it some small inces

    plz add some tips and ideas if you have any to share
    I`m not done cutting the base plate yet...

    ( I added a picture of the setup of the Mirrors and galvo, dont look at the lasers)



    Thanx

    thanx

    Yes I have some pictures of the LaserNet beamRaider scanner
    It`s maybe not my goal to make it exact like that one..

    But I will try to make it with the same ideas.
    I will have bounce mirrors, but I will also have a lumia wheel effect in this box !



    thanx for looking.

    Default UPDATE !!

    Here is a update

    LINK: http://liteglow.vox.com/

    all 4 lasers mounted on the base-plate.
    all power supply mounted on the Base-plate !

    Galvo is mounted (no pics yet) ...

    What is next is to make a ILDA port in and out.
    Make a Easylase Housing to my DAC with ILDA out-port !

    Then I need to order many many mirrors to use on the beam-raider setup


    cheers..
